Very nicely done and explained very well - much appreciated!

Thanks so much for this. Learning AE is so much more relaxing with the voice of Steve Buscemi.

Wow I'm learning AE and am past the learning curve of knowing my way around it. This tutorial pushed me at the end and I almost stopped at fractal noise effect thinking it wouldn't make that much difference since it looked really good already, but I pushed my self on and I am so glad I did. What an extra special touch it made. This tutorial was very helpful.Thank you.

Looks insanely convincing! Always nice to see what you can get out of ae if you're smart

They keyframe smoothening is the most awesome discovery since I use AE.

[@gecetreni-umitk]

thank you. very useful. for the "softening" of the keyframes it is worth to try to select the keyframe and select one of the ease options at the bottom of the graph tool. thanks

You know, I love things like this. I'm trying to get a project off today and I needed animated opening curtains. I haven't got the time to build so just purchased from your site. Looking forward to using it in my little series coming up. Thank you.
