You are singlehandedly revolutionizing the quality of UA-cam tutorials
Hahaha cheers thanks!
What I really appreciate about your tutorials for AE is that after watching several, you really start to pick up on the basic building blocks that recur in a lot of these techniques and see why certain combinations are so powerful and widely applicable for achieving different styles
For sure. I'm really glad you're picking up those common threads! What's funny is that I didn't really notice it in my own work until I started making tutorials
@@Texturelabs thank you for that ♥️ I would love to see a 3D Camera After Effects tutorial tho, for example how to create a (pseudo) 3D scene from a picture
@@derAtze Watch the one about the train. It's a great example of 2.5D
@@jakejancook I did already, but i would really love to see what the experience that Texturelabs provides would add to the process :) He always amazes me so much, because he really understands the technicalities behind all of his techniques but also has the eye of an designer to know what to use and how to apply it to tie it together. I am really into 2.5D atm and watched a lot of tutorials on that, i know how to technically do it, but to make it immerse and add the last 5%, I feel like @Texturelabs would be the one to pull a tutorial off. Like adding grain and fog on your visual effects composition, just in advanced 😂
@@jakejancook ua-cam.com/video/hFeJESM5OOY/v-deo.html this is an example of something I've done, and i would really love to know how far you can push that
In the beginning I thought "no way this can be easily done" and with each new step I was blown away with how beautiful these effects turned out. Thank you so much! I'll definitely included these techniques in some future work!
That's really cool, thanks for the comment Guto!
100% AGREE
Not only is this a super cool effect, but this is also without a doubt one of the best After Effects tutorials I've ever watched. Clear, concise, & charming!! Amazing!!
Your tutorials never cease to amaze. I don't do AE, but this seems like a great thing to try. More power, man.
Appreciate that. Ya definitely give AE a spin if you get the chance!
This is the best tutorial type channel in the world. No one manages to motivate me to learn and use adobe programs as much as you guys do, and the fact you have a free texture website? that's just insane, the world seriously need more people like y'all
this is great!
Quick tip: you can precompose the Adjustements layers together and set the precomp to Continuously Rasterize, then use that comp in every precomp you need to apply that effect, this way you can adjust later on the effect globaly. Thanks for the tutorials and Textures, they're great!
Very cool idea!
@@Texturelabs and it saves you a lot of time!
Been a photoshop user for years, and now recently getting into motion graphics - then I discover my favourite photoshop tutorial maker also does Affter Effects. Yayness! Will check out the others in good order
I like how clean and reusable this effect is, no need to do tons of manual adjustments to make it work.
Honestly, I don't know if its the UA-cam algorithm, but I am so very glad your video popped up. This video alone was easy to follow and well structured. I have made some progress in learning the basics of motion graphics/ graphic design on my own for the last two years through online classes. But discovering your page is like the advanced course I needed. I understand the work and time to put together these kinds of videos. I would love to support your channel by any means that I am capable of!
dude... just... dude, lol. my mind is blown, as always when watching your short tuts.
thanks a lot for your videos and especially for the in depth explanation of how those effects actually work, which is incredibly helpful for a self-taught industry professional like me. kudos
Blown away by this technique and your ability to explain it so concisely, and yet still helping us understand what each part is doing . Thanks once again!
I just sat down and watched without following and enjoyed this very much! That might speak about my geekyness, but it also speaks about how good and entertaining you are with your tutorials. Great video, great workflow, great effect.
You are absolutely an amazing human Brady! THANKYOUUUUUU
Blown away by this technique and your ability to explain it so concisely, and yet still helping us understand what each part is doing ....
I NEVER EVER COMMENT ON ANYTHING, BUT YOU SIR, ARE A LEGEND!! Please create more after effects stuff, LOVE IT!!!
OUTSTANDING Technique... Just love the workflow...Subscribed and hit the bell in the first 60 sec itself.
It's not okay that some people are this skilled at After Effects. THANK YOU
Wow! The sheer depth and breadth of your Adobe suite knowledge is staggering. I've been using After Effects for years, and this is one of the most creative AE tutorials I've ever seen. This technique looks so much better than most of the write-on effects out there. (And you started with a simple linear wipe, which is just mind-blowing!) The way you incorporated all the textures is awesome and so helpful to learn-especially that halftone trick. There really aren't enough good texturing tutorials for AE. I'd love to see more After Effects tutorials on your channel! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
Greetings all the way from Zimbabwe! Awesome work!
Great to hear from you, thanks!
Subbed within the first 2 minutes. Been working with AE for 12 years and omfg this is instantly going in as a preset. You sir, are a legend.
Never used CC Threshold, always been a fast blur with a Levels effect adjusting the Alpha channel.
Keep the AE tutorials coming! Loving your take on the software!
Cool, thanks very much! Definitely more in the works!
I love that you're starting to teach your viewers some Ae techniques along side your usual Ps tuts. It's like you're creating an army of multi-skilled powerhouse editors it's cool to witness. This also couldn't come at a better time as I just dove into learning how to animate the things I create in Photoshop using different video editing software.
I can totally follow the logic of each step, and it's such a fulfilling moment in my career of motion/graphic designer. Thanks dude, the video was really pro level : )
Awesome, one of my fave yet. Love the tangents-- in a weird way they keep me focussed, because when you drop crazy effects on us my mind starts racing thinking about other stuff I could do with it, but when you follow one of those threads it satisfies that impulse for me and brings me back to the video. Really great teaching.
Ha nice, glad to hear it. Although it's also good to hear that some of the stuff gets some other crazy ideas going for you... that's great!
Oh man! You will never stop surprising us. First with Photoshop tutorials, now in the field of After Effects! Thank you TEXTURELABS. Keep Creating.
Great tip on the roughen edges to smooth. This is why I still watch tutorials!
youre helping me think smarter on After Effects
Best graphics tutorial creator on UA-cam, no contest
This is epic. Career shifting tutorial, man. Thank you!
Ah that's really cool man, thanks!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. At first it was intimidating to think one could do this, but following the steps you really learn to use the effects in many ways. Please keep up this great content.
Really appreciate this tutorial! I just used this effect for a lyrics video and am really happy with the result. Lyric videos are a pain and a half but having a cool and easy transition between words really speeds up the workflow and lets you focus on other fun ideas
I've been teaching myself after effects over the summer and I'm currently doing it in college. I have been searching for a tutorial that teaches this exact thing and I found it just before I was gonna go to sleep. Thank God I didn't 🙏 great video and subbed!
You're the king of the Treshold effect (and his evil twin brother - the Hard Mix) Thanks for this video - good as always
I am super amazed by how simple you make AE feel and less frightening to use! Thanks for keep doing this!
So excited to try this out tonight! Thank you for sharing with us Brady!
Nice, my pleasure!!
Thank you, it's a wonderful tut full of insight and powerful skills👊
I have nothing to say but, WOW!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Genius, subscribed! I wonder if any other genius with Motion 5 could do that? 😎 Keep it up! 👍🏻
We love the AE tutorials! Keep it up, awesome work! Thank you so much!
Absolutely, thanks Petr!
impressive, i'm a motion designer and did not know this kind of feature
the smooth alpha trick is amazingggg !! nice tutorial thank you
And this is the thing we won't be able learn in class ❤️❤️👌 thanks man!
It's insane how on point, concise and helpful ALL of your tutorials are. . . especially digging these after effects ones. How on earth do you figure out the combination of Effects and settings to add to create these Animations!? Whatever magic it is, keep it up. Please!
Seriously. Just as I was lamenting how Andrew Kramer hasn't uploaded in a couple years, Texture Labs comes along with content that's as close to that level of innovation I've ever seen.
Thanks for the very kind comment... Really glad to hear they're helpful, more on the way!
You are very brilliant. I thought this one was very difficult in advanced level. But you made steps very easy to follow. Thank you a lot. You are a gem.
This channel is stunning
First time watching your content. I've used AE for a while but the way all the effects here cohesively works together with each other is stunning. I will be staying here for a while. Great job.
Edit: Actually not the first time, as I noticed I've bookmarked a ton of your content. Officially Subscribing now. Salute
your channel is sooo underrated.. do your thing man!
Appreciate that!
Just stayed up for 4 hours making this. it looks awesome, thank you so much! my client will be very happy :)
OMG I found the best and the most interesting tutorial on yt ;D
Super helpful! I do a technique similar, but with way too many layers, so I'm hoping this cuts down on the render time. As always, really good breakdowns!
that blur and immediately sharpen is a trick fan editors use all the time in fancams
Amazing tutorial, you are the Obiwan of AE!!
Best and most concise tutorials on this whole site fr, thank you for sharing !!
This tutorial is mind blowing
Wow, this is great! Thanks for the video and thanks for that awesome page of yours. Became a patreon instantly! 😊 Keep it up!
To use Roughen Edges for smooth edges... So good! I cant' get over it! :D
Such a great tutorial. That 'morphing' adjustment layer tip was excellent.
This...is... amazing... How do you even come up with combining all of those effects to create such magic?!?
Ive sead it before, and say it again, Phenomenal work dude!
Always good to hear from you though, thanks man!
MIND-BLOWING!!!!!
I loved it, specially your easy to follow instrucctions, perfect video, love that it was recommended on the front page, easy subscription
i'm becoming such a fan of your channel, never cease to amaze indeed
Appreciate that!
First time. Feels like a channel I need to stick around and learn much as possible.
I started with premiere but I quickly went to Photoshop after I had trouble learning or having enough content to even create anything.. Been about 3 months of PS and feel like I'm ready to adventure back into Premiere, and maybe into After Effects?
Did you find yourself growing and just learning all the applications? (or the major ones) I feel like a lot of the techniques are similar which makes it hard not to want to learn more!
Sub, thanks
yo man i loove your tutorials! one love
This is a very high quality tutorial
For those of you who have problems with the cc threshold alpha channel + fast box blur, you gotta have a gray background color when you first create a composition. Gray solid background won't do anything so just have a composition with with a gray background color 1:20
Thank you so much! this was driving me crazy
Finally it works!!!
Everytime I wathing you I amazed how you use effects to get different looks. Thanks man. More after effects pls
Cool, definitely gonna work on some more!
I love this channel
I've never used after effects, I've been using vegas for just some simple edits but man your tutorial wants me to check out AE rn. Great work!
FANTASTIC tutorial. Your channel is incredible.
Very interesting effect. Not a huge fan of the 1980s aesthetic, but I can see how this could be applied and adapted to other styles as well.
What a great tutorial! I've learned so many things while watching this, it's amazing!
Once again, this is amazing. Please do more AE tutorials. I do motion graphics and I always love picking up new tools and tricks.
:O every tutorial is better than the other
SO SO GOOD! Flexible and easy
One thing i noticed with this. Not sure if its an update glitch... The fill layer in the higlights adjustment layer seems to be catching some alpha channel outside of the text. Luckily it doesn't mess up the bevel effect and the solid composite - set matte deals with the issue.
thank you !
Thanks for all time and amazing things
Really nice tutorial. I appreciate how you dive right in and make it easy to follow along. More AE tuts would be greatly welcomed! Keep up the great work. Oh, and your free textures are incredible!
I love you, I love this tutorial, this is awesome
So much value here!
Thanks man!
your lecture is so clear❤ Thanks for the tutorials!
Hey! For the last grunge transition with the fractal noise I found the Block Dissolve transition did pretty much the same thing with less of the keyframe faff if you just want a easy way!
That was f-ing amazing.
Thank you.
Blown away 👏
I've seen all your videos and they're very, very helpful. Thank you always.
always a great tutorials from you man!, easy to understand and not skipping why you do certain things and what it does
Wow... just wow!!!!
This is really really cool!!
I really glad that I found your channel, love your vids awesome man!
You're the best man.
wow... that is great and easy... Thanks... Definatly going to be using that soon
Very cool, thanks Jeff!
Thank you soooomuch man. As always
