I am an avid After Effects user. I've been using it for about a year now and I've found it to be a truly amazing and innovative program. I'm getting better everyday and I thought I'd share some of the tutorials that have got me to the stage I'm at now. These tutorials are only use the default plugins that come with after effects because that's all I have. The ones I've put here aren't about teaching you, bit by bit, how to do a cool effect. They're about teaching you techniques so you can generate your own.
So here goes:
Hosted by Andrew Kramer from videocopilot.net, this is a fantastic introduction to the main components of AE.
Staying with VideoCopilot this is a great tutorial for using motion-tracking and null objects in a real-world project.
One more from Kramer. This shows you the basics of creating a 3D environment, using depth of field, and, most importantly, gives you an expression for more control of CC Particle World.
Not the most exciting tutorial but, sooner or later, this will be one of the most helpful tutorials you will ever come across.
Great tutorial which shows a neat trick with illustrator and also, more importantly, a quick lesson in how illustrator and after effects combine.
Not the snappiest title I've ever come across. But if you're looking for a tutorial that demonstrates how a simple idea can really work, this is it.
Well, I think we'll leave it at 6 for now. I hope you find these tutorials as helpful as I have. Check around these sites for more great stuff too.
I'll have another couple of great tutorials coming your way soon!
