Today we are talking about how to make a killer After Effects intro for your videos!
Building a new intro is one of my ABSOLUTE favourite things about kicking off a new year. I’ve received a lot of comments on my new intros throughout the years and also a lot of questions from you on how to build a good intro. So today I thought it was about time I cook up a little video about it. In this After Effects tutorial I show you how to build a spicy UA-cam intro for yourself using Adobe After Effects. I walk you through an example from start to finish so that you can follow along and then take these techniques and maybe apply some of them to footage that is relevant to you and your channel. I also talk about what ingredients I think make for a good UA-cam video intro and give you some things to think about and consider when you are making yours. Let me know what you think of this video in the comments below and if there are any other topics you may want to see me cover. I am pumped to see you build some banger intros!

Chefs Kiss* - Please, enjoy.

They should make you an Avenger with those knife skillzzz! 🔪🗡✌️

Chef Pete!!!!
Hi Peter , even FCPX still crashes sometimes
Finally a Peter tutorial!!! PETER. IS. BACK. Good to see you're enjoying your work again. I know how rough the grind can be.
Right! The past few videos haven’t been interesting to me.
Yes!
Word!!!
@@igugulethu7 Yup. To the point that I hit the unsubscribe button.
@@igugulethu7 "everyone?" Not me. I just dumped Sling TV because I'm watching him 24/7 (catching up).
You have some serious skills. They should make you an Avenger! 👏🙌
Thanks for the amazing tips as always Peter! Such a stellar idea to use templates as a way to learn by reverse engineering a finished project!
Hi and all the best for all of you watching 😇🙏👊
I love the blade sound effect at 1:03; it's spot on and perfectly complements the skull and knives. Pete, you nailed it!
We are in love with your unique style to create things! It inspires us to push our boundaries even more! Thank you, Pete✌️💙
Simply the best. As always Peter. I have to say that I am using DaVinci Resolve and almost all of those effects are available in this software so this tutorial was helpful even for me :)
I love these 2 Minute Tuesdays that are definitely a lot longer, but they're definitely worth more than 2 minutes, even if it wasn't a 2 minute Tuesday, and just a normal tutorial. PM never, NEVER Fails to keep us entertained and learning new things all at the same time!
twenty minute tuesday!
have Christmas package for you
How the sound effects of each clip blends together is insane. Please make a video on sound design on fast clips too.
Love the tutorial! Just a small tip so you don’t have 200+ layers, pre-compose sections/effects if you can. Saves space and protects the work you already did 👍🏻
I absolutely love the blade sound effect at 1:03. It's bang on and leads to the skull and knives so well. You crushed it Pete!
Yeah, that's legit.
absolutely great tutorial my man! The way you present yourself, talk to the viewers, just everything... love it brotha
Super cool tutorial! Just want to point out for anyone already using Premiere, you can do all of this within PrPro and some of the things are actually easier than Ae’s method and also not as sluggish (processor heavy). Just nest your clips as you go and you won’t be left with so many stacks 🤙 Definitely some great ideas in this tutorial that’s got my brain fired up! 🔥🧠⚡️🤘
Perfect video, I've literally been trying to teach myself some of these and other techniques that you used in past intros. Pumped now.
That was great and I could really feel how much you enjoyed making that too!! Virtual hats off my friend ! Always inspiring I love it when you get the new channel intro every year
Thanks so much for showing us that stuff like this isn't impossible!!! TBH I love your tutorials more than your other videos 💪🏼

Thanks Peter! I’ve been wanting to learn about After Effects for a while now and here’s my opportunity!

Great video chef Peter! Getting back into AE, and using your tutorials for inspiration.
I love the music-free intro concept. Nice one, man.
Thanks Pete! Not for the tutorial ifself, ( although its really awesome) , but your effort to get channel introes back in 2022.. i kinda hate it that everyone just cuts everything for retention%!your video is a lot more than just a tutorial.. its a beacon of hope to get people their channel identity back.
