[JimmyK3991]

[vivolauyinhou]

[oneAjay]

Very nice work  ...

[gocartman2015]

i dont have a elipse tool i have a square tool how do i get the elipse

[XVSProductions]

@gocartman2015 Click and hold on the square tool

[SlamtechTV]

Great tutorial... everything very well explained and very easy to follow... good job, this helped alot! :)

[SunRunnerNY]

Great Tutorial. I hadn't thought about using fractal noise in this way before. So thanks for expanding my thought process. By the way the speed that you do the tutorial shouldn't matter as people can just watch that part of the video over to get it.

Thanks again!

[HholyDiver42]

Thank you so much, you truly saved my butt and so much time, I have a video project due tomorrow, and this is exactly what I needed!

[theblack120VSA]

your the best 

[wikluv]

thnkx for sharing... :)

[izfliiboyiz1012]

how do you get the solid settings for windows

i cant use ctrl y

[XVSProductions]

@izfliiboyiz1012 Go to LAYER>LAYER SETTINGS

[lamaczdesek]

so sick ;) thanks

[minigunexpert]

i gots one problem. i had followed Everything you said in the video and did exactly everything you did and i finished and rendered it but the smoke/ fusion thing in the background wont move. its like a screen shot. what did i do wrong?

[XVSProductions]

@minigunexpert Make sure your whole render region is set and make sure you check out my Render tutorial (:

[minigunexpert]

@XVSProductions see thats the thing im not having the problem with the rendering. i think i might of messed something up when i created the affect because i grabbed the slider bar to see if it would move how i wanted it and it just doesnt move at all. do you think it might be the time frame?

[BatmanClue]

I can't find the vector blur too...I have adobe after effect cs5 version.

[XVSProductions]

@BatmanClue You must be using a pirated version or trial. They usually don't have all the main plugins :/

[BatmanClue]

@BatmanClue

Im using trial since dont have money to buy it.......

[IRaated]

I cant find vector blur?

[BangerMotion]

Great video, and you know at the start of the video. how is that effect called?

[XVSProductions]

@BangerMotion It's called the Twitch effect from VideoCoPilot's Twitch plugin (:

[BangerMotion]

@XVSProductions Thanks alot, could you be able to do a tutorial for that, because that would be great :)

[danrushy]

I really appreciate the download link because I'm no After Effects pro and it makes it a whole lot easier :) you're the only person I know who includes templates as well as the tutorial (for free anyway).

[zSJepson]

Can I make the text in photoshop > save as PNG > import into AE ??

[XVSProductions]

@zSJepson Yes you can, just make the text a little larger so you can scale down in quality (:

[JeffsterProductions]

Mate, your vids are awesome! I learn as I go, and your videos are really noob-friendly, so big ups for that! :)

[tmacfreak777]

oh and how do you export a project into a video file? im kinda a noob when it comes to ae

[XVSProductions]

@tmacfreak777 Check my channel for "AE: How To Render" tutorial (:

[lefrenglish]

thanks for this tutorial!! You wouldnt have a brother called Wilson NGUYEN over in Australia would you???!!

[XVSProductions]

@lefrenglish Thank you! And unfortunately no, we are all apart of the Nguyen Dynasty back in the day if that counts?!

[gouveiamarra]

When I put my Shine, is a pretty big red X that cuts across the imagems of q only to touch it this is pretty big X!

Q because I came with serial when I downloaded ... you help me?

I loved the video lesson!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheDeLeG3nD]

9:10 i don't see my text when i drag it next to fractal thing.. I can't see my text it's too dark and Fractal thing is too shiny...

[XVSProductions]

@TheDeLeG3nD Reduce the shine, make sure your text is above the fractal.

[cookiemonsterfanatic]

when i typed into vector blur nothing showed up!

[Favyoun]

I thought I subscribed to you already do you have two pages or is someone using your stuff?

[nejithefast]

i dont have that circle tool, where can i find it

[XVSProductions]

@nejithefast Click and hold down the "SQUARE MASKING TOOL" and it should bring you 3 more options. Select the ellipse tool

[Inexpensive5]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN! I love your tutorials! SUBBED!

[SvenOkonomi]

The first thing im making in after effects. This is a godlike tutorial, thanks!

[XVSProductions]

@SvenOkonomi Thank you! Sorry for speaking too fast!

[SvenOkonomi]

@XVSProductions oh no worries, thats why they invented the pause button. ;) Ive downloaded your project, unfortunately theres alot of protesting going on when I try to load it. I need a whole pile of plugins and fonts it seems. ;) But the effect itself still comes out fairly nice.

[sunil144115feb]

i like the way it comes with that sound effect from where i can get it

[Toxickiller100]

nice vid

[gustasirrom]

it works for me now

[lamboking1995]

I'm cant find cc vector blur too.

Does anybody knows what that means in german!

[gustasirrom]

And i have tried reinstalling it

[gustasirrom]

I can´t find CC Vector Blur : (

[kespec]

good tutorial i was doing something like this before seein video.

but it contributed alot, thanks for the tutorial

[MasterMuff1nz]

Awesome tutorial, but I only have one question. I am new to this and I made a cool intro the way you taught it here, but I don't know how to render properly. It is saying it will take 4 hours to render this 30 second clip. Think you could help me out?

[XVSProductions]

@MasterMuff1nz Check this video out watch?v=1J4YuFpkcGc

Yes, animations take a long time to render, it's normal (:

[MasterMuff1nz]

@XVSProductions Sweet thanks, Well, I use sony vegas and I heard after effects is 10 times better so I want to learn it and transition to it maybe, just couldnt believe 4 hours = 30 seconds.

[SoHolyTsunami]

amazing tutorial :D , but when i download the file to put into the composition , it just doesn't go in , it's .RAR file type , how do i open it?

[XVSProductions]

@SoHolyTsunami You need a free program called 7-ZIP or WinRAR. Sorry for the inconvenience, I will update files soon! But thanks (:

[ItalianBastards]

id love to know where you got the "shine" preset. This tutorial has helped alot thanks =]

[XVSProductions]

@ItalianBastards Hey there, I'm glad it helped you a lot and thank you! The "Shine" effect is a paid plugin from Trapcode :/

[6production9]

I was wondering, which is easier to use? AAE or SV9 for beginers? cuz' I was just going to get a keygen and download one, but have no clue which one to get? (I can only download one)

[XVSProductions]

@6production9 Sony Vegas and AE are 2 different programs, one is for compositing and animation and one is for edits only. You usually need both, importing the AE animation into Vegas to do simple edits like cutting scenes and fading, etc. I'd say Sony Vegas 9 is much easier to use than After Effects!

[6production9]

@XVSProductions Thank you very much :)

I actually ended up getting both, and your tuts are very helpful.

[OurDjSlide]

soo great man i thank you sou much ;)

[donleeful]

hi...this is max..a..i done it.thank u very much.....what is ur next step..?

[GERAEffectsTutorials]

at the end of the video you can add some turbulent displace and make an animation of it! Its just what i think what is missing but anyway, its a nice tutorial thanks!

[XVSProductions]

@DoxDesignz My text "jump around?" you mean the TWITCH effect? Google it from VideoCoPilot (:

[GoodHomeVideos]

Hey man, I appreciate these videos because i'm trying to learn about some title making skills. I've currently been working with action essentials 2 by Andrew Kramer and have become decent with it. Please keep posting your text intros because I need the help. You can check out my 2 videos about the action essentials 2 effects.

[XVSProductions]

@GoodHomeVideos Thank you for your kind words (: I'll see your channel right now!

[TheHunter1234561]

omg mann thnks soo much youve helped me out big time!!!!



[Nosensev57]

nice vid mate to bad that some ppl ( like kruglin ) dislike it its a awesome tutorail, you helped me alot, thx man!

[XVSProductions]

@Nosensev57 Thanks for the support and feedback man! I'm glad you learned something out of this quicktip (:

[02082025745]

Thank you so much! I've used it for my intro and I love it, Im subbing to you =D

[TheRyanaldo123]

when i click the ellipse tool it makes the inside fill with a colour instead of the grain..... how do i fix this

[XVSProductions]

@TheRyanaldo123 Make sure you have the Fractal layer selected so you can create a mask. If you have NO layers selected, you'll draw a SHAPE using that ellipse tool.

[ReLoadXxXxX]

WOW Just wow nice dude

[1wayproduction]

He Said Video Tuteral..Lol

[XVSProductions]

@1wayproduction (; my bad

[kruglin]

fuck me dude you talk so fucking fast. Do you not have any friends as a result? I can see them getting very pissed off at you. I have to keep pausing this damn video.

[XVSProductions]

@kruglin Funny, it was a quicktip video, other experienced people followed it just fine, all my friends that are experienced with AE said it was a great tempo. Just cause you're frustrated doesn't mean you go bashing me and my work as well as my friends. I can see you have no friends if you act like this. I did nothing to you, don't like the video, give it a thumbs down.

[Nosensev57]

@kruglin rofl dude chill out, remember its a video, you can drag the button back and you can play the vid all over and over again wtf are you getting so mean about O.o?

[XVSProductions]

@Nosensev57 Thanks for the support, tell him >:D

[XVSProductions]

@Nosensev57 The big giant red X is a watermark, it means you're using an illegal/pirated version of Shine OR you're using the trial. Register and enter the serial to take it off.

[ClearGlasProductions]

@kruglin it's a tutorial, its meant to be paused

[john20050]

if you don't have trapcode: shine. what can u use insded?

[XVSProductions]

@john20050 Duplicate the Fractal, apply CC Light Burst under "GENERATE" (:

[john20050]

@XVSProductions Thanks! :)

[00D00]

@XVSProductions I was having that same problem, thank you.

[kudjo24]

@XVSProductions well then how exactly do u go about doing that. the effect u create is neat, and is something ive always wanted to do, cept it would ideally be moving. just adjust the evolution on it or something?

[XVSProductions]

@kudjo24 I don't think you watched the tutorial. Adjust the evolution to make it look organic and if you want to move it, use the offset turbulence (:

[quirkessence]

AHAHAA, you're the coolest. (: 0:32 made my life.

[shibhoham]

Hi!! This is very nice tutorial.A big thanks to you for such a helpful tutorial.Please keep on uploading more tutorial.take care.bye!

[XVSProductions]

@shibhoham Thanks for the positive feedback! I shall continue to upload more tutorials like this (:

[98codguy]

what if u dont have vector blur can u use another effect

[XVSProductions]

@98codguy Vector Blur comes with After Effects built in...I suggest you reinstall AE using your DVDs and installing the plugins. No, only vector blur.

[LaMard1]

can you do a tutorial on spy gadgets like DropDrop.com?

[you54222]

When you take a snapshot, where is it located?

[XVSProductions]

@you54222 In After Effects, you have to render the screenshot out to wherever, when you take a screenshot on your PC, it's located in your clipboard, you need Photoshop in order to CTRL V it into a canvas

[hdghvy]

@XVSProductions Where can I download all the plug-in?

[XVSProductions]

@hdghvy AE DVD or do a youtube search, some people uploaded it for you

[SnowboardPlata]

Thank You So Much Great Video!
