Honestly these VFX not only look but feel incredible, amazing work!

[@user-er1ht6vd1i]

The most easy to understand AE tutorials. Thank you.

[@TheSfelex]

The soothing voice, the teaching techniques, the stuff i learned, all are amazing!!

[@mr.kechari]

Wow, I'm absolutely amazed by the incredible work you're doing with visual effects on your channel! Your videos really look like they came straight out of a Hollywood film. The visual effects are incredibly realistic and fluid, and they add a fantastic dimension to each video. I'm also impressed by your talent for editing and storytelling. Your videos are always engaging and entertaining, and I can't wait to see what you'll produce next.
Additionally, I want to point out how clear and understandable your tutorial explanations are. You're really great at conveying your VFX expertise to your audience. Thanks to you, I feel much more comfortable exploring VFX techniques in my own projects. Again, congratulations on your excellent work and keep inspiring us with your creativity!

[@evansojuka1399]

[@jonasneves2798]

[@f6image]

Great tutorial. Short enough and all is there. Good job. People that make tuto like you are teacher to many of us. !

[@rickardbengtsson]

Curves is always the hero of any comp work!

[@9StudioProductions]

Hell of a job man. Absolutely amazing tutorial. Thank you for explaining everything in detail and making it make sense. Been trying to work on my compositing and making the cgi or 3D objects look natural has been my issue. Thank you again. Subscribed!!!

[@musictopics7218]

were you able to follow along with the same base footage? I can't seem to find it even though he said everything used is downloadable.

[@julianlandy916]

Amazing tutorial, clear and easy to follow. Thank you so much! Keep em coming!! 🤩

[@musictopics7218]

@pixylstudios1084 were you able to follow along with the same base footage? I can't find where to download it even though he said everything was downloadable.

[@2424rocket]

I’ve been doing after effects for quite a while, so I know how to do most of this, but… Most after effects tutorials suck! Yours is a master class on how to give a tutorial. Close to perfection. You explain things simply, succinctly, no stupid rock music playing in the background… you can actually annunciate… and elements You even offer up many of the elements. You are a breath of fresh air.

[@tubax926]

yup and he doesn't skip any steps so even if im stuck i can comfortably seek back the play and find the part where i was stuck and learn from it. That's how a tutorial should be.

[@euclynwilliams9818]

Now THIS is how you do a tutorial. Easy to follow. Great explanations. Instant subscribe.

[@femrichtv]

[@MrFoxfinance]

I like the pace of your tutorial.

[@rdxtushar8846]

muchas gracias, muy bien explicado y sencillo de realizar

[@thisguygames4221]

That was cool! Fancy giving us a tutorial on how to composite that drone? cause that looked awesome

[@ProductionCrate]

Jake is planning a drone tutorial!

[@matthewdelaney6826]

@@ProductionCrate Yes, we need some 3D tutorials for assets used in AE. Plenty already for Blender and Cinema 4D, but hardly any for AE. Keep up the great work, you guys make such user friendly tutorials.

[@user-sn9fw4iq7c]

AMAZE

[@micbab-vg2mu]

great video! - thank you

[@pixelking]

Awesome tutorial. But rather than use the time remap have you ever thought of using the freeze last frame. It automatically extends the clips for you.

[@tetheredvisuals]

Great Tutorial !

[@VKMagicShinee]

Thank you so much!For Video

[@doodlve]

Loved it

[@chosen_oNEO]

A really good one but what could take it to the next lvl is some of that robot debris scattering in the sky and then falling down

[@ProductionCrate]

Absolutely! That’s a cool idea

[@walterjohnson8192]

What are the specs of the PC you are using to edit with. I'm looking to upgrade my computer and am checking in with people who use After Effects a lot and want responsiveness when editing, without a lot of waiting.

[@liyu_cn]

omg , best ever and ever

[@leeroderick]

Curious, when you did the time remapping on the dirt layers, all of those remapped clips were slowed down, right? Instead, could you have just left the end keys in their place and extended the layers so they "hold" the last frame? That way they stay at their original speed. Or was the intention to also slow them down? Great tutorial, I hope this helps the majority of people who submit their work to your contests.

[@ravenwestr1681]

yup this caught my attention too

[@simple5912]

God damn it🎉
It was fuc...ing amazing

[@mohammedelgharb-ih2ln]

GREAT JOB

[@CFNP580]

Awesome

[@mwmalo]

Na frl tho👏🏽 Very good explanation with clear instructions. Even how face paced you explained this it was clear understandable to the point useful and all around great tutorial. Thank You for not wasting my time. 👍🏽

[@spartanvstudios]

this is brilliant. Please can you make an animation tutorial of how you done the drone and mech as thats what really sells this :). Was it blender by any chance and imported with element 3d?

[@ProductionCrate]

It was done with c4d, we are planning a tutorial and a lot of the information will be applicable to blender!

[@SynnerX]

@@ProductionCrate Yeah that'd be sweet! I saw the assets on the site and I'm like "Yeah... they don't move like that on the site..?" 🤔😂

[@pedropedro5201]

GREAT

[@GMonlinetv]

thank you very much

[@creativeplustv]

Thank`s!

[@Will-lf2zb]

I have a question, do you prefer to work in log footage or color graded footage? and which process is better?

[@ProductionCrate]

totally depends! If it's a quick video, we may shoot without log and just record rec709. If we're going for something a bit higher-end, recording log and working in ACES is a great workflow for us

[@user-vc8wm8pm5t]

Thanks for the valuable lesson! Please tell me what video card and processor the computer on which you did this? Thanks reply.

[@lloydgalero2799]

where I can get the video without the effects?

[@sammer7555]

Hello, are the free sound effects available on your site suitable for use on all programs such as TH-cam, Facebook, etc.?

[@ialovenitv]

nice

Great vid :) The new Andrew?

[@sergio_grez]

I would like to know the PC specs needed for this kind of work? Looks incredible!

[@ProductionsbyKevinB]

This was uploaded in May. Hopefully he will answer soon. I'd like to know this as well.

[@monirithneang]

nice tutorial, really interesting.

[@pwalz100]

Impressive.

[@tloumanamela9265]

nice one, how do make the guy to interact with that CGI drone?

[@titanvision.studio413]

Nice. Can you do one with Davinci Resolve? After Effects just won't stop crashing

We all know that the faster someone is talking, the faster you learn. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
