Cavalry saved my butt on a recent rush project. I was able to pump out several background animations that would’ve taken forever in AE. Didn’t have to compromise my vision. Thank you cavalry team!!
@@eladbari yeah the community is still super small, especially in regard to tuts. Other than Cavalry’s own channel (which is great), I really enjoyed tuts from Heyalisa Motion, Pepko Motion, and Alex Amor
@@coopidydoopidythanks for sharing that. In this new age of "Gen-Z softwares", it's best to first understand what will serve you best. Rive seems to be t-he app for animative interactions (so probably all web related clients). So, whaddya think Cavalry offers here? Lightning fast workflow as an AE alternative? Can it overcome the lack of plugins AE has?
@@eladbari I found it most helpful for procedural abstract elements. So in my recent case, I needed a ton of different wavy stripe animations, and they were taking me forever to make one by one in AE. Cavalry’s tools are just better suited to quickly making pattern-type things quickly
Hey guys! Cavalry is amazing! I mainly use Houdini for 3D and was looking for something similar for 2D, and I think I've finally found it. I'm considering switching from After Effects. I have two requests: First, it would be great if we could directly import Illustrator files into Cavalry. Second, could you add support for MS Word equations? Animating equations is such a hassle right now-we have to convert them to shapes first and go through a whole process. It'd be awesome if you could create a dedicated tool for animating equations with some handy presets. Thanks!
Thank you for mentioning me about the one million different graphics! Cavalry is the best what happend to me during my carreer. The success of my current company is thanks to Cavalry. Love Chris, Love Ian, Love Adam! Best team ever I interacted with.
You’ve made me so curious! I've just downloaded it. I think it was a great strategy from the Cavalry team to create this video. I had already heard about Cavalry, but I didn’t realize all the value behind it. This might be a problem with your communication (spontaneous feedback, ignore if not appreciated). You absolutely need to make sure this information is reflected in your online communication!
You sold me with thinking I'm clever with generative art like the ones I see in Processing. Yep as a non-developer this is right up my street.. I'm gonna download Cavalry now.
please take notice of how everybody wants to exit adobe right now and turn this into a single and affordable buying option like procreate, your user base you'll grow so much and you will benefice so much more in the future
I've just started learning cavalry and I'm very excited about using it in digital signage. They should go to all the signage SMS products out there and build Lottie widget extensions which somehow hook into cavalry. Maybe one button export to your signage CMS via a Lottie file.
Would be good if they could have a LIVE output engine in the same way that resolume does but resolume is a live compositor. Cavalry with a control center interface could generate live graphics for broadcast/podcast situations with live input or just in time edited input. There are already tools which do this but it wouldn't be much more development effort for cavalry to compete hugely. These other tools from companies live vizrt are orders of magnitude more expensive.
I have a somewhat niche style in after effects because I love procedurally generated audio reactive visualizers, but I also like having the audio reactive features on text, and fx layers, and video... and playing back video in AE is like watching paint dry. I asked in an adobe forum once and they basically made fun of me for editing video in after effects. Sorry I dont want to switch back and fourth to premiere when all my favorite features are 3rd party AE tools smh...
They need courage like DaVinci resolve, in a decade they went toe to toe with adobe …only if they had friendly motion tool instead of node compositor….this would have turn adobe to stone and I think cavalry should give us that link for DaVinci to give competition for adobe
Sounds cool except the fact it’s yet another subscription which nobody likes. For such a new tool they’d probably get so many new users on board by offering (also) a single payment option like Affinity, Procreate or Sketch do.
Super exciting to see the Cavalry team finally getting featured!

Where do you find tutorials? There's barely video walkthroughs for this app.

same. was at my wits end with something and gave it a go in Cavalry as a last ditch attempt and had exactly what I needed within a few hours
That ghostly glitch at 25:05 scared the hell out of me
HAHAH! Just heard that, what the heck was it? Do I only have 7 days to live unless I make someone else hear that sound to pass on the curse?
@33:03 too. I'm scared - might have to play some Swagger Jagger to scare off the bad dju-dju.
omg saaaame
Hehehe...yeah..."glitch."
I just started to dive in Cavalry, its really fun and love how fast and experimental friendly it is.

That Maya to After Effects Live Link has saved me on so many Maya projects. Than you to the Calvary team for making that tool.
Wow, I downloaded and messed around for a bit... absolutely blown away by the performance. Fantastic

Joey is the Goat!
Thanks so much to all SOM team for all the efforts to share knowledge with us ♥️
Cavalry is one of the best things that happened to 2D Motion Design! It just needs a bigger community and It will get there and more tutorials!
Do you guys have plans to expose the node based back end? I think it could be very powerful for advanced users.

Thinking of it as a _very_ slick and high level GUI front end for Processing would not be a mistaken assumption.

Great video on Calvary. Just wish the video had chapter markers. Thanks for this insightful video on Calvary.
Added em! Just an oversight on our part. We always have em.
@@joeykorenman sweet!
@@joeykorenman oh and when are SoM Cavalry and Rive classes coming?!
@@thedaveko Our first intro to Rive course drops in the next 2 weeks :)
Excellent, Scenegroup/this tool need more eyes on them.
looks nice, wanna use it, no to monthly software rentals!
Can you do animated maps in Calvary that are similar to AE?
Need compositing tools for Cavalry to switch from AE
Fusion.

Mash still rocks!
Cavalry Control sounds awesome! I can't stand the AE to PREMIERE workflow using MOGRTs anymore. It feels so clunky.
I have a somewhat niche style in after effects because I love procedurally generated audio reactive visualizers, but I also like having the audio reactive features on text, and fx layers, and video... and playing back video in AE is like watching paint dry.

Cavalry should have taken on After effects..
They need courage like DaVinci resolve, in a decade they went toe to toe with adobe …only if they had friendly motion tool instead of node compositor….this would have turn adobe to stone and I think cavalry should give us that link for DaVinci to give competition for adobe
True if blackmagic design made an alternative to after effects. Adobe will turn into dust.
@@punisherjus2000 yeah a better solution is required

I like the way the app makes you use your brain
Looked up Swagger Jagger even tho Ian said not to - he was right.
10$ monthly would be a nice price in my opinion...
oh satan!
