Even my Motion Design professor always refers to Jake In Motion and your tutorials lol. You MAKE the scene! (also really enjoyed your Expression class an Skillshare) :)
SAME. I’ve been using beatgrid on projects for a while, and now with the addition of color-coded keys, pseudo-effects, and frame snapping, it’s become even better! 🎉
Thanks for the updaete video. I love all BattleAxe's tools, and you do such a great job teaching them. Hylean actually would have saved me a lot of time today. I had duplicate shape layers, but the matte shape layer was a merge paths/intersect. I had just linked all the paths manually before watching this.
A great use for Hylian is to duplicate a layer with layer styles (let's say an inner shadow), and change the blending options to make it transparent and add another inner shadow (i.e. as a color dodge to make a highlight) It's actually extremely useful for this, enables a way to make it changeable
Wow!! Really nice upgrades! Particularly in Void that I use a lot for my character animation! Question: Is there a way to add some effects on Void layers like slant os transform for skew or any workaround to it?
Do you mean you want the effects applied to a void layer to affect any children of that void? That would be possible if you copied the effects with property links from the void and pasted them to the layers you wanted to be affected.
you are doing amazing sir, Question - I am watching your skillshare series advanced topic, Animation principle... I see in 2nd class where you are teaching anticipating box animation where you use the value graph for ease in or out, I want to know why not you used speed graph for that? do we have more options in value graph? because the same thing we can do with the speed graph.... please explain it thanks... I am learning a lot from you. thank you
Installation instructions for all of the tools can be found on their product pages. But the KBar source of truth requires that you own KBar. That's a tool made by another third-party developer and you can get it on AE Scripts.
What about an option for Hylian to (on alt/option click) parent the animated properties but with something like "+value" so that you could adjust the new layer, but still maintain the primary animation from the original? Like adjusting scale, shifting position, etc while maintaining the original animation.
I feel like i am being really dim - is KBar a different product that is not from BattleAxe ? I have downloaded KBar SOT but cannot work out how to install it. Is KBar a paid product from AEScripts that needs to be purchased and installed first ? Thanks in advance!
Sorry, yes you've got it right. KBar is another extension (not made by Battle Axe). The source of truth is a collection of buttons made for kbar, if you already own it. Check it out on AE scripts. It's worth every penny.
Does the Anubis x KBar situation require KBar 2? Or a specific version of Ae? I have everything up to date (apart from KBar 2 which is a seperate purchase and Ae which is one or two versions behind) and I'm still not able to trigger Anubis properly 😢

Why does after effects lag so much man I watch people make all this cool stuff man soon as I get 9 to 10 layers in my laptop is wheezing for dear life 🤦🏿♂️ I'm upgrading my spec soon but even people with amazing specs say the same thing its like after effects has then insatiable appetite when it comes processing resources
It's true, and likely because it's such an old piece of software. Newer programs like Blender and UE5 have the benefit of being developed in a different time period where the development of the software was able to take advantage of modern hardware. Adobe has updated AE just enough to play along with modern hardware for years now but has never really been able to catch up. The unfortunate reality is there's no single-app competitor to AE, and until someone does compete we're likely going to just have to deal with what Adobe gives us.

Hey, that's a solid prof right there. 😆
@@JakeInMotion She is lol. Who doesn't appreciate a good JiM-Tutorial though :D
THANK YOU for the Void updates! (Specifically the void renaming, that was a big pet peeve with the old version)
You guys do so much for the motion graphics community, thank you!
You know I LOVE a good VOID update! Adam is awesome for listening to community feedback & implementing it
What??? The rythm sync tool is madness!!! Jaaaakeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
SAME. I’ve been using beatgrid on projects for a while, and now with the addition of color-coded keys, pseudo-effects, and frame snapping, it’s become even better! 🎉
Thank you Jake! I absolutely love Void, and have never created a null since installing it :) Very useful for parenting!
I clicked on this video so fast that even Usain Bolt would be jealous! Thank you Jake and Battle Axe~

Wow! Freeze transformation at last!!!!
This is amazing!!!!!Beatrid would also work great for Pr. Great work!

I've used the Voids plugin every day since you guys released it 😅
Thanks for these tools!
These are amazing 🤩
As always a great video to highlight some great tools :)
Downloaded void because of this video :)
Void is soo helpful i guess I was always looking for that
Awesome, thanks :)
Thanks again ❤
Oh wow! 😳

Adobe needs to be paying you guys
Danke!
Okay, I liked it, now I'm going to watch the video. 😁
You are my favorite.
This quality of life is revelatory
Thank you

14:20 can you post update about linking keyframs to in point or out point or both like the one in premiere when applying animation preset
Awesome
I would love to have the same scripts that you have in there on your own personal kbar! :D
im so sorry to ask this oh great Jake, but how do you install these tools in after effects?? i know such a novice question

Hello jake, how do you name a window as your own name for placeholder of your webcam video. please share it.

Lights does not affect element 3d (Void)
only affects on default solid layer
What about an option for Hylian to (on alt/option click) parent the animated properties but with something like "+value" so that you could adjust the new layer, but still maintain the primary animation from the original? Like adjusting scale, shifting position, etc while maintaining the original animation.
Does void work when i parent something in 3d, it throws an issue xpression error 😢
Love you daddy jake. Btw your audio sounds highly compressed and crackly
BRUH
How do I like a video twice?
i remember seeing a video where u showed some plugin that does 1 click paralax to the layers. can u tell the name?
There are a few, but this is one I'd recommend www.aescreens.com/tools/pearelax
Battleaxe Overlord works in AE2024?
Absolutely

Hello, ¿Do you need to have Kbar already installed to install "battle axe kbar"? I'm trying to install it but, i can't :/
Yes. KBar is a third-party extension made by another developer. Our buttons are designed to work with KBar.
Void?? Great. You have invented the null-object
You should watch the full video for Void. It does a lot more than a null object can. th-cam.com/video/L1D_R83Slh4/w-d-xo.html
Does the Anubis x KBar situation require KBar 2? Or a specific version of Ae? I have everything up to date (apart from KBar 2 which is a seperate purchase and Ae which is one or two versions behind) and I'm still not able to trigger Anubis properly 😢
I believe it does require the latest version of KBar.
@@JakeInMotion ah, rats. oh well, thanks for getting back to me anyway
I just tried void on a text layer with the gradient ramp and it just created a null, didn't put nulls on the start and end ramp locations.
Did you select the start and end controls before creating the voids?
btw, is it possible that the links to discord are invalid? that is the message I receive, that the invites are invalid... is it me?
I'll look into that ASAP.
Just updated the link. Let me know if that works!
@@JakeInMotion the link doesn't work anymore, I think it has a validity of 1 week

K BAR is free..?
No no no, sorry if that wasn't clear. KBar is a paid extension for After Effects, all of the custom Battle Axe KBar buttons are free to use with KBar.

How I was using this software without this scripts.
Did someone say Free??😊
This is awesome! Quick question: where is the replace Solids/nulls/adjustments in Comp/Project?
That's actually the first thing I talk about with the void updates in this video 😀
where can I get the 1.1.1 version? I urgently need the nulls replacement. Thank you!!! That's a fantastic tool! @@JakeInMotion
very useful tools
