A moment of silence for those who haven't found this channel yet...
Quality content, ladies and gentlemen!
Haha, thanks so much. I really appreciate at the support and encouragement. :D
@@BenMarriott can you make a video on how to do some transitions like kurzgesagt ? It would be really helpful. Pls 🥺👉🏼👈🏼
Instablaster...
I definitely expected Turbulent Displace but blur + levels is a really clever and more effective way to achieve that. Great stuff as always
'Smoke armpit'... of of those things you never knew you needed... Thank you!
if you press "alt+s" you directly generate key frame in scale, same for" alt+p", "alt+r" and so on...
great tutorial as usual, Thanks Ben!
Ooooo, that's an awesome suggestion. I'll be using that in the future for sure :D
@@BenMarriott be aware, I believe this only works on macs
Its "alt + shift + s" for scale on Windows... same for the others, need add the "shift key"
Thank you.
This was the most effective and simple way to create smoke. Huge thanks!
It's just amazing what i have learned in the past two month from you *-* i can't thank you enough for your tutorials and your other content!
Thank you so much for watching, I'm really happy I could help in a small way :)
Saw this on Instagram yesterday and was really excited for it!
Hope it lived up to the hype! Thanks so much for all the support
Your teaching skills are absolutely flawless. Perfect videos!
thank you so much :D That's so awesome of you to say
i think you've just dethroned ECA as the best Motion design channel out there. Congrats !
Ooh so flowy and organic! That levels trick was suuuper clever
Thanks so much man! Blaze it :)
ive been looking forward to this after seeing it on your insta!
Thank you! Hope it lived up to the hype
Ben Marriott it sure did! (I use what I learned from your grain and texture tutorial on every video I now make on my main channel btw so thanks so much haha)
Ben I really can't get enough of your tutorials. Excellent stuff.
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching man :)
Beautiful Tutorial 👏 hope we can see more of these type of amazing tutorials !
Thanks so much :D This is one that I'm most proud of. I've got some exciting ones coming too. Hope you enjoy them.
Love the Vegas "hack" for a stroke but you can also attain the same result by adding a "Layer Style > Stroke"
Using Vegas to put a stroke on a layer using its alpha is a really good trick. Ive never been able to find a good way of doing this. Cheers.
Well delivered. Again.
Thanks so much!
Suuuuuuper cooooool
Thank you! You're quite super cool yourself :)
I think someone was watching their device upside down or something and clicked the wrong thumb icon. Great stuff as always Ben!
Haha, Thanks mate!
To apply a stroke to shapes like this, I always prefer to use Stylize>Roughen Edges with the 'Roughen Color' option. You can change the thickness of the stroke by tweaking the 'Border' and 'Edge Sharpness' values.
This method also has an added benefit of softening/distorting the shape even more depending on the 'Scale' value of the roughen. Set the 'Scale' really low, like 10, to diffuse-granularize the edges; or set it really high, like 500, for a softer turbulence. You can set the 'Fractal Influence' parameter to 0 if you don't want any distortion at all and just keep the stroke.
Roughen Edges is one of my most-used secret-weapon effects, it's pretty powerful once you get the hang of it.
Very cool tutorial. I always love to see artists bringing recreating the old animation techniques with CG.
I’m so happy I found your RUclips account
Thank you! :D I really appreciate you watching the videos :)
not even really sure why but I enjoyed seeing you build the effect next to the finished comp, thanks for this one!
Thanks so much, I though I might lose some people at the start because it looks so crap before you add the blur and levels, haha
Awesome! Thank you Ben!!
Thank you! You're awesome for watching :D
Nicely done as always!
Thanks so much! that's so awesome of you to say :D
I wasn't completely happy with Vegas. I tried "Find Edges" and then "Linear Key Color" to achieve the same result. I got back to Vegas in the end but both technique have their own ups and downs. I thought it was worth mentioning.
Thank for this great tutorial Ben, I am always amazed by what you share with us
Your tutorials are some of the best I've found on After Effects. Short, sweet, to the point, and easy for a beginner (like me) to follow. Idk what I will use this in just yet but I'm sure I will be using it!
Thank you so much, Jakub :)
Just wanted to let you know I really enjoy your videos.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate the encouragement :D
2 words, LOVE IT!
:O Thank you! :D So glad you enjoyed it
That is the coolest bat butt I have ever seen.
Thank you so much! Amazing work, I have no idea how all these combinations come to your mind, but please don’t stop!
you are a literal gift from god.
After spending years working in all the Adobe programs nothing is quite as creative and fun as after effects.
3:56 woooooowwwww (mouth from right to left)
I'd never thought of using alpha channel and gaussian blur together!!! Brilliant!
9:42 I just learnt from other tutorials that pressing 0 is better than pressing space because it loads before playing instead of playing while loading.
I practiced this project for 4 times and I picked up something different in your example and my project. Really learnt a lot, thx!
That was one of the best smoke tutorials i found, thanks!
Exactly what I needed: A smoke loop animation. Thank you!
Man, the vegas trick is gonna change my life forever.
You can also just add "Layer Style>Stroke" and have the same result in one step... but like cobra commander likes to say, "Not knowing is the other half of the battle!"
Been craving for this ever since I saw it on Insta!
Amazing! Hope it lived up to the hype :D
Thank you for valueable tutorial
Amazing content as always! The gaussian blur trick made my day 😁 Well done!
Thanks a bunch! :)
Great job, Ben!
Thanks so much!
Oh I like this. Could be a fun lava lamp effect
Oh that's such an awesome idea, I wish'd I'd thought of that.
you saved my life. I was struggling with hand-made animation and now I can do it with good results and easily! Thank you so much!
Very Nice Tutorial.! Thanks.!
Love your tutorials, please keep doing them!!!
You're awesome Ben! Thank you so much for share your great work
You're awesome for commenting. Thanks so much
Hi Ben, this is so clever! Thank you for showing us!
Thanks so much! So glad you found it useful
This.Is.Beautiful!!
Great!
Thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed it
Loving your tuts, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
UR A GENIUS BABE!
If you want to go through the pain of keeping them all in one shape layer, you can use a merge paths with a path offset that expands the shape and then another with the exact opposite to contract it back. If you get it set up correctly, it'll blob it together and you'll still have it as vectors. Of course then you'd have to do any turbulent displacement, etc. after.
Oooooo, such an awesome suggestion. Thanks so much :D
I hope you know you were my biggest influence for this channel :)
Ben Marriott thanks man! Congrats on the success!
extremely cool Ben!
Hell yeah, I’ve been curious how to do something like this since I first saw it on your story, it’s really cute and satisfying ^o^
Thanks so much :D So glad it lived up to the hype :)
Awesome stuff Ben. When they do start a motion design hall of fame, you're definitely going to be inducted! :P
That's so nice, thank you sooo much!! :)
that's really well done! 😸
Just WOOOW!!!!
This is such an amazing tip! Thank you Ben!!
Man love your quick AE lessons, great stuff!
I AM from Colombia men, thanks for share this :3
Thanks man! I really appreciate it. Glad you find it useful :)
this vegas effect trick amazed me, thank you a lot!
Thanks for the awesome smoke tut. I'm just getting into AE and your channel has been so inspiring 😁
Thanks so much! That's amazing to read. So glad you've enjoyed it.
I can't wait to try this out and avoid my school-animations by doing me-animations!
Haha "smoke armpit". I like the jargon on this channel.
Amazing!
I don’t animate but I find it fascinating to see how this stuff is made
das goot!
Thank youuu! :D
You should do more SparkAR tutorials:I need that AR knoweledge, boyyy!
Love your vids, keep it up Ben!
Awesome!
Thanks so much mate!
You're awesome Ben. Love u
This video has been a HUGE help to me! Thank you! I am also wondering how exactly did the blurred vision effect. I feel like I missed something in there, but I can't seem to figure out what you did to achieve it.
lovely lesson, thanks
Awesome¡¡
You're amazing for watching! (And commenting)
This is very good! I've used roughen edges in the past after the blur but the levels on the alpha technique seems more clean and intuitive! Also, I'm eager to try a procedural crack at this using particles or some noise. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! Roughen edges is a great alternative, you could use it to add some texture to the line as well. :)
Works great for me, thanks!
Coool tricks!! Thank you for sharing to us :DD
I want da smoke
Blaze it! :)
This is great! thank you!
Thanks so much for watching!
So cool and clean! Thank you!
Ma men! 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome tutorial! I've learnt some new tricks=) Thank you!
Great! Thanks for the tutorial!
Now this is epic
Thanks man!
Good stuff, man. Thank you!
Awesome tutorial! I’d love to see this tutorial again but with smoke that doesn’t crop off screen! I’ve been trying to find a solution for that that still feels organic.
Thanks so much! Yeah that's a whole other challenge. If I find a solution I'll be sure to post it.
How are you so generous?? What is your motivation for doing all this? Superb video and you even share a free project file. Why????
This is awesome!
Outstanding thanks for sharing tricks
That effect would be great for 2D oil animation like if you are animating something cooking in a pot or an broken ship on the ocean
subscribed! thank you for the useful tip!
this is awsome.
Thanks so much! You're awesome for commenting :)
Thanks you I love that 😍👏🏾
Hey man, just stumbled upon your youtube. For a beginner animator, this is really amazing content. Just wanted to say that and: Keep it up!
Troubleshooting:
- you have to make the plumes wide enough otherwise the holes inside the plumes will get too big and block out parts where you don't want it too --> so you make the holes smaller but you can't see it because of the gaussian blur is high (measured in pixels)
awesome tutorials
My Levels don't seem to change anything in the blurried layer
YOU'RE A FUCKING GENIUS!!!! OMG
So smart.
GOD!
:O Thank you!
nice tutorial Bro.... thanks.
so coooooool!
The one theme I've seen emerge after watching many of your videos is to put in the time and don't depend on the "pre-packaged" approach. No pain no grain amirite?
Haha, No pain No Grain is my mantra. :D You've nailed it
This is some real felix colgrave shit.
