UA-cam recommendation has funny timing. This video got recommended after I watched "How I Make My Maps" by Johnny Harris. Guy who used to work to VOX and make maps.
That video was amazing! Love all of his videos. You should check this out as well - medium.com/google-earth/how-vox-video-uses-earth-studio-for-dynamic-visual-storytelling-703fc871766e
Really awesome content man loved every bit of the tutorial, also watching u create this small piece with such efforts makes me appreciate the work done by the vox team even more.
Hey Asa! I've worked with Eastory on his Timeghost contributions - he unfortunately doesn't use After Effects, but I can say that he starts with a base map and marks it up in INSANE detail. One of his map bitmaps made my fairly modern workstation kneel. A more motion design-y way to do that might be composite those details in After Effects, with keyframeable shape layers. I never asked what software he animates in to be honest, but his real trick is the insane amount of detail. Try out a design bootcamp of some sort (I loved School of Motion's, but it's pricey) and you can definitely accomplish similar results.
@@wigglybymotiondesign3368 Hi, Thank you so much for that information! I had my suspicions that he was using something else as his maps were so large and detailed that I was unsure an average computer could handle it! I have actually bought a plug in for after effects that make map animations a breeze since my previous comment, so at the moment I am learning how to do that. But thanks again because I am interested in doing similar things to what Eastory does and now I have a clearer idea on how he does it.
Man, you've just saved my whole video project. I came to this video just due to curiosity and ended up with the solution to my problem. Thank you for making this video!
i did it as per your iinstruction on zeroing the position and orientation still my image is not showing up. I selected the 3D Layer and linked it to the Null TrackPoint.
Hello Boone. I had no idea Google Earth Studio was a thing. mind blown. One question though - why would you use this instead of GEOlayer? A tool for those who don't own GEOlayers?
Cheers Boone. This was super helpful. I might have missed it but, you didn't really use the GeoLayers plugin for this, did you? Thanks again. Subscribed
I've tried to do this, but when I add a comp or image to show on the map, make it 3D, parent it to Track Point 1 and zero out the position and orientation, it stays stays hidden. Any clue how to solve this?
@@BooneLovesVideo I did. I've found out what was the case, though. I'm using a single layer .psd-file of 1920x1080 pixels. It got hidden because the size was so minuscule it just didn't show up. I needed to scale it up to some 40,000% 😄.
what about making the ancient maps like Kings and generals?? like here: ua-cam.com/video/8W0OTGQEY8E/v-deo.html I searched all youtube and couldn't find any tutorials for it
As an editor when i talk to others about something that would take me and 3-4 hours to finish and export a 30 second video it blows their mind Sometimes i spend like 30 minutes tweaking a photo that will last 10 seconds then delete it and start over with a differnt image. The amount of videos about "let me show you how to do this effect in a minute" make editing sound easy its really not
Hello, Well made video but is there a folder where everything u used in this video is in it? Because I don't have that text animation and the nazi and American flag.
Love it, but aren't you not allowed to use google earth studio for commercial purposes? I wonder if there's a resource of free maps I could use because I have no idea where to find them.
I started watching this video normally without knowing that I completed whole video not even 1sec I didn't skip bravo 👏 great presentation 👏 👍 🙌 👌 You deserve Sub, like ,You got me
Those animations are very high quality, usually hand drawn artwork. So they are a big more complicated to recreate. I'm still trying to come up with some ideas for tutorial breakdowns though.
I had to submit a request to be able to use GES. Does anyone know how long the approval process takes? Great tutorial though, i'm stoked to give this a shot!
what the fuck! this is absolutely crazy that they essentially have after effets in side a browser. i can't believe how far we've come from the basic html webpages.
Well it’s designed to work with Adobe After Effects. Not entirely sure. If fusion can work with json or jsx files. I haven’t heard of anyone doing it! :)
Hope make a video about how to make a map like kings and general ua-cam.com/video/r3ZbbDyOaOg/v-deo.html. The map seems to be 3D. Is there any method to make that type map?
Thanks for that! Awesome video and a great tutorial. Deciding on software and Adobe CC is quite pricey. Is it possible to build such Vox style maps and explainers using Apple Motion + Final Cut Pro? -Cheers
I can't use Google studio it don^t want to give me an acess to studio. I try a multiple time, for personnal or proffesional projects, it never accepted, why and how can I use that ? Thank you
@@BooneLovesVideo no never, google never accepted my demand I don't know what I'm supposed to ask for the permission. Honnestly I just want for personnal use
The real question is, where does Vox get maps, that are licensed in a way they can use it on UA-cam. They obviously don't use neither Google Earth nor Earth Studio, because they don't show a Google sign on their animations.
@@BooneLovesVideoI loved the style of the map animation from 1:06-1:24 & 5:54-5:58. I think they use mapbox studio but I don't understand how to create that type of basemap with physical terrains and change its color within the border. Thanks!
Thank's a lot! I got a problem with the tracking points in AE, is like they are drifting. The Null Objets dont follow the original tracking points that I created in GES.. It's like if there was a problem with the size of the World, or the anchor points, or something like that. I've tried out everything but nothing seems to work for me. Any suggestions? Really appreciated. The animation I'm doing is quite big in scale, since I'm connecting six cities. But I don't think this could lead to a problem. THANKS AGAIN!

Hi,
Thanks so much for this! Do you mind doing a video on how Eastory does his animated historical maps?
Thanks

Out of all the Atlas vidoes that Vox has made and he HAD to remake this one... lmao
Your tutorials are always so helpful and insightful. Thank you for all you've uploaded.
You're very welcome! Glad you like them. Thanks for the kind words.
BEAUTIFULLY DONE VIDEO 👏
Personal Notes:
Explosion Elements: 13:30
Thanks a lot bro!!! I was looking for this exact effect. Exellent tutorial, easy to follow. Can you Do more Vox style animations?
Sure thing! Planning on some in the near future. Thanks for the feedback.
When you parent an object to a track point if you press the Shift key, all position values will be 0 so you don't need to reset them all manually.
All of that for 6 seconds? anyways thank you for the tutorial.
Yeah, these animations take time.
0:45 - Creating base animation with Google Earth Studio (use Altitude Attributes to zoom in)
4:10 - Adding track points
kinda disappointed i need to wait so long to use google earth studio because i have to submit my project by friday.... why..
nevermind, my application was accept next morning lol
Ha, yeah. They're pretty fast these days.
Could you please provide the Title sequence for download, I'm having a real issue trying to make it myself!
Thank you
do you have a paid course where one can a lot more about map animation?
It's coming later this year!
i did it as per your iinstruction on zeroing the position and orientation still my image is not showing up. I selected the 3D Layer and linked it to the Null TrackPoint.
how did you make that "paris-1944" logo really need to know expecting answer as soon as possible :)
Hello Boone. I had no idea Google Earth Studio was a thing. mind blown. One question though - why would you use this instead of GEOlayer? A tool for those who don't own GEOlayers?
I am from India your video helps me to understand the map editing 👍😍👌🇮🇳🗺️
I don't like Vox but I can appreciate their graphic editing talent.
video and try that on your own DAW. Be patient. It's not so complicated.
Loved it! Hope to see more Vox content in your videos :)
You will! Thanks for watching.
How about the epci sound effects and background? you know where can I find this
How to add various effects like geopolitical - war- history - etc in after effects ( free)
whenever I tried to use VI I got CPU error. That’s why I bought soft soft. to be honest, soft soft is the best DAW I've ever use for
thank you Boone, i just started learning about Adobe after effect, specifically vox style mapping i am beginner, but i learnt a lot from this video.
Cheers Boone. This was super helpful. I might have missed it but, you didn't really use the GeoLayers plugin for this, did you? Thanks again. Subscribed
Thanks, Max! No, this was all Google Earth Studio and After Effects.
Thanks for this video, I have a request to you that kindly reply me how to open street map animat in after effects
U CANT USE GOOGLE EARTH STUDIO NOW
What do you mean?
339$ bro :)))) ur a funny also, made me laugh
i do the 3D thing but doesnt work i link it to check point but nothing i do 0 posiotion and the other and my flag is not appear any ideas thanks
I just found you today. Amazing stuff man! Definitely a subscriber now.

Stupid suggestion, but make sure your images are above the map in the timeline (layer order).
@@BooneLovesVideo I did. I've found out what was the case, though. I'm using a single layer .psd-file of 1920x1080 pixels. It got hidden because the size was so minuscule it just didn't show up. I needed to scale it up to some 40,000% 😄.
For some reason, Google is asking me to fill out an acceptabce form to use Earth Studio. Is it hard to be accepted?
No, and it usually takes a day.
Thank you!
It's just Amazing!!!
I`m watching VOX for 2 years, and their videos have one of the best quality editing.

thanks tNice tutorials really helped
what about making the ancient maps like Kings and generals??
like here:

And he been in my sa situation obviously
Great work.

Enjoyed the vid! Question: can this be done entirely within geolayers 3 (without using google earth studio)?
Google Earth Studio is not free to use right now.
They ask for my details and why I want to use them, and they will choose if to approve or not.
When I say free I’m naturally referring to you exchanging money.
Hello, Well made video but is there a folder where everything u used in this video is in it? Because I don't have that text animation and the nazi and American flag.
The flags are available on wikipedia. And I don't think I included the text animation.
Love it, but aren't you not allowed to use google earth studio for commercial purposes? I wonder if there's a resource of free maps I could use because I have no idea where to find them.
Here's how you can use it -

Have you tried using ArcGIS Pro from Esri ?
No, I can't afford it. Going to give QGIS a try one of these days

Hey there, may I know which vox episode is this? Thanks in advance
Not based on a particular episode. I plan on doing more specific examples though.
the main question is how vox overlay maps... not flag

Hi @Boone loves Video .. how to create animated historical documentaries similar to king and General channel? any idea?
