    In this video, I break down how to create this retro, analog, vintage style animation that mimics 80s VHS effects using only digital resources. Procreate, Callipeg, and Adobe After Effects are used in this tutorial.
    This time I'm breaking down the process of this simple animation using Adobe After Effects. Don't skip the video if you want to know exactly how I created this vintage look.

    This is incredible, you are incredible, Ben. Seriously, you're probably the best animator I've seen on TH-cam and for sure you're up there as one of the most talented artists I've witnessed. Will be using this for my space scene I had in mind, perfect timing :)

    This is great, what Id like to add is maybe a random wiggle shake, like a small two frames position error or solething to every separate layer or "cell" as the position of each cell sometimes moves or shakes a bit, you can see it in old disney movies.
    Something that occurred to me while watching the tut!

    instead of using the paid plugin you can also use a bunch of AE glow instances and connect them via expressions. Set the radius of instance 2 to be 2 times the radius of isntance 1 and so on. Or for even more flexibility, considering the blooming and brightening of the image, use a simple blur on a second adjustment layer and either lower the opacity or set the blend mode to Screen, Add or even Lighten and lower the opacity.
    For the chromatic aberration of the plugin you can use a combination of blurs, transforms and channel mixers aswell.

    Looks great, but I have a couple nitpicks:
    1. The skull should be covered in shadow before it rises from the fridge. The shadows should dynamically change on the skull.
    2. I think some line boil/jitter on the skull might help sell the retro look better. Some more jitter and subtle, gradual color shifting (from damaged film) on the entire frame would also amp up the retro feel.
