This channel features tutorials by Simon Bonner on how to use Adobe After Effects, a programme which can be used to create stunning motion graphics and visual effects.

I was recently made a leader on the AE forums at creativecow.net, so you can usually find me there. I'll also be posting new tutorials at the cow from now on.

Use After Effects to create a blowing the brains out effect, complete with blood, muzzle flash and camera shake. Use displacement mapping, the wiggler, expression controls and transfer modes to take the effect to the next level.

AE CS3: Making an animated map 2 Videos
Use Adobe After Effects CS3 to make an animated map, like the ones often seen in travel / history documentaries. We'll use shape layers, auto-orienting, paths, the stroke effect and expression control effects to make the map, so even if you're not keen on the main concept there's still lots to learn.
