Hey @CinecomCrew, your videos are full of useful tips, and I watch a lot of them. Sometimes I forget the specific steps for one of your tips and I find myself browsing through your videos to find it. It would be very helpful if you would add timecodes with short descriptions or titles in the description, so that people can easily find the tip that they need. Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work guys and thank you!
remember to save the project consistently every 5 minutes should be considered as ultra pro, sometimes ur too excited with the projects u forgot to save it then it crash :)
I don't know why Adobe doesn't do something about this. It's stupid and annoying. Resolve has something called live save or something idk wat it's called but it doesn't have this sort of stupid problem.
we can always add up properties in essential graphics to see and use it anywhere outside of the comps, plus it gives us ability to make instances of the composition while maintaining the original composition.
Wow, I am better than I expected. My score is ZERO. But uniike many others, I know how to actually start AE! No, seriously - I am a true AE beginner, I know only few things that I really needed - content-aware fill, camera tracking, motion tracking, rotobrush 2.0 and that's pretty much it. Very grateful for these videos and especially the AE Basic channel!
Just gotta say 1. this video is so incredibly dope and helpful 2. as if i wasn’t already the target audience for the sponsor (the nature of music content gets stuff claimed FAST) homie threw in THIS IS WHY BY PARAMORE as the subtle meta example. you won 💥💳💥💥💳💥
I LOVE YOU! is the word thanks for making my life easier with that composition tip if only I knew it was that easy, the tears of sadness and joy simultaneously, Thanks Mate
i felt like a noob at some parts in the beginning and then at the middle i knew stuff there, and as we got to pro i knew two of the items mentioned....but still learned a bunch THANKS
I wouldn't call it cheating, it's working smarter not harder! I have sometimes saved hours just using 'True comp duplicator' makes making revisions so much easier and non destructive.
Extrude would have worked wonders today for me, but I don't mind what I created anyway. Thanks I'm probably a little all over the shop. Just for starters will use this video again.
Funnily enough, I didn't know most of the noob tips, but knew most of the pro and okey ones! wow. I guess I should have spent more time in the noob learning process!
Im a noob. I’ve been using premiere pro for 9 years and one day I wanted a moon in my clip. People are dancing at night and I want to add a big moon so now here I am watching multiple videos. This one’s good
Wow… in just 11 days since i watched this for the first time I actually learned so much. I’m still a noob but now I can actually understand a bunch of what he’s saying. I can’t do it but I can understand now😂 I’ve been on after effects everyday some days for 4-5 hours at a time! In 11 days I learned motion tracking, some ripple effect I used for the moons reflection off the river, I learned masking and I learned how to transform masking with key frames while simultaneously motion tracking. I learned where the button for blending is and I learned how to use Ultra Key… I think it’s called when using a green screen to overly birds in my footage. Im moving pretty fast in my study and one thing I noticed is that a bunch of videos that I first watched are starting to make more sense!
After Effects is a whole universe, I will never consider myself as a pro till have 10% of Andrew Kramer's skills. So basically noob for a life :) Good tips in the video.
@@lazom8214 Unfortunately, you don't know anything. ONLY you don't pray for the 43,000 people who died here. I hope that when the day comes, there will be no tears for you.
Been using AE for 10 years now. I think the only stuff I don't touch is scripts for my profession but on personal projects it can be quite helpful. I wouldn't say knowing all of this makes you a pro - I would say it makes you proficient in AE.
why? because its not needed or because they dont like it if you use scripts? sorry for dumb question , but i dont wanna apply for a job and find out i cant use scripts xD
@@xxxxxShirosakixxxxx It depends on the job. I work for an agency so every Motion Artist needs to have the same equipment, plugins and software for obvious reasons. If you freelance, it's not an issue or depending where you work.
I'm actually average on that but hey : I strictly never use it, so not bad uH ? On the other hand, I'm good or very good on Fusion, Blender and Nuke so... why would I walk reverse ?😅 Does anyone come back to or simply goes to Paint when one in a Photoshop poweruser ?😙

somehow reading your comment made my brain short-circuit so that I impulsively pressed Ctrl+S on a youtube video.
i set my autosave at 1min

I can't believe if just drag the SHIFT button to parent a layer would have saved 152626 hours of job so far. Forever learning!
Glad we could help 😉
"Stop doubting yourself and start testing" is an underestimated phrase.
Love love love these "are you actually good?" episodes! A great way to constantly give yourself a pop-quiz as an artist!
The storytelling, funny edits and all the things that have been done are getting better and better, it's crazy.
we can always add up properties in essential graphics to see and use it anywhere outside of the comps, plus it gives us ability to make instances of the composition while maintaining the original composition.
This was so good you've come along way with acting and creativity around making the videos. Been learning from you forever.

4:44 that coffee mug is fire
I didn't expect this 10-minute video to be as useful as it is!
Thanks for the good tips!
I didn't know half of "noob" tips, but did know 80% of the others.
Guess it makes me an advanced or professional noob:)
the coffee mug
ahhahaha !
glad i found your chanel
That performance was a tour de force of teaching excellence and humor. BRAVO!!! Well Done!
Love this!!! Region of interest crop is a game changer ❤️
Glad we could help 😉
the track matte update was the best thing to happen to after effects in a long time. I hated using them before and now its painless.
Just gotta say
1. this video is so incredibly dope and helpful
2. as if i wasn’t already the target audience for the sponsor (the nature of music content gets stuff claimed FAST) homie threw in THIS IS WHY BY PARAMORE as the subtle meta example. you won 💥💳💥💥💳💥
This is one of the best after effects videos I've ever watched
It's really a good test. Glad to know I'm a pro because I have doubted myself as an after effect user with about 14 + years of usage experience
I LOVE YOU! is the word thanks for making my life easier with that composition tip if only I knew it was that easy, the tears of sadness and joy simultaneously, Thanks Mate
not only that, the parenting that allows you to copy all the properties to the child that was yumm!
3:00 I love how he spammed a bunch of songs, but that’s awesome XD they were good pics
That last tip made me spit my coffee all over my monitor. Jordy, I will be invoicing you for a new one. Thanks!
😂
i felt like a noob at some parts in the beginning and then at the middle i knew stuff there, and as we got to pro i knew two of the items mentioned....but still learned a bunch THANKS
Except a tip in the noob section "adding points in mask father" knew all of them lol
really great tips I only knew about 60 percent of these. The auto trace, dual window and refine matte tools are game changers!
I wouldn't call it cheating, it's working smarter not harder! I have sometimes saved hours just using 'True comp duplicator' makes making revisions so much easier and non destructive.
Minflow chart is a pro tip too
going back and forward in compositions is preety convinient
No way he did the “ain’t nobody got time for that” 😭😂😂
Extrude would have worked wonders today for me, but I don't mind what I created anyway. Thanks I'm probably a little all over the shop. Just for starters will use this video again.
I like the way u teach .. information is very precious and ur video style of teaching 😂is so awesome
Thank you for good tips. You are amazing guys, wish you all the best.
Funnily enough, I didn't know most of the noob tips, but knew most of the pro and okey ones! wow. I guess I should have spent more time in the noob learning process!
i love your videos, its something that musted be on tv at morning for kids before school. :)
ah man, I NEEDED the 3d Track Normalizer script last week when I spent a couple hours normalizing 12 shots for a music video. lol
I need the second test, great video.
u can also use environment layers for c4d for different environments and u can change that w material setting or whatever its called
Were well made video guys! You rock!
Love your videos, I'm going to say I made it to pro for 99% of the test haha.
thanks guys, that were great tips! 👊
Amazing I knew them all except some of the noob ones. Never used the mask feather feature but this will be a game changer! :) Thanks!
I am Pro Man, Now i can ask for 70% hike to my HR, Manager! Thank you Jordy..
Thank you for the reality check
Thanks for those great tips
I knew some of them on each of the different levels But my best tip is the last one so glad I know this now
I didn't know all of these but maaaan the PRO section could have been so much more meta / deeper :D
My God, best video ever.
Skillshare is gonna shut down for good now.
I knew things from all the levels. but no all. the path of after effects never ends.
Blown away that you managed to license a Sigur Ros track! Sweet!
Such beautiful music and it totally fitted the Faroe Islands video 😍
Man, I'm on okey level 😂

Not even 2 mins in and this guy is giving laughs with FREE GAME 😂❤
Didn't got them all, but now I do know them! Thanks :D
okay i failed at the last 2 question but hey thank you so much for telling
it sucks to go through comps because the effect is in a precomp
I'm using AE for more than a year, but I didn't know even the noob level! What a shame 😥
I didn't know this is what I was looking for to learn after effects. Hilarious!🤣
4:25 please explain how to make that track matt expansion like that .. i love it ..
Use an ink splatter overlay
I need my certificate, i didn’t skip this video class 😂
Gonna check it
Looking for a jacket in your size 🤣👏

I’m at noob level, didn’t even know any of the special tips, but that’s ok, I have a lot to learn 💙
And I don’t use after effects as much XD
I love this funny and interesting video. thank you so much for your videos guys
Thanks for sharing 🤝
amazing as always, also i can sit and watch your comic series for hours (if you make)
Didn't know 2 tips in the noobs section but knew the rest. Now I don't know if I'm a noob or a pro
Same here! LOL!
@Cinecomnet Hello scammer?! How much do you want?
I learned 2 things

Actually I struggled with first few ones than the last ones :DDDD
I think I'm quite good at premiere pro but I'm starting after effects now and It's so different. Luckily I have some experience in PP
Id like to see the same video with premiere pro :)
Very good video!
I usually spend half an hour looking for a script to do a task I could have done in 1 minute
Haha, been there 😅
I legit knew more "pro" stuff than noob
I fall under the PRO category then and yet I cuss myself as a NOOB 24/7...
Do surviving after effect's start up can be consider as expert?
Definitely!
Passed beginner level 🥰❤️
What if i'm like... mixed? i knew some from all three parts, but not all (even obvious ones😀).
