seriously, thank you for all your tutorials! they are super informative and help to jump start my brain on creating sequences from completely within after effects. also, kudos on using the cell pattern and ball action, as i have never found a way to utilize them.

Thanks admin, but the problem is that i can’t find this effect in my “channel section”. The same problem with> “glow”(in stylize), “fast blur” and “fractal noise”, so i can’t finish some projects needed these effects.

It is an effect in After Effects, not a preset. It should be in the Channel section, just like in CS3. In your case, it might be called something different, and I unfortunately do not know the French term for it, but it is the 3rd effect from the bottom of the list in the Channel section.

You need to install the font just like you would any other font for your computer. It isn’t specific to After Effects, you just need to install the font.

Harry,

I just discovered your site via Andrew Kramer’s VCP.
I am truly thrilled with what I saw. (long live ‘set matte”).
Your reel is very inspiring as well.

It’s nice to find other motion designers so I can extend my horizon.
Definitely going to tell a couple of friends and I intend to visit your site for a couple of weeks,.

Thanks again,

Thanks Andrew! Sorry about the superfluous lens flares. I keep them to a minimum, usually. But, I mainly wanted to show the expression slider trick.
