Twitch Expression (Part 3) – Adobe After Effects Tutorial

So you want to make things twitch around but hate having to keyframe? Enjoy saving some sweet time with this expression tutorial series.

Part 6 of 6 of the Twitch Expression in Adobe After Effects. You can use this in any version of after effects so long as you can write expressions. If you follow all the steps though I’m sure you can do it.

If you’re finding this one too hard check out part 1 and go from there.

If this is too easy for you check out part 4.

Youtube won’t allow the characters in the expression so… not totally sure how to get you the expression if you need it. But if you pause and look at it you should be able to get it. Any also typing is fun right?

Thanks for watching in have a nice day.

Q&A 10/100 – Let’s Get Personal… way too personal for my taste but here’s goes nothing.

In an effort to answer everyone’s questions sometimes you get an uncomfortable one. This is one of those ones. If you’re easily offended keep watching and expand your comfort zone? I sure did and now I feel a little bit better about myself and the universe in general.

This question has nothing to do with After Effects and was sent in by @SirLanceG on twitter so ask him why he asked it if you’re so curious.

If you have questions, After Effects related or not, fire away. Send them at me on twitter to @ECAbrams with the hashtag #ECAbramsQ&A and I’ll try to get to them as soon as I can.

Q&A 5/100 How did you get into editing/How TO get into editing

First off i know this is out of order. It’s hard to answer things in order so I’m doing the ones that only require me talking at the camera first. I started the Q&A a long long time ago and since I’m a little overbooked at the moment I might as well put out some pre-recorded stock answers right?

This question comes from Twitter user @TorHenrik96 who asks: @ECAbrams #ECAbramsQ&A How did you get into editing ,etc ?

Well I’ll tell you, it wasn’t easy… and I had to kill a guy.

if you want to tweet a question at me go right ahead. I’m on the twitter @ECAbrams, just but #ECAbramsQ&A in the tweet and I’ll try to work it into a Q&A video coming up!

Thanks and you are awesome.

Spin Like a Rubix Cube – An Adobe After Effects Tutorial

Make solids spin like a rubix cube using fake 3d techniques. You can do this in almost all versions of Adobe After Effects. Certainly cs6 has the extrude function but we don’t need that here and I’m not sure we even want it just right now. So if you have cs3, cs4 or cs5 you should be fine. Any older and just replace the “shape” layers with “solid” layers. That will make sense when you’re in there.

I’ve been getting a lot of requests for this, ever since the “how to Sync Motion Typgraphy to Audio intro use this effect in it. If you want to see that go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcj6EFCwPkE or if you want to see what this is all about just watch the intro, that’s literally what we’ll be making. Sorry it took so long to get to this though. But it’s here now so enjoy!

Alternate titles include but are not limited to “You Spin Me Right Round”, “Meat Spin”, and “Rubix Cube Solved in Record time 2012”. Do you get in trouble for having titles that don’t match you content these days?

Thanks everyone who requested this tutorial, if you have any requests always ask them at me and I’ll try to get to them depending on time and demand.

If you have any questions post them in the comments or hit me up on twitter @ECAbrams.

Thanks again for watching and have a nice day.

In this case the pot of gold is some passably exported video.

Saddle up and open wide for some some learning about the Render Queue!
