Hey Simon - I love the message! Your channel is an incredible source of knowledge and so many more people could benefit from it by boosting your channel!
this is one of not so many clearly explained channels out there and I must say I'm happy to see apple motion, resolve and blender all in one. like said... they go hand in hand in the world of movie making. sometimes there is a tutorial for apple motion which I try to copy in davinci to see if I understood everything. that one epic tutorial of 7 parts ... I wish to like to see more of those... yes i am greedy... no serious .. it was a great tutorial ... which contained knowledge, humour and very well explained content. do this channel I started to try apple motion. di I get it... no not really but at least I tried. thank you for this channel .. 😊😊😊 much appreciated .
. I’ve been here since the very beginning, But I’m going to methodically go through all the content and like it.. I hope Morse will do the same ;) I want you to stay mate!
Dear Simon , as I told you a few times before : You are too good for this world . I hope you'll find a big enough audience to continue your outstanding tutorials . I have been enjoying every second of them .
Hey Simon, I learned a lot of things by watching your videos and now it has become my hobby to create small animations and use them in my videos. Thank you for that. One suggestion to increase reach, create shorts/reels of the demo videos in vertical/portrait mode.
Simon, if I could, I would hit the like button 1.000.000 times. But UA-cam doesn't let me do so. I dont understand why this video got around a 1000 views and "only" 369 likes. What do people expect? Your content rates for me at the top of the top 10% contents.
You’re the best creator in whole wide world, thanks to you I have my own business, you inspired me to learn blender and now I’m learning about adobe substance applications…the way you teach to the people is amazing art… Thank you Simon Ubsdell…
Hello Simon your apple motion videos are inspirational. I appreciate you sharing your time, talent, and tutorials. You’re a legendary visual effects artist. Unfortunately many UA-cam viewers watch lots of mind numbing videos about cats, music videos, and toxic pop culture. They don’t value learning or education.
Simon, your tutorials deliver substantial support and improved my skills in BMD Fusion since I saw your tutorial about the "Fusion Reactor". Since then I haven't missed one of your tutorials. Keep the engine running. I will do my best to support your channel. Thank you.
A few years ago i learned the basics of Motion following your tutorials. Since then i'm using Motion professionally for motion graphics and video explainers.
Simon, I just want to thank you. I am one that doesn’t really comment, however knowing that my like or comments boost your videos, I will do my part on liking them from know on. Thank you ❤
This channel is a great resource, I found it through the fusion sine tutorial. I hope you find the traction you are looking for, the channel certainly deserves it! Thank you!
Teaching myself by means of UA-cam videos, it was your Fusion tutorials that came across my feed first. Shortly after, Blender tutorials began popping up. So I downloaded it to follow along. They were followed by Motion videos. I'm beginning to see the benefits and limitations of each piece of software and have come to the conclusion that I "need" all three. Okay, maybe want, not need. I've consumed more content on UA-cam than any sane person should ever have, and without hesitation, I can easily say your content has been the easiest to understand, the most informative and the most engaging. All at no cost to me. I appreciate you. Thank you.
Simon, you have been so helpful over the years with Motion. Its allowed me to understand, use and deploy several projects. You have been my resource that I have shared with others who "want to know" Its always been my belief that knowledge shared is power squared. You just have to look at the content i create to understand my channels philosophy. Keep up the great work, a genuine fan who has been with you from the start. Dan
I really appreciate your channel. I've been a self taught videographer and editor semi professionally for a few years and have always wanted to get into motion graphics and animations for my own stuff and for more work opportunities. I always have HATED Adobe products and used Final Cut. I didn't even know Motion existed until stumbling across it, I can't even remember where. Though I learned the basics on my own, your tutorials have really given me a much wider scope to what is actually possible when you get more creative with all the seemingly simple little bits available. I'll watch many of them just to see what new little trick is there I never thought of. And it's not like there are really any other people making deep Motion tutorials I've seen. Now I recently have become a full time video editor and motion graphic artist for a small company, and without learning Motion and your catalog of content, that wouldn't have been possible. Thanks a ton.
Hi Simon.100% amateur hobbyist here. I've learned so much from your tutorials and you have been kind enough to help me personally when I've run into problems on projects way back. You make the trickiest projects look easy and give me the confidence to have a go and also learn why I'm doing what i'm doing, rather than only duplicating your work without understanding it. Thank you.
Simon I am so grateful for your tutorials; they are invaluable. I learn so much from you and have advanced to a level in graphics that I thought I would never reach. Please know that I look forward to seeing everyone of your creative masterpieces and can't wait for you to show me how you did it! Your content is more than appreciated :-)
Have to say, I've been a watcher since the beginning and I massively appreciate your content. I'm not a serious designer or editor myself - well, I do sound design - but I just have an insatiable curiosity about how things work. Believe it or not, your content made a few things click in other areas and, ultimately, allowed me to get my head around differential geometry sufficiently well to finally grasp the General Theory of Relativity beyond mere intuition. I've always recommended in those places where audio and video peeps converge. So this is a comment to help to algorithm and to express my ongoing appreciation. Thanks, Simon.
How can you not hit a like button, there is so much goodness packed in each of your videos! And the funny thing is that some people even have the guts to complain about this free knowledge! That’s beyond my comprehension, really! Not sure what job have been doing in the past, but your wisdom is on another level compared to other UA-camrs in your field. We can’t thank you enough!
Thanks you so much for your precious time and energy you given to us never seen that level of quality knowledge for fusion literally of of the best❤❤❤❤
Your channel is such a good resource, learnt so much, firstly with Apple Motion, and more recently Fusion. Thanks for all the effort you put into this channel, it is much appreciated
Simon - been with you all these years! Got into motion and found the rain on glass tutorial. I’ve gladly sent ppl your way over the years. Great stuff!
Hey Simon. I can’t speak for others but for me I find your channel a huge benefit. I especially love your Fusion and Blender tuts. I’m not a big motion user personally but I like watching them for inspiration. So for me. Keep em coming. I love them and always enjoy watching them Multiple times. Thanks so very Much.
Your work helped me a lot and I’m really grateful for that! I always watch your videos because each of them gives me a grain of experience and knowledge. I’m not very active in social networking so I don’t really have anyone to share your content with (sorry) but I got the point and will try to help you at least with my like for every video you’re going to publish. Thank you again for your work!
Hey Simon, I just wanted to know that you are an absolutely *monumental* inspiration to me when it comes to doing motion graphics in Apple Motion. For a while now, like you, I believe AE is expensive and it does not provide a fast and optimized user experience. It is mainly through your channel (and Dylan Bates') that I discovered just how much Apple Motion can do, especially for how little it costs. I have since become a big advocate for Apple Motion everywhere online, and I always try to direct people to your channel if they want to get a sense of what you can do with Motion, and learn how to use Motion. It's really unfortunately that there's a lack of resources for Apple Motion online compared to AE, but you are doing a huge favor and service to many of us Apple Motion learners with your frequent, high quality Apple Motion tutorials, and I'm incredibly grateful for your contribution to the Apple Motion community. Calling you a "legend" is simply an understatement at this point. Please keep up the great work! I look forward to more of your tutorials.
@@ПавелГолузов-я4г But the thing is exactly that it does not all come down to the quality of the end product. If that was the case, I'd bet there would be a lot more people using Apple Motion. The nuance here is that many people mistakenly think Apple Motion is just some kind of title editor, and they just go to AE by default for any kind of motion graphics work. Simon's videos show that you can get very, very far with Apple Motion and most people can save that $20 a month for AE.
Thank you so much Simon for sharing your knowledge and helping others. And thank you for mentioning the like button. I won't forget to click it from now on ;-)
Simon! Your Content is so, so valuable! Thank you so much for helping people like me who are stating in motion design! I deeply appreciate your effort.
It's been a privilege to help fund your coffee addiction Simon. Long may your vocal cords be lubricated and mind stimulated. Your understated style, soothing tone and dry wit combined with your in depth knowledge stand out in a world of shallow hype and dubious methodology. Thanks for sharing more on the "why" of what you do.
Agreed. Your channel is a great resource for learning the different applications. I routinely work through your projects because I always learn something new. So thank you very much for your time and wisdom.
Thank you for all of your hard work Simon, cheers from the U.S. of A. The motion 5 tutorials, especially the one on rain😉 is how I found you (Apple Motion: Rain on Glass Demo). Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for your excellent channel! It really helped and inspires me so much. I will keep following you and your videos are an outstanding resource for me to consult again and again when doing something on my own, particularly the fusion tutorials. Your videos based on that deep and profound knowledge opened to me a new dimension in fusion as I was only vaguely aware about the potential of the use of expressions for example. Thank you for every tutorial!
Thank you a lot for your inspired artistic work! I have been writing this several times and will write it again and again. I have learnt a lot from you and definetely will. And also your soundtracks are just masterpiece!
Hi Simon, the knowledge of Motion I have gained is mostly from you only. You are kind enough to help me through my problems. I am glad that I found your channel. Thank you for spending a lot of time for to create these complex tutorials and sharing them. Your channel has been a valuable tool for me! Thank you so much and very much appreciate it.
Simon, you're the goat. You opened my eyes to what has been possible in Apple Motion. You're an amazing teacher and resource to the VFX community, and I watch your videos almost immediately after they've been published. I wish you success and prosperity in all your efforts 🙏 P.S. can't wait for the Doppler effect in Apple Motion 😛
Subsidizing Simon's coffee bill is the only expense I actually look forward to paying each month, because I've gotten so much valuable content in return. Thank you, Simon!
You're a legend. Got me into Motion a decade ago. A few years ago when I switched to Linux, I was happy that I could still follow your Fusion and Blender content.
Ow-wow! That was so inspirational to me from what you're trying to tell us, Simon! That was a great speech! I appreciate your story, my friend! This was the best channel you've ever created! Your videos are not only helping me create what i've wanted, but also being informative, inspiring, and easy to follow. You've taught us so much about the motion graphics and visual effects. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and generosity you gave us over the year! You are the best creator we've ever had! 😁👍 😎👍
Simon, I´m following you for years now.. And the content you are creating helps many people starting and understanding the tools a bit, a bit better :) Thank you for all the work and time you are putting in ..
You are a legend Simon and your channel has been an incredible resource for my self-driven training of mograph and vfx. Thank you greatly for all the long hours you’ve put into making these. ❤
Simon, I make use of your Motion and Blender tutorials for sure. But I’m okay with other software tuts, because I may use those in the future also. 👏 I don’t feel at all tied to any software, but Blender and Motion and GIMP all have good prices right now!
Totally reasonable and glad you're continuing with the channel and the tutorials Simon - They've been super helpful for me and I've shared your channel to many peeps and I'll continue to do so
Dear Simon your channel is for many years one of my motion fav ! many of the tut are inspiring ,but not usable in my day to day work in fcp motion , i love a small bites of simple and handy tut that will add a practical knowledge like : golden and silver text and how to change the look and fill of it take a pattern an apply it to a text or a model ,transitions is always for the look... more to video editing crowd your a fountain of knowledge can shine in video+motion/blander!
Thanks Simon for sharing the knowledge that software manuals either omit or could never contain. I'm an on again off again VFX/3D hobbyist depending on if I have good enough hardware to run fusion etc. For me the "final product" for tutorials on VFX channels isn't a goal I'm trying to reach BUT what I watch for is knowing the underlying technique primatives that can for the most part be software-agnostic; or just broadly knowing what some software is capable of. Some things I've noticed about the youtube algorithm and VFX channels, Over time I've noticed most VFX channels just do not break high subscriber numbers I hypothesize because of how niche the audience is & how insular the entire industry is as a whole vs common content approaches. Or put another way how low level and close to the metal the VFX process is while requiring both higher effort to make long tut videos by the content creator and the hardware for the learner to have access to run the software. Like even a NukeFX artist barely breaks 60k subs, and I've seen several AE channels do VERY high quality content just fall off. There's outliers with high sub counts but they seem to either be established AE channels, and or always doing tut's for fads of the moment like some effect from a recent movie; and most also seem to have their channel as a complementary to other business like selling assets, courses, or their own software(hitfilm) so they can burn time on production in building up a content library for a virtuous cycle. About the only change I've seen with youtube for all this in the past few years was shorts , like how software such as blender would bubble shorts to the top real fast if I watched even a single blender video; but I don't think I've ever seen the algorithmic push as hard for any apple motion shorts, nor for resolve/fusion, or nukefx , or hitfilm shorts to popup in the same way as the blender stuff. It's weird but that could have also been due to blenders renaissance following blender v3; or my own search echo chamber /shrug.
Thank you for your considered input. You are quite right that there is a ceiling for what this sort of channel can expect to achieve. I'm certainly not expecting to break through it ... just get a little closer to it.
Hello Simon, I started with apple motion last October and quickly noticed that you have the best tutorials on UA-cam! Your Apple Motion tutorials have truly been a game-changer for me. I can't thank you enough for the effort you put into each video. Your genuine passion for teaching is evident in every step. You've not only helped me improve my skills but also inspired me to push myself further creatively. Your dedication to sharing knowledge is truly admirable, and I'm incredibly grateful to have found your channel! I really appreciate you and your content! Thank you
Your channel has been a great help to me, learning Motion is a completely different mindset to my usual software development. So keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for what you have done Simon. Your apple motion tutorials were the grounding for me to learn so much more about VFX as a hobbyist. I put out a edit I was proud of and a core part of it was only thanks to what I learned from your videos.
Hi Simon. Your channel is the best on UA-cam! Absolutely love your tutorials and they are so inspirational. It’s an amazing free resource and I have learned so much from your detailed explanations and downright draw-dropping knowledge. My mind has been blown pretty much every video I have watched. On top of all that insightful knowledge is your fantastic personality and presentation style that I adore. It really adds to the whole experience. I love how sometimes you are explaining something very matter of fact meanwhile my head has exploded with the possibilities relating from the nugget you have unearthed before my eyes! It’s unbelievable that you are prepared to give us all this amazing content for free. Happy to support the channel in any I can. Keep doing what you are doing - you’re a legend and it is very much appreciated!
Hello Simon! Everything I wanted to say has been written in previous comments. I have been following your channel for some time now and I just love your way to explain tutorials. I have to admit that I sometimes find myself just sitting and listening to your voice... not so much what you say. I am an amateur who likes to make short films about me and my family. You inspire me to want to develop my skills in my filming. You are the direct reason I bought Motion 5 and I have promised myself to learn more about Motion 5 through your tutorials. Hope you find motivation to continue for a long time. Best regards from a Swedish fan. ❤
Been a fan of your content for a couple years now. Absolutely delighted by where and why you stand on the platform and the software. Keep it up! Awesome work.
I'm just starting out with motion graphics, and you channel was suggested to me in the Apple Motion Facebook group. Really hope you'll continue. We need more tutors with the attitude like yours.
Simon, I run a woodworking channel where I give every design I make away for free. I link people to a webpage that has no ads where I spend hours doing step by step instructions, materials and tools used...I basically do it all for nothing and try to find the cheapest way to do it so that others that are starting out can jump in and get the same enjoyment I have with woodworking. I pay at least 300 a year just to keep the website running. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I understand your position. UA-cam is unbearably stingy. I constantly see people talk about how I only do things because I'm getting that great ad revenue...but it's literally so small it doesn't pay for the materials or blades used to make the projects. I like knowing I'm helping others. I'm hoping that there is a magical guy in the sky and that he's proud of me for wanting to make others happy. Anyway, thank you for showing the same passion that I try to show to others. I know what your position is. What you're doing is unheard of...it is above what most humans do: It's the act of doing for the sheer enjoyment of knowing you've enriched someone else. It's a labor of love. There is no greater human quality. In my case, I do it for my mental health. The world is so chaotic right now that doing something positive helps to round out the darkness outside of my home. God bless you, Simon. Thank you. Your work has immensely helped me. If you're getting thumb downs, ignore them. I stopped looking at my youtube subscriber / views / likes and even comments because they took me away from what I love doing (believe me, it's incredibly difficult shielding my eyes away from the right side of the screen when I open studios and when I click on videos I need to edit the data for!).
Love the channel. I started with Motion and found your tutorials at the time to be very inspiring. Then started using Resolve, Blender and now Unreal Engine (it's also essentially available for free). They all have their unique benefits. Would love to see you get into Unreal Engine as well.
Dear colleague Simon! Believe me - not a single one of your videos escapes my attention and I immediately share your lessons with all interested parties in my public pages. This is how it was and how it will be as long as your videos are publicly available.
Hello Simon, I sometimes like your videos, especially the one on Apple Motion because that's the software I use among those you use. From now on, I would like all of your videos in order to help you as much as possible because your content is really well explained and of excellent quality! (While being free, thank you again!). Thank you and good luck, see you soon for other videos! PS: If the idea of doing Apple Motion tutorials on animations like MagnatesMedia, Vox, Iman Gadzhi would be great ;)
Thanks for all the knowledge and advanced Fusion tutorials.
This is the least we will do for you. Thank you. We appreciate what you do for us. We hope you get more subscribers, and this is truly what this channel deserves.

Thank you a lot for your inspired artistic work! I have been writing this several times and will write it again and again. I have learnt a lot from you and definetely will. And also your soundtracks are just masterpiece!
You're Motion tutorials have been an incredible education and a lot of fun to do. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you very much, Ben.
Hi Simon, the knowledge of Motion I have gained is mostly from you only. You are kind enough to help me through my problems. I am glad that I found your channel. Thank you for spending a lot of time for to create these complex tutorials and sharing them. Your channel has been a valuable tool for me! Thank you so much and very much appreciate it.
Simon, you're the goat. You opened my eyes to what has been possible in Apple Motion. You're an amazing teacher and resource to the VFX community, and I watch your videos almost immediately after they've been published. I wish you success and prosperity in all your efforts 🙏
P.S. can't wait for the Doppler effect in Apple Motion 😛
Your channel is great and I always waiting for a new content. Thanks for shearing all those materials.
Subsidizing Simon's coffee bill is the only expense I actually look forward to paying each month, because I've gotten so much valuable content in return. Thank you, Simon!
You're a legend. Got me into Motion a decade ago. A few years ago when I switched to Linux, I was happy that I could still follow your Fusion and Blender content.
Please, Keep up the good work! Many thanks
Hi Simon,
Every time I need motion graphic motivation, I turn to you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and passion.
Ow-wow! That was so inspirational to me from what you're trying to tell us, Simon! That was a great speech! I appreciate your story, my friend! This was the best channel you've ever created! Your videos are not only helping me create what i've wanted, but also being informative, inspiring, and easy to follow. You've taught us so much about the motion graphics and visual effects. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and generosity you gave us over the year! You are the best creator we've ever had! 😁👍 😎👍
Simon, I´m following you for years now.. And the content you are creating helps many people starting and understanding the tools a bit, a bit better :) Thank you for all the work and time you are putting in ..
You are a legend Simon and your channel has been an incredible resource for my self-driven training of mograph and vfx. Thank you greatly for all the long hours you’ve put into making these. ❤
Simon, I make use of your Motion and Blender tutorials for sure. But I’m okay with other software tuts, because I may use those in the future also. 👏 I don’t feel at all tied to any software, but Blender and Motion and GIMP all have good prices right now!
Totally reasonable and glad you're continuing with the channel and the tutorials Simon - They've been super helpful for me and I've shared your channel to many peeps and I'll continue to do so
Thank you, Lee.
Dear Simon your channel is for many years one of my motion fav ! many of the tut are inspiring ,but not usable in my day to day work in fcp motion , i love a small bites of simple and handy tut that will add a practical knowledge like :
golden and silver text and how to change the look and fill of it
take a pattern an apply it to a text or a model ,transitions is always for the look... more to video editing crowd
your a fountain of knowledge can shine in video+motion/blander!
Thanks Simon for sharing the knowledge that software manuals either omit or could never contain.
I'm an on again off again VFX/3D hobbyist depending on if I have good enough hardware to run fusion etc.
For me the "final product" for tutorials on VFX channels isn't a goal I'm trying to reach BUT what I watch for is knowing the underlying technique primatives that can for the most part be software-agnostic; or just broadly knowing what some software is capable of.
Some things I've noticed about the youtube algorithm and VFX channels,
Over time I've noticed most VFX channels just do not break high subscriber numbers I hypothesize because of how niche the audience is & how insular the entire industry is as a whole vs common content approaches. Or put another way how low level and close to the metal the VFX process is while requiring both higher effort to make long tut videos by the content creator and the hardware for the learner to have access to run the software.
Like even a NukeFX artist barely breaks 60k subs, and I've seen several AE channels do VERY high quality content just fall off.
There's outliers with high sub counts but they seem to either be established AE channels, and or always doing tut's for fads of the moment like some effect from a recent movie; and most also seem to have their channel as a complementary to other business like selling assets, courses, or their own software(hitfilm) so they can burn time on production in building up a content library for a virtuous cycle.
About the only change I've seen with youtube for all this in the past few years was shorts , like how software such as blender would bubble shorts to the top real fast if I watched even a single blender video; but I don't think I've ever seen the algorithmic push as hard for any apple motion shorts, nor for resolve/fusion, or nukefx , or hitfilm shorts to popup in the same way as the blender stuff.
It's weird but that could have also been due to blenders renaissance following blender v3; or my own search echo chamber /shrug.
Thank you for your considered input. You are quite right that there is a ceiling for what this sort of channel can expect to achieve. I'm certainly not expecting to break through it ... just get a little closer to it.
Honors to you! I really have learned a lot of from your tutorials. Thank you very, very much!
Hello Simon, I started with apple motion last October and quickly noticed that you have the best tutorials on UA-cam! Your Apple Motion tutorials have truly been a game-changer for me. I can't thank you enough for the effort you put into each video. Your genuine passion for teaching is evident in every step. You've not only helped me improve my skills but also inspired me to push myself further creatively. Your dedication to sharing knowledge is truly admirable, and I'm incredibly grateful to have found your channel! I really appreciate you and your content! Thank you
Thank you very much!
You have been of great help and inspiration for me for many years, Simon, thanks again and keep up the excellent tutorials and demos! Paul
Your instruction is and always has been some of the best available on the internet. Thank you for the help you have always given us!
Your channel has been a great help to me, learning Motion is a completely different mindset to my usual software development. So keep up the good work!
Thanks Simon - Really appreciate your channel..Love the demos...
Thanks so much for what you have done Simon. Your apple motion tutorials were the grounding for me to learn so much more about VFX as a hobbyist. I put out a edit I was proud of and a core part of it was only thanks to what I learned from your videos.
Thank you Simon.
Simon, your channel has been an inspiration for me for years. Keep up the amazing work & greetings from Ireland
Thank you!
Hi Simon. Your channel is the best on UA-cam! Absolutely love your tutorials and they are so inspirational. It’s an amazing free resource and I have learned so much from your detailed explanations and downright draw-dropping knowledge. My mind has been blown pretty much every video I have watched. On top of all that insightful knowledge is your fantastic personality and presentation style that I adore. It really adds to the whole experience. I love how sometimes you are explaining something very matter of fact meanwhile my head has exploded with the possibilities relating from the nugget you have unearthed before my eyes! It’s unbelievable that you are prepared to give us all this amazing content for free. Happy to support the channel in any I can. Keep doing what you are doing - you’re a legend and it is very much appreciated!
Wow. Thank you very much for that extremely kind comment!
Hello Simon!
Everything I wanted to say has been written in previous comments.
I have been following your channel for some time now and I just love your way to explain tutorials.
I have to admit that I sometimes find myself just sitting and listening to your voice... not so much what you say.
I am an amateur who likes to make short films about me and my family. You inspire me to want to develop my skills in my filming.
You are the direct reason I bought Motion 5 and I have promised myself to learn more about Motion 5 through your tutorials.
Hope you find motivation to continue for a long time.
Best regards from a Swedish fan. ❤
Thank you so much for your comment. It makes me very happy. Best, S.
Been a fan of your content for a couple years now. Absolutely delighted by where and why you stand on the platform and the software. Keep it up! Awesome work.
Here your like, Simon :) Thanks you so much!!!
I'm just starting out with motion graphics, and you channel was suggested to me in the Apple Motion Facebook group. Really hope you'll continue. We need more tutors with the attitude like yours.
Thank you.
Thank you!!!!
Amazingly Simon, I never knew the significance of the like button to creators. 😮
I don't know why I feel sad about this.... Please guys like, sucbscribe and don't skip the ads
😊👍🙏
Top Update --- I've followed your stuff for years!
Thanks
Apple should know and remember your commitment to Apple Motion.
Simon, I run a woodworking channel where I give every design I make away for free. I link people to a webpage that has no ads where I spend hours doing step by step instructions, materials and tools used...I basically do it all for nothing and try to find the cheapest way to do it so that others that are starting out can jump in and get the same enjoyment I have with woodworking. I pay at least 300 a year just to keep the website running.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I understand your position. UA-cam is unbearably stingy. I constantly see people talk about how I only do things because I'm getting that great ad revenue...but it's literally so small it doesn't pay for the materials or blades used to make the projects. I like knowing I'm helping others. I'm hoping that there is a magical guy in the sky and that he's proud of me for wanting to make others happy.
Anyway, thank you for showing the same passion that I try to show to others. I know what your position is. What you're doing is unheard of...it is above what most humans do: It's the act of doing for the sheer enjoyment of knowing you've enriched someone else. It's a labor of love. There is no greater human quality. In my case, I do it for my mental health. The world is so chaotic right now that doing something positive helps to round out the darkness outside of my home.
God bless you, Simon. Thank you. Your work has immensely helped me. If you're getting thumb downs, ignore them. I stopped looking at my youtube subscriber / views / likes and even comments because they took me away from what I love doing (believe me, it's incredibly difficult shielding my eyes away from the right side of the screen when I open studios and when I click on videos I need to edit the data for!).
Beautiful post, thank you! Keep paying it forward. Ultimately it's the best we can do.
🔝 content. Thanks 👍. 😎🇺🇦
I used your water droplet tutorial just recent to enchance an animation where it would have been nightmare fuel to have added any other way 🙏
Great to hear!
Love the channel. I started with Motion and found your tutorials at the time to be very inspiring. Then started using Resolve, Blender and now Unreal Engine (it's also essentially available for free). They all have their unique benefits. Would love to see you get into Unreal Engine as well.
Thank you. And yes I keep meaning to dive into Unreal properly ... Maybe when one day when I have a little more time!
Dear colleague Simon! Believe me - not a single one of your videos escapes my attention and I immediately share your lessons with all interested parties in my public pages. This is how it was and how it will be as long as your videos are publicly available.
Thank you very much!!!
@@SimonUbsdell Thank you for your dedication and talent. You inspire me every time.
Hello Simon,
I sometimes like your videos, especially the one on Apple Motion because that's the software I use among those you use. From now on, I would like all of your videos in order to help you as much as possible because your content is really well explained and of excellent quality! (While being free, thank you again!).
Thank you and good luck, see you soon for other videos!
PS: If the idea of doing Apple Motion tutorials on animations like MagnatesMedia, Vox, Iman Gadzhi would be great ;)
Thank You Simon ♥
I’ll second that!
Good work, sir - thank you! :)
it is one of the most valuable channel on YT!
Thanks for your videos. Please make videos how Can you generaré CGI in blender and later you can intégrate it on Davinci resolve. Thanks again
You are amazing!
