👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
i just want to say thank you !! and i want to ask you pls , i can see you r man for the job.... i am very impressed by the intro and autro of "the continental " tv show can you help with ideas how it was created ..like something close to analyse it for us ,,i know you make tutorials very good tho ...i want to be like you when i grow up - but can you pls pls help with the question how this was made ....
My pleasure! 👍 Sure;
I can see that they use a lot of alpha/luma mattes (masking based on transparency or brightness values) with videos/stock footage, a lot of tint (color remaping) effects on inverted contrast (white becomes black, and vice versa), some 3d elements and scenes, like the bullets, coins and the car scene. Most of this look is achieved by creative color remaping, to create a graphic look. And they are mindfull of transitions matching the movement of previous scenes, making shots more smooth and reactive.
Does this help?
I can probably do a video on doing something similar at some point. Could be fun.
Ps. I would recommend not growing up too much. Stay young at heart and curious.
THANKS for the answer !! i would love to see similar video tutorial and learn from you ...Have a great day ..or night !@@MotionGraphicsandCheese
My pleasure 👍 thanks for the idea/feedback! Its always a good challenge to analyze other videos. Thanks and likewise!
Really quick to help anyone out. The graph editor part is way to fast. Mine doesn't seem to be on your settings somehow. Idk explain it better
It might be because your graph editor is set to value and not speed, like mine. If you enter the graph editor, and look at the bottom, there are a lot of buttons. If you click on the second one that looks like a box, a list appears. Select the one that says speed graph.
In the displacement map fx:
When i change the max horizontal displacement whole text are displace. Could you please tell me what can i do now?
Hej, sure, the next step is applying a tint to your distortion layer, and setting black to 50% gray. That way it only distorts the brightest values.
Did that help?
@@MotionGraphicsandCheese Sir, When I changed the value of 'Max horizental displacement' my text gone to right side that means text changed its value of scale. If you don't understand, can you give me your messenger or telegram id to send you my problem. Sir.
Ok, sure, you can send it to this mail and ill take a look:
mg.and.cheese@gmail.com
Why when I select the graph editor mine doesn't end up lookin like the scale at all...my first point is all the way up to 110...
Of you are talking about the text in the beginning of the video, then it makes sense. At the start of the timeline i set the scale to 90 and at the end to 110 so it animates between those 2 values
for some reason, the wipe is not working for me. i have the source layer set to noise distortion but the text just fades uniformly
Hm, did you set it to look at not just the source layer, but also at the masks and effects of that layer?
I have a hard time with the 2:47-2:58 part. Can you break it down a little?
Sure. The text part where i write "time*30"?
Its called an expression, which is just a small piece of code that affects a property. In this case im asking it to look at the current "time" and multiply it by 30. And this updates the value of that property, so for each second, it adds 30.
Did that make sense?
@@MotionGraphicsandCheese thanks for replying. I was able to figure it out after rewinding multiple times. Appreciate the help.
Ok, cool. My pleasure 👍
Mind giving me the pf?
great video btw.
Thanks! There is a link to the project files in the description. 👍
I dont see the pf in the description my friend can you give me here ?
Hey. The link is in the newsletter page. You can have it here as well:

Love u bro thanks@@MotionGraphicsandCheese
bro this is plugin free?
Yes, I try to not use any paid third party plugins when making tutorials.
how does one do this in davinci resolve?
Hey, the principles are the same. You would be able to use distortion and blur maps. I can make a tutorial for fusion, in Da vinci resolve at some point 👍
@@MotionGraphicsandCheese thank you so much… some good davinci tutorials are in serious need as most of yt is flooded with after effects tutorials. Would really appreciate you making them
My pleasure. Ill look into making some soon. Fusion is also an awesome tool.
Whats he even saying in the beginning? How do you get to the end of the keyframe? What does he press? When I click end it doesn't do anything....
To cycle between keyframes you kan press j (previous keyframe) and k (next keyframe). Page up and page down allows you to move the timeline cursor 1 frame forward or back respectively.
Home and end takes the timeline cursor to the start or end of the composition respectively
me counting how many times he said " bad boy "
Haha, i know! I also say "so" , "actually" and "sexy" way too often
okay that was difficult asf
Do you mean the setup was too complex? Or it was difficult to follow?
@@MotionGraphicsandCheese nah dude you did good with all of your explanation, it's just me having difficulties.
Ok, fair enough. 👍
Hahahahahahaha😄
@Motion, Graphics and Cheese - The instruction ityself was great, but you need to get a better pop filter or adjust your gate.
I.e. Your essessss are really pronounced.
Viewers will tolerate some graphical issues, but the human brain revolts/retreats from elements like bad audio becasue its a physical thing like finger nails on a chalk board, which means they prolly won't return for further videos.
Hey, thanks! Yeah, I know, I'm trying to get a better setup. I've been using a pop filter in the new videos, and adding more de-esser to my voice. I've been going through some audition tutorials to improve it. If you have any additional tips or can refer me to some good tutorials, I would appreciate it.
True, that's why horror films can have crappy image quality, but the sound still needs to be good. Thanks for the feedback!
God you speed wayyy too fast through your tutorial, its very hard to follow even for someone who uses AE regularly.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. Its hard to figure out the right speed, since people dont want to watch a long tutorial.
None of this works....you go way to fast to explain anything. Not for beginners at all. Half of what you explain doesn't even make sense....you're expecting everyone to already know how to use this program. What's the point of teaching if you're gonna act like everyone knows it already? Slow down, say your words right. Then it might make sense.
Hey, thanks for the feedback! You are probably right that this is above beginner level. It can be hard to remember that people who arent familiar with the program, dont know all the words.
If it helps, i would recommend watching tjis video first, where i try to explain individual parts of after effects:
th-cam.com/video/2GigDVPF8Oo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uv6bdKBBy6FDJ0VN
Less sound effects and more information lol this tutorial sucks for anyone brand new to this.
Its hard to be informative and entertaining at the same time. And purely informative videos can easily become stale and hard to follow, since its a huge info dump. Although its good to know that i dont explain everything; ill try to get better at that. 👍
Worst teaching ever
