Thank you for your explanations. You have a real sense of pedagogy. With you everything seems simple. It's crisp and clear, concise and effective.

[@freaky425]

amazing video,you are a great teacher, you just know exactly how to explain. my only regret is it's short. cause I believe you could make a single expression into a topic of a whole video! I will have to watch it again couple of times and apply it to keep it in brain.

Hi Jeff! Watched at least a minute before I was like, "why does this voice sound so familiar??"

[@7MinuteAETutorials]

Hey man - how are you??? It's been a while.

[@enokwons]

@@7MinuteAETutorials Doing well! always looking to up my expression game. 'EE' was the thing I didn't know!

[@shweshwa9202]

when I create the auto-resize and then I try to apply animate/position it happens something very weird. the rectangular expands and then it goes to the right size after some frames.

[@shweshwa9202]

why isn't wrapping my text properly?

[@samirdesigner3324]

thank you
