[TheMightyNim]

Is there a way of using this for a transition???

[HypnosisDesigns]

Hey can you tell me if theres a way to make it so that it does the shockwave as like a transition to reveal text or something like that?

[JamsFX]

0:07 "just a quick tips video" video length: 17:48 xD

[TronicFX]

cool tut ;)

[32isaias]

You just noticed that about quicktime?!?!?? it happens to me too, i thinks it's the player, because if you open it with windows media player the gamma problem is gone, even if it's a quicktime file.

[TehBuda]

this is the kind of tut that we've been needing! new effect, more creativity, harder to achieve. Youtube tuts kind of plateaued a few months ago... Don's just raising the bar.

[ChizNL]

How can you put an image underneath the blast?

Please let me know, I don't want to mask out around the logo for every frame

PLEASE HELP ME!

[MrCookieman95]

[Merlsp]

Great don.

[Merlsp]

Great don.

[hamsta7cam]

Just like on the livestream!

[Alxbeginner]

And the cool thing is that the start of the tut was kinda the same as the shockwave tut?

[IDigitalUniverse]

@Alxbeginner exactly the same :D

[jahusa01]

Just saw nearly the same on VideoCopilot ;>

[IDigitalUniverse]

@jahusa01 the fractal noise and wave animation sections are both effects that i originaly discovered by watching different tutorials on VC. I combined the 2 of them and added my own extras and came up with a different effect. I encourage everyone to do the same, mix up what you already know to create new effects.

[jahusa01]

@IDigitalUniverse It was no offend ;)

I just wanted to made a tutorial on this too xD

But u r the king ;) i love ur tuts! :P

[ikillu1452]
