I think Ive said this before, but why did I watch this? I'm not a video editor. The answer is that these are just so well made I want to watch them even if I don't know what's going on. You got it going on, Joe.
if you did not even try the tutorial, I dont think you should say it is well made, in any case, entertaining. hopefully this is not the case, but audience like you is what keep boosting those channels (not this one) on which some random dude just put 3 plugins quickly speeds up the '''tutorial'' so its more TikTok-friendly and post it, making actually useful videos obscure for people who actually is looking for useful tutorials.
What really impresses me is that the devs over at CDPR were able to program this transition in real-time, as well as execute a legit pixel sort IN REAL TIME. Executing a legitimate pixel sort in code takes ages for larger resolutions and i can't imagine how it was done in Cyberpunk, along with all the other post processing effects (you can see the effect at play every time you are in a digital realm of the game). It completely flew over my head that you could use displacement maps though. Well done!
I bet it was a work of art for those programmers, I know that there's a guy who does videos about image processing in games on RUclips and he tried to code pixel sorting in a video
I know this is a super helpful video but I don’t know anything about making anything like that but watching the process is fascinating ! 🎉💛 great vid Joe! Commentary is fantastic too! 🙏
I get a little confused around the 1:29 segment, right after you connect the vertical displacement to the slider I understand that's when you see a little bit of the pixel sorting begin. Ive Redon the tutorial 3 times now and when I get to this part it only drags the scene up and down without any pixel sorting. Would you maybe understand what isn't happening correctly here?
I think it's because the adjustment layer hasn't been converted into a matte im having the same problem right now. I don't know how to turn it into a matte either...
This is so fucking cool my man. Everyone on RUclips said you have to buy a plugin to do this but you showed us the easy way. Really helps individual creators like me who don't have the money to get a paid plugin at the moment. Thanks alot my friend :)
Super informative, i wonder why there's only 17,8k not 178k subscribers probably because nowadays people are too lazy and are just buying plugins to do this Great job, buddy, please keep it up! We have a lot more to learn
I understood all the steps you took and it's friggin' cool, I can replicate that! BUT, Joe, how does one study the tools of AE and intuitively know what's needed to produce an effect? How do I acquire that skill? Is literally just experimenting? I grew up with Adobe flash/animate and know it like the back of my hand, but I've been trying with AE for years and am unable to truly grasp it in the same way. I'm always bewildered how folks like Ben Marriott and you just have this well of understanding for how the effects library and various masks and blends can intermingle and interact to form a very deliberate result. It just seems like wizardry.
I'm fully following this tutorial and I can't get it to work at around a minute when you convert the layer to a matte without showing how to do that and then at the part where you make the slider move the displacement map. It either moves my whole video up and down or it just doesn't move at all. I have researched and tried many things, but seriously need help as I am not trying to pay for the effect itself.
You make editing look like art. Love seeing it in action in your vlogs and seeing it explained here. First time I've wanted to open AE since being a student :)
I've seen this exact effect while playing fhe game with fsr and sharpening on while having my game set from 100% maximum resolution to bellow 90% minimum resolution. It creates a slight effect like the one you're trying to make when it lowers the resolution to keep fps consistent. and it looks so cool
It doesn't work for me. Connecting Displacement map (vertical) and Slider does not give me those glitchy effects, I tried to precompose the adjustment layer, and edit and I also tried to change this layer to alpha matte and luma matte, It also didn't work... If somebody know what can be the issue please lemme know. (Im not sure what he did with the adjustment layer after he applied all those effects, but I think this is important information that I need to fix it)
Hey man i'm kind of stuck at 3:36 since i really don't know how to dial in and out any of that stuff for i'm only used with premiere pro's form of cutting and transitioning atm and i would really need a hand on this one if you have time to reply this my guy.
I'm having a hard time following as I'm not all that familiar with after effects editing panels so I'm not sure where to get things like the Mosaic feature and tint...
I'd like to think there is a team at CD Projekt watching this video and writing down notes on how to simplify the process they use for this. (Mainly one guy circling the displacement duplication 40 times.)
After I connect Max Vertical Displacement to Slider, all it does is move the whole composition up or down, it doesn't give me the stretched lines effect :/
Make sure the displacement map layer is set to the pre comp you made. If it is double check there is enough contrast in the map, if it's all one colour it won't displace. You'll need multiple displacements before the effect starts to look like lines too, the more individual displacement maps the stronger the line style
@@JoeHickson Still getting the same effect, it just looks like I'm changing the position of the Edit up or down. I'm doing every little thing you say to do step-by-step, copied every setting and value on your screen to the exact number, and still nothing. I think I'm too much of a noob at AE, your tutorial is brilliant but doesn't hold the viewer's hand (a good thing). One day I'll hopefully figure it out.
I decided to memorize the entire of Ocarina of Time rather than learning a second language, learning an instrument or learning how to program/do funky shit on a computer to make other funky shit funkier. I feel like I waste my youth somewhat... Joe, could you do a video with everything a beginner would need? Programs, hardware, subscriptions to what youtube channels, etc... would be very useful, cheers!
Hey Joe, great video. I've got through the 1st minute where you create an adjustment layer with: Mosaic, Find edges, tint, and Fractal Noise. Once that is completed, is this layer considered the Matte layer? I didn't see you rename, so just wanted some clarification.
Great to watch terrible to learn, am trying to do it 3 time and still can't get it Edit: after 3 times i get it, in my opinion you should show a little more while you doing pre comps so there will be more steps shown and for begginers wil lbe easier to get what's going on
Could you specify what exactly you did to make it work for you? I'm in the same boat. He skipped the step between adding all those effects to the adjustment layer and then pre-composing (presumably) it and then adding it to another composition with the footage. I get to the part where you marry the max vertical displacement parameter to the slider effect, but when I move the slider, my footage just moves fully up and down, it doesn't get the effect as he adjusts the slider parameters like shown at 1:43
@@jamesperry8451 Oh god, now I don;t remember. I was using it in one project and anyway at the end I made it somethink else other way. Am not even sure if I even have file yet to check it. That was sometink with luma I think and compositons settings ? Hard to say now ;/
man, this tutorial is good, but try to go into more detail of what you're doing, you are skipping some important steps that for someone new to AE such as me are super important
people who actually will use the tutorial, like me, wants full screen recording, u cute, but seeing ur face won't help me know exactly what I'm supposed to do sister
Great effect but the tutorial was terrible. I don't know why you keep going back to your camera, people who are watching this are more interested in seeing your timeline and your comps than your face. Besides, you don't show how you did many of those things and it's so hard to follow the steps cause we don't see the entire screen, but only two or three selected parts...

i don’t even know whether this is after effects or what but still insanely i teresting

What's most impressive isn't the cool effect, but how he managed to explain it clearly and concisely in all of 6 minutes.
I have never seen a better tutorial. So helpful, so condensed and so real, straight to the point. Immediately subscribed!
