@@BenMarriott can i do this above premiere pro?

[@Slowboystruggles]

Love the way you demonstrate that it's not magic but clever thinking and tedious, repetitious, mind numbing ol work. And Billy Corgan.

[@BenMarriott]

Haha, I wish I could sit at my desk all day gently tapping the ol' magic animation button. :D

[@Elcodigodebarras]

I was looking for an effect like this for a broken heart and this is perfect.
Thank you Mr Marriot.

[@Funcraftythings]

Love this one too 😻😻. Is it possible for u to make a tutorial on your render settings? Would love to know how do u render your videos. Sometimes I face color issues with the videos. Video look's perfect on my screen but then when I upload it on behance it makes it somewhat dull.

[@BenMarriott]

Thanks so much! I'd love to get really into the nitty gritty with that stuff one day. I pretty much use the default h.264 render settings from Adobe Media Encoder, the defaul ProRes if a client needs something less compressed. Lots of video platforms aren't kind in compression. IG hates noise and grain, so I just roll the dice most of the time.

[@Funcraftythings]

@@BenMarriott okkk. Got it. Thank you soo much 😊😊

Does this work in any animating apps/programs?

[@neutralmichaelc]

Would u be able to use the effect shatter?

[@blazingphoenix1000]

Hey, ben so in the comp when you swap out the tooth how did the other comps know to update with that asset?

[@dukeemjay1477]

can you make a tutorial on how you animate the lollipop Plz

[@BenMarriott]

I animated the lollipop with 2 rotation keyframes, 1 with the maximum easing :)

[@dave.mosquera]

"even billy corgan"

[@SomeSayApple]

Mmh, I wonder... If using a Vektor File it might be easier to slice the tooth up in illustrator 🤔 - and then he explains why he does it that way 😂

[@KirbySans]

Smashing ... Smash!?!

[@BenMarriott]

Haha, it's the only way.

[@Eyeshotify]

Great effect....just a little too fast for me.

I really dont like your intro. It blows away my ears every time, on absolutely every video. It went that far that i started avoiding them. It is soooo disturbing.
