[@wemeetatfajr]

the extra keyframe is a gem

[@motionbyscott]

Definitely a favourite of mine!

[@holke79]

Super cool stuff! Keep it up.

[@srinivasnahak3473]

Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial, especially the extra key frame and timeline shift by 2 frames

[@motionbyscott]

3:10 generally the waves left behind by a boat or something are called "wakes"

[@fedeparodi3464]

Great video! As an alternative to the sine expression, you can use loopOut("pingpong") with just two keyframes with a 33.3% easing. The result is the same, and I find it much more intuitive to tweak the values this way

[@motionbyscott]

For sure, there’s always different ways that’s what I love. In this instance I just wanted to show what it’s capable of with no keyframes too!

[@DawEngi]

Thanks, you are creative and your explanation is excellent. Greetings to you, an Egyptian Arab follower 🤍🔥

[@motionbyscott]

[@motionbyscott]

Thanks mate!

[@mehdiarjmandi5280]

Good

[@grbtza]

One trick to easily offset layers, especially when you have A LOT of layers, is to cut them the length you want them to be offset, then select all, keyframe assistant> sequence layers. Then, you just need to stretch the layers back to full length.

[@motionbyscott]

Great tip, you might be interested in my upcoming video 😄

[@lumisho]

For extra keyframes... Why not Animation Curves?

[@mesbahuddin1113]

Very fast for a new learner. Some points didn't showing clearly.

[@Miro0oMariam]

Hi
There's an effect that i really wanna make but i don't know how !
Could you please help me!!!

[@MouseGuardian]

When you workd with gradients and glows and all that, how do you avoid banding and such, when rendering?

[@motionbyscott]

You can add a subtle noise effect to help with this!

[@S3llies]

You can change. your project to 16bit instead of 8bit. and/or add a Noise effect (on 1%)

[@lowmoon9025]

How did you "stick" the wave shape to the sphere please?

[@motionbyscott]

You will need to parent it to the layer with the pick whip or drop-down selection!

[@amanjeena9703]

Sir have you created any Course on Motion on After Effects

[@motionbyscott]

I don’t mate! (Not at the moment)

[@HILMOluiigi]

Is it just me or is the text movint slightly into the opposite direction at 4:47 ?

[@bikermansl3]

@motion by Scott how can I make number 5? I have a project I am thinking of animating a fake sphere just like that. Can you help me? Or point me in the right direction

[@motionbyscott]

I have a tutorial on my channel for creating a faux 3D effect. This was done by manipulating shape paths. Hope that helps.

[@bikermansl3]

You are the man! Thanks I will look it up! Keep creating and keep helping us creatives too

Motion array appears to make you subscribe in order to have permission to use the plugin on an ongoing basis. I'd be ok to buy it--but not to pay $300 a year.
