My mind blew 5 times throughout this video. I just purchased Motion 3 and this is the first tutorial I watched to get familiarized with it. I feel like a *MOTION GOD* now dude, holy actual poop.
This is a stellar casual walk-through and I bought the plugin almost immediately before making it 5 minutes in, so great job on that. However after buying it, I realize that I would probably benefit form some training and there isn't much content on motion 3 (not an incredible amount for previous versions as well)... and as a noob-intermediate After Effects user, I know there is probably so much that is escaping me as far as planning and conceptualizing motion graphics projects, in terms of maximizing the potential of this plugin. I think it would take a long ass time but man it would be incredible if you could make do a deeper dive into this plugin. I realize this is asking QUITE A LOT, but holy shit this plugin is the fucking business.
If you add "0.00 Introduction" at the start of this list, and put this list in the description, TH-cam will automatically make the chapters! Not sure if you know 😊
This was one of the best script tutorials I've ever seen and I binge a LOT of them. You have a great tempo that's easy to keep up with, a pleasant voice and attitude, you explain things in terms anyone can understand and follow, your examples are all perfect and your entire approach is humble and accommodating to people of all levels. When you see a video like this with 545 likes and ZERO dislikes that speaks for itself. You have a new subscriber and student here. I'll be binging your channel tonight and probably all week. Thank you. I've stared at Motion 3 for months now and just kept passing it by. After this I know it's time to take the plunge. Wishing you much success!
Oh good God! Thank you so much! i bought this plug in four months ago because everybody talks about how awesome it is.. but I've found no documentation or tutorials online. This was super helpful. Much appreciated, friend!
This plugin is gold. I've been using it profesionnaly for years now (first plugin I ever bought), and MtMograph keeps on improving it for free since you acquire a lifetime license! Some of the best bang for your bucks. Also : great video. Straightforward and useful. Thanks! :)
I just SCREAMED, I had no IDEA there was a color manager in this plugin and I've been using it for 2 YEARS!! Incredible. I feel like a dunce. But THANK YOU for this excellent overview, I have honestly been looking for an overview like this for, well, 2 years haha.
I bought Motion years ago, and I've only ever used it for easing and elastic effects. I never spent time learning all these, and I'm stunned at the tools I didn't know I had (and all the time I could have saved!) Thank you for this video! I don't know if Mt Mograph is interested in feature requests, but I'll say here, I've always wished Motion could update it's easing sliders according to the graphs in AE when keyframes are selected, which would mean you could use it to tweak or make presets from existing animations, but it's still mind-blowing as is!
Timeless walkthrough for an amazing plugin. Hopefully, you'll make a timeless in-depth tutorial on it too. It's obviously gonna be lengthy but you could always release them serially with respect to time constraints. Thanks, Nick.
you said " leave a comment if you liked this " ..... common i loved it... you saved us from hours and hours of work, i found your channel today, subbed... thank you soooo much for your effort and sharing and caring.. :)
I've been crying out for this video for months, and hey presto, here it is. You also made me crack up laughing throughout it. Thanks Nick, you're a star.
I just bought Motion -3 and really appreciate you making this video to showcase all the different tools. This really makes after effects much better for motion design. And I would definitely want to see you showcase more of the resources you use. Valuable stuff my dude.
Motion needs to add this video to their site. Had motion 3 for over a year and no idea you could do half the things you showed on the video. Thank you 👏
I got onboard with Motion 3 a few months ago and absolutely LOVE it. But I was in fact waiting for a video just like this. Thank you so much Nick, and M3. I can 100% agree this is one of the most useful plugins in AE. My easing is super consistent without spending hours in the speed editor (which I can still tweak however I want!).
I've been using motion for months and had never played with all the tools. The example comps were super helpful please make more script reviews/tutorials!
Huge thanks for this, learned a few things as a long time Motion user. I only have one thing to add, which is the actual purpose of the Warp tool! While, it's true that it performs a sort of choke matte effect, this is only a component of the effect stack it applies. It's actual purpose is sort of like the echo tool, but it leaves behind a solid trail instead of a bunch of clones. Apply it to a shape moving fast across the screen and you'll get a nice warping look ;)
Just a good dude, helpin' out the masses. Thanks for helping me to decide if I want this plugin or not. When I decide to buy, I'll make sure to use your link. :)
Thanks for this video! I used a fraction of these tools and I couldnt find a tutorial that explained any of them! This was extremely helpful and shared it with a few of my coworkers! GIDDY UP!
this is an awesome walk through man.. this thing literally revolutionises the way you use after effects and the time it takes to get a great quality job done
This video is just what I needed, just bought motion 3 recently. I'll definitely be rewatching this. It would be awesome if you picked two or three features to go over at a time and did a series of these that are slightly more in depth. Either way, incredibly helpful video!
Hey Nick, thx for putting this together! It was really helpful to have this when I was pressed for time and just needed a quick explanation of the possibilities
meh...bought Motion 3 day before yesterday....saw this video today....tried the discount code....still works :-| Great plug-in and great video. Love the examples you show. You earned another subscriber! ;-)
WOOOO! Same boat as others - I've had this for a minute but didn't grasp a lot of the tools and you made it very easy to understand. Thanks for sharing!
Great overview. There's a bit of a lack of guides online for the new tools in Motion 3 and this really hit the spot. I would love a more in-depth tutorials covering in the detail the options for Cloth, Animo, and Dynamics.
This is the video I've been waiting for since M3 came out. :D I think Motion has a lot of potential, but not a lot of good documentation. So I find it daunting. This video was GREAT. I would eagerly watch videos on any or all of those tools. Thanks a bunch for this! 👍👍
Absolutely mind-boggling. Thanks for the quick look at all the tools. This is super useful. I'm going to have to watch this video about 5 times and then use all the tools myself about 100 times. There are never-ending combinations-only memorizing these will help your workflow. Personally, I'd love it if you did more in-depth tutorials on this; perhaps creating something cool from start to scratch using the "best of" tools.
This is BLOWING MY MIND, this is like 10 plugins in one!! Thank you for this in-depth run through, absolutely amazing. I didn't quite get what Calibration does. Maybe for a follow up you could show some examples of how a combination of those tools can come together to make some amazing things?
This was amazingly great. I've had M3 for a while and could never figure out half of the tools. Thank you so much for concise and clear walk-thru!!!!!!!
I had motion-3 in a while and wasn't really paying attention to each of the function. most of the time I only use the center anchor and excite. And yeah I've never seen Motion-3 themselves explain the way you did. Good job!
TBH this version is the first version I'm eager to buy. The other tools I could find elsewhere, but this iteration gives you more and its all in one place. Thanks for the discount Motion by nick
Thank you for making this! I came here from Ben Marriott’s channel, and like you, I owned Motion but didn't understand the power of all the tools. I can't wait to try out texture.
Really Cool tutorial man, big thanks for that ! But some highligh you forgot.. When you use the "trace" effect, you can go in to the comp from the effect and play with muuuuch parameters... really really nice tool, love it so much! :)
very powerful plugin ever! I have a question, anyone know how to change the default value for excite, it starts from 20:40:40, but I would like to change it to 3:40:100 for default value, so that I don't have to change it everytime. is there any settings for that?
I just realized how much money I’ve wasted on multiple plugins that don’t even work as well as this one single plugin 😑 finally a plugin that adds color functions like AI and PS
The making nulls for the puppet pins is really useful for making bones for character animation! So say you want a bendy arm, but don't want to buy rubber hose and you don't fully understand duik yet, this would come in handy for some simple stuff!
I'm watching this video for the 3rd time already :D I want Motion 3 so bad^^ If i have the money imma buy it immediately! Great video! Unfortunately I don't find any other videos about Motion 3 on TH-cam:/
This is so great!! I agree, you did better promoting M3 than the guys selling it themselves! Too bad I bought it before I saw this video:) Thank you so much for sharing, so useful!
I'll second what many have said here - been waiting for this for a while, really useful. Thanks! How about one for Springy FX? It looks really useful, but I can never quite face the 4 freakin' hours of tutorials the guy made to explain it.
"After Effects orders my layers natively - I think it does it backwards." Layer order when you copy and paste is actually dependent on what order you selected them in, top to bottom/bottom to top. If you select all your layers from the bottom layer to the top layer, copy and paste, it will paste them in reverse order. If you select all your layers top to bottom, copy and paste, it will paste them in the order they were copied in.
ever since giving this a go it's changed a lot already in my workflow. currently doing a project where I had a DUIK rigged character, who was wearing a skirt. Had to use an array of puppet pins to create a cloth deformation feel to it as the characters legs bent....but now....I can not only use Puppet Plus I can also use the Cloth functions and it makes it way easier for me to animate the skirt as though it's interacting with the character. very cool.
🚨 FALLOFF WAS EXPLAINED INCORRECTLY - CHECK THE IN DEPTH VIDEO: th-cam.com/video/Nj9xFMpuNTA/w-d-xo.html 🚨
Sorry for the confusion.
Alright, I'm convinced - you did a better job selling it than the dev themselves!
My mind blew 5 times throughout this video. I just purchased Motion 3 and this is the first tutorial I watched to get familiarized with it. I feel like a *MOTION GOD* now dude, holy actual poop.
This explainer is 1000% times better than Mt. Mograph's version... So many features I overlooked... Thanks for this!!!

While writing this, I realized I forgot "Parent". Which allows you to parent layers together in the order you select them.
This is a stellar casual walk-through and I bought the plugin almost immediately before making it 5 minutes in, so great job on that. However after buying it, I realize that I would probably benefit form some training and there isn't much content on motion 3 (not an incredible amount for previous versions as well)... and as a noob-intermediate After Effects user, I know there is probably so much that is escaping me as far as planning and conceptualizing motion graphics projects, in terms of maximizing the potential of this plugin. I think it would take a long ass time but man it would be incredible if you could make do a deeper dive into this plugin. I realize this is asking QUITE A LOT, but holy shit this plugin is the fucking business.

@@BenRaddatz thank you! I will try this
true pro... Thank you!
Love the way you narrated this :D Just super laid back and chill. Good stuff man, thanks for sharing.
I've been using AE for years without even entertaining the idea of third-party plugins. This might be the first one for me! Thanks for the vid.
great first choice 👍
You should consider FX Console from VideoCopilot. It's free and easily nr1 plug-in every AE user needs. MtMograph is nr 2
This was one of the best script tutorials I've ever seen and I binge a LOT of them. You have a great tempo that's easy to keep up with, a pleasant voice and attitude, you explain things in terms anyone can understand and follow, your examples are all perfect and your entire approach is humble and accommodating to people of all levels.

Discovering about this plug in is like having a christmas present holy cow I lost so much time without that I need it asap
Oh good God! Thank you so much! i bought this plug in four months ago because everybody talks about how awesome it is.. but I've found no documentation or tutorials online. This was super helpful. Much appreciated, friend!
This plugin is gold. I've been using it profesionnaly for years now (first plugin I ever bought), and MtMograph keeps on improving it for free since you acquire a lifetime license! Some of the best bang for your bucks.

the "break" function could have saved me hours of time! If only I had known that I had it all along!
I've used Motion for years but mostly just easing and anchor tools. I'm floored with how much I've been missing out on. Great video!
Timeless walkthrough for an amazing plugin. Hopefully, you'll make a timeless in-depth tutorial on it too. It's obviously gonna be lengthy but you could always release them serially with respect to time constraints. Thanks, Nick.
You have unlocked the unbelievable potential this tool has to offer
I've been severely underusing this plugin. Thank you for this!
Great breakdown, I've had motion 2 for years and actually stopped using it for a while and now I'm back in love with it haha
you said " leave a comment if you liked this " ..... common i loved it... you saved us from hours and hours of work, i found your channel today, subbed... thank you soooo much for your effort and sharing and caring.. :)
thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words 🙌
I've been crying out for this video for months, and hey presto, here it is. You also made me crack up laughing throughout it. Thanks Nick, you're a star.
Been putting off buying this for no good reason. Thanks for showing off how essential it is.
I just bought Motion -3 and really appreciate you making this video to showcase all the different tools. This really makes after effects much better for motion design. And I would definitely want to see you showcase more of the resources you use. Valuable stuff my dude.
Motion needs to add this video to their site. Had motion 3 for over a year and no idea you could do half the things you showed on the video. Thank you 👏
Yeah it does!! Or at least hire him to do a video series for them. He's got a better grasp of their script it seems than they do.
thank you so much for taking the time to make this. so helpful for a noob such as myself, who's just finding out about this tool. You Rock!!
I got onboard with Motion 3 a few months ago and absolutely LOVE it. But I was in fact waiting for a video just like this. Thank you so much Nick, and M3. I can 100% agree this is one of the most useful plugins in AE. My easing is super consistent without spending hours in the speed editor (which I can still tweak however I want!).
Can you share your license number with me please?! I am student and broke:(
Just grabbed Motion and this is a bookmarked lifesaver. Well done.
I've been using motion for months and had never played with all the tools. The example comps were super helpful please make more script reviews/tutorials!
Bought it after watching this video 2 hours ago. It's changed my life already!
Huge thanks for this, learned a few things as a long time Motion user. I only have one thing to add, which is the actual purpose of the Warp tool!

FINALLY I've been waiting for a rundown on these tools since launch. THANK YOU 🙇♂️
this is an awesome walk through man.. this thing literally revolutionises the way you use after effects and the time it takes to get a great quality job done
The way you turn around at the beginning was dope. I watched it 4 times.
This video is just what I needed, just bought motion 3 recently. I'll definitely be rewatching this. It would be awesome if you picked two or three features to go over at a time and did a series of these that are slightly more in depth. Either way, incredibly helpful video!
man, i loved it, omg
seriously great plugin, awesome video, i was trying to discover by myself, but i couldn't, my jaw dropped a few times
Hey Nick, thx for putting this together! It was really helpful to have this when I was pressed for time and just needed a quick explanation of the possibilities
Happy to hear that!
breh, this is a godsend, I had NO idea how to work the effectors before this. thank you SO MUCH.
This video is a blessing from god for me trying to learn after effects
meh...bought Motion 3 day before yesterday....saw this video today....tried the discount code....still works :-|
Great plug-in and great video. Love the examples you show. You earned another subscriber! ;-)
thank you!!!! Never used the tools as they are not explained anywhere on the website. This is awesome!
Animo: "I have no idea how this is working" lol
Seriously brilliant tool. So glad I bought this.
WHAT. Thank you for this video! This plugin will be an absolute game changer for me.
Hey dude. Been really enjoying your tutorials recently. really helpful stuff. Thanks
thank you 🙌
Just what we needed to make this tool AMAZING ! I use it for years but not understanding 20% of it. Thanks
Bloody hell, I've had this sat installed on my computer for a couple of months and had no idea it did all this! Can't wait to play with it!
Great video! I'd really only ever used this for quick easing... I'm blown away by how much more it can do. Thanks for sharing!
WOOOO! Same boat as others - I've had this for a minute but didn't grasp a lot of the tools and you made it very easy to understand. Thanks for sharing!
Very cool tutorial, thank you so much! Please do more of these!
That was awesome! I downloaded Motion 2 years and years ago but never truly utilized it. I see now that I have been missing out!
Great overview. There's a bit of a lack of guides online for the new tools in Motion 3 and this really hit the spot. I would love a more in-depth tutorials covering in the detail the options for Cloth, Animo, and Dynamics.
Thanks for the comment! I will definitely take a deeper dive into these in another video.
Yes, please do deeper dives!
@@motionbynick Please do. Looking forward to it. This one was still good nonetheless.
You're the best man, bought through your link. Thank you so much!
This is the video I've been waiting for since M3 came out. :D I think Motion has a lot of potential, but not a lot of good documentation. So I find it daunting. This video was GREAT. I would eagerly watch videos on any or all of those tools. Thanks a bunch for this! 👍👍

Great video. I am suddenly less intimidated by some of the motion work I see coming out of the professional world. What a valuable tool.
Thank you so much for that walkthrough. Great stuff
Thanks for this great vid. I have been using motion 3, but perhaps only couple of tools. This is such a nice overview.
the puppet pin tool is one of the best features. It let's you parent layers to specific puppet pins which is great.
I've just bought Motion-3 because of this VDO, Thank you for discount code
This is BLOWING MY MIND, this is like 10 plugins in one!! Thank you for this in-depth run through, absolutely amazing. I didn't quite get what Calibration does.
Maybe for a follow up you could show some examples of how a combination of those tools can come together to make some amazing things?
thanks ! i love this plug in and you did a great job in this overview.I'd really like tho see you going deeper in each magic of this tool:)
Best 24m 10s of my day. Excellent review.
This was amazingly great. I've had M3 for a while and could never figure out half of the tools. Thank you so much for concise and clear walk-thru!!!!!!!

Nick, what a great video. M3 is unreal.
another dope video my dude.
definitely do more content on this plugin.
Subscribed! Thanks for the great, quick overview! I just discovered Motion and it's going to save me an insane amount of time!
very good content! Looking for weeks on this!
I liked it and hope you do more about other plugins!
Great video. Smooth and simple explanations. Mote in depth vids on each would be dope.
I’m pretty new at AE and seeing this video makes me want to buy Motion 3 just so I can speed up my learning of AE!
Really Cool tutorial man, big thanks for that ! But some highligh you forgot.. When you use the "trace" effect, you can go in to the comp from the effect and play with muuuuch parameters... really really nice tool, love it so much! :)
very powerful plugin ever! I have a question, anyone know how to change the default value for excite, it starts from 20:40:40, but I would like to change it to 3:40:100 for default value, so that I don't have to change it everytime. is there any settings for that?
Awesome, thanks Nick heading to Mt. Mograph NOW
Thanks, Nick. This student loves you.
Happy to help!
Just made a purchase off this video! Thank you Nick!
I just realized how much money I’ve wasted on multiple plugins that don’t even work as well as this one single plugin 😑 finally a plugin that adds color functions like AI and PS
As you said .. one of the best plugins out there .. thank you so much
Love your energy. Wish I would have gotten it after seeing this video! Instead of before but thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Sir, for explaining all features, I own motion 4.
The making nulls for the puppet pins is really useful for making bones for character animation! So say you want a bendy arm, but don't want to buy rubber hose and you don't fully understand duik yet, this would come in handy for some simple stuff!
Thanks a lot! This video is super helpful in explaining all the functions!
I bought this plugin because of this video. Thanks.
I'm watching this video for the 3rd time already :D I want Motion 3 so bad^^ If i have the money imma buy it immediately! Great video! Unfortunately I don't find any other videos about Motion 3 on TH-cam:/
This is so great!! I agree, you did better promoting M3 than the guys selling it themselves! Too bad I bought it before I saw this video:) Thank you so much for sharing, so useful!
Love the video. I have the plugin but literally have only ever used it for easing and anchor point will will deffo dive deeper into it
Really helpful, thanks mate. Excellent.
Dude, Thanks! this helps me so much
If you're feeling generous, I would love to see videos demonstrating some cool things Motion 3 makes possible! 🙌
I'll second what many have said here - been waiting for this for a while, really useful. Thanks! How about one for Springy FX? It looks really useful, but I can never quite face the 4 freakin' hours of tutorials the guy made to explain it.
You made me purchase this :) Thanks!
Just bought it :D I already love it!
"After Effects orders my layers natively - I think it does it backwards."
Layer order when you copy and paste is actually dependent on what order you selected them in, top to bottom/bottom to top. If you select all your layers from the bottom layer to the top layer, copy and paste, it will paste them in reverse order. If you select all your layers top to bottom, copy and paste, it will paste them in the order they were copied in.
Comment section is elite. Learned one more new thing today
Great and very helpful. Thanks for your time to make this video.
Hey Nick, long time fan first time commentor. Love this tutorial, any chance you can do one for the new Motion 4?
I just bought it with the code. Thanks for the video! Cheers!
20:51 how did you pull up that spotlight for Ae effects? I've never seen that
Following up on this ^ Agreed that was cool
Have been meaning to just buy it for a while. Finally pulled the trigger, thanks for the discount code, enjoy the affiliate bonus ;-)
ever since giving this a go it's changed a lot already in my workflow. currently doing a project where I had a DUIK rigged character, who was wearing a skirt. Had to use an array of puppet pins to create a cloth deformation feel to it as the characters legs bent....but now....I can not only use Puppet Plus I can also use the Cloth functions and it makes it way easier for me to animate the skirt as though it's interacting with the character. very cool.
