Thank you Jeff! Your tutorials have been really helpful to me. Short, and straight to the point. No waste of time, and just quality teaching 10/10. Keep it up. Love your channel!
Thanks for the comment. One of the things I'm doing is updating some of my older tutorials and slowing them down, going over more current info, etc. I really appreciate you watching.
If I'd waited until the end of the video I would have saved myself a lot of headaches, but I finally figured it out on my own that the repeater layer needs to be outside of the group and beneath it for it to work effectively.
I've skipped through 3 videos but your's is the only one that EXPLAINS so that I understand why we get the effect not just if you move like this you get this effect. Thank you.
How is this done using a shape that isn't uniform, like a rectangle? attempting to animate rotation or position of the group causes seemingly erratic movement. e.g. the rectangle shape rotates from odd anchor points, and the size of the repeated circle expands.
Thanks you Jeff! wonderful tutorial. I am facing one problem. My shapes are not getting align in circle changing the rotation value. all the copies are rotating at its own place. Please help. I think it's something to do with anchor point. If I am right!
I followed all of these first steps and my star has a huge red stroke around it and when I rotate in the repeater it just rotates all 16 stars on top of each other and doesn't fan them out in a circle.
This video is incredibly clear, and direct - but damn, does it go fast for a tutorial. I use After Effects professionally, and am not unfamiliar with shape layers, and still have to continually pause and catch up. The brevity of the video is great, but counteracted by the time I waste having to rewind.
Yeah this is one of my older videos where I was more focused on keeping my tutorials within seven minutes. I've learned over the years how to balance time with mental digestion of the material. I have more recent repeater tutorials that may serve you better. I do appreciate the time you took to comment and I agree with you on this one - it's just too damn fast. I've remade several of these older videos for that reason. Let me know if you'd like a direct link to an updated one. Thanks again,
Which animation are you working on? Make sure you're doing all the steps. With shape layers, where you place animation can make a huge difference. Also, make sure you're stacking your layers the way I am in the tutorial.
@@7MinuteAETutorials ill make squares en rotated is 45 degrades and i animated the stroke but when i gonna repeat them the al will show up from the middle instead of there own ancher point
@@lootjuhlootjuh2799 When using a repeater, the only anchor point is for the shape will be on that first shape. The others are replicas of the first one. Without seeing what you're doing, it's difficult to know what you mean. Can you send me a screenshot?
In the first example I don't see the reason for using the repeater on the shape, the colored circle. The thing that's being repeated is the stars. What am I missing?
@@7MinuteAETutorials Yes, my mistake. You clearly said to move the repeater so it only affected the stars. So, the groups are essentially a way to separate the stars from the other shape.
Repeater i couldn't able make circle I have followed ur instructions if click 15 circle appear in to line rotation 360 degree I did after moving position circle will not come pls suggest me ...
@@7MinuteAETutorials ok I will try mean while when you taken shapelayer circle filled with white I choosen as per instruction then I typed 15 then I gone to rotation 360/15 then I moved position circle is not coming instead of that 15 circle appear one by one right side oh did I restart system or I should something else...I will do one thing again I will watch your video again with full of concentration...thanks for ur reply
Make sure that the rotation you are affecting is the Repeater Rotation. If you go back and check out that section, it should help. There are a lot of transform properties - layer, Group, and Repeater. The Repeater rotation has a different result than the layer rotation. It can be confusing. Let me know if this helps.
I'd be a bigger fan if these were 14 minute tutorials. My head is spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning,...
Most of my recent ones are longer for this reason. The original idea was something super quick, but i realize a lot of my earlier tutorials go too fast. I appreciate you watching.
Steve T you shouldn’t have to change the anchor point on this. Make sure you’re adjusting the rotation of the repeater transform properties and not the group or layer.
Steve T from the settings I can see it looks right. I’m not sure what the polystar, group, and layer settings looks like. Something must be off somewhere in one of those settings. There are 4 steps. Try this: 1. Make the shape and make sure it’s centered, 2. Add repeater and set repeater position to 0, 0. 3. Move the star up using the Group’s position or the polystar position, 4. Add copies and divide 360 by the number of copies on the repeater rotation. If that doesn’t work, open up all the properties and send me a screenshot
here's all my steps, I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong but it must be something insanely simple that I'm missing. ruclips.net/video/TSw1FU6Pgaw/видео.html
@@geeleeggan Okay, I see where you went wrong. At 2:08 when you move the star up, don't grab it and drag it. Use the Position setting inside the polystar OR inside the group that holds the polystar. This technique is tricky, but the star has to be moved using the shape or group Position. Try that and let me know if it works.
These are meant for mograph designers who can get around AE pretty quickly. Trying to cram this info into seven minutes sometimes requires a faster approach :)
Yes, that's what I like about it. Like Jesse said... 'Short, and straight to the point. No waste of time'. Don't bother with "create a new composition.... pick a background color...."
Rich Babiarz a lot of viewers seem to okay with the pacing. The more families you are with AE, the easier it is to keep up. I'm sorry you didn't find this tutorial helpful. A lot of my recent tutorials move at a slower pace. I appreciate you taking the time to watch .
Thanks for watching, To keep these tutorials streamlined, sometimes the content goes by quick. I've been making longer tutorials so I can leave some room for people to follow along more easily, though I do want to keep them to 7 minutes if possible.

This tutorial is by far one of the best that I’ve found, really wish it hadn’t been rushed. Lots of informative info.

That was so fast that I had to add a repeater to watch it 3 times!! :P ..Great work God Bless!! :)
agree. but still a great work
That little "ration = 360/whatever number of copies" tip you had is a LIFESAVER! I had no idea and was guessing for ages!! thank you!!!
Tom Y glad it made it easier on you! Thanks for watching my channel.
This! Only place i found online that mentioned this key aspect and the one thing that made everything work for a circular repeat.

"but wait -- there's more!" this was like an infomercial but for something really useful
thank you so much
Thanks for watching!
This is the best and clearest repeater video I’ve seen so far. Thank you!!
Over 100 Likes and not ONE thumbs down? That's almost impossible to do on RUclips. THAT is how good of a tutorial this is.
Thanks, Joe!

So glad to hear! Thanks for the comment.
Great
Very good and useful information
WOW!!! That was coooool!!!! Can you explain the reason that you use "groups" first? Thanks!
I'll do another tutorial on the Repeater. Enough people mentioned that it may have gone too fast for them. I'll break it down even more.
love it

why i cant did 1:43
when i wrote 360/16 they revolve around themselves
amaziiing !!

Make sure that the properties you're affecting are the Repeater Transform properties. Set Anchor point and Position to 0,0.
Great!!!
very nice
How can I rotate every star separately?? thank you for your awesome tutorials

Are you serious? How childish. I'll look into this. Thanks for letting me know.
What is their channel?
instruction needs a repeater way to fast
I'll do another tutorial where it goes a bit slower. Trying to get these into 7 minutes sometimes limits how deep I go into detail.
Yeah, it's a lot of info to cram into seven minutes. Some of these require quicker explanations to get through.
