There is no reason not to watch this series of effect explainers. Excellent breakdown, as always.
I'm loving these.
Where have you been all my life? This is gold.
Never thought I'd enjoy a video with "Ball Action" in the title. It was great.
Just when I thought I had mastered After Effects, Jake shows up and makes me feel like I've only scratched the surface.
I'm so loving these tutorials. Keep up the good work bro! 🔥🔥🔥
I use this effect mainly for exporting a texture for C4D to create LED video walls 👌🏼
This Ball Action tutorial is phenomenal! I was looking far and wide for a way to create fake scatterplots (dots on an x-y grid) to illustrate bad use of correlation, ones that could animate from one to the next. I was looking at Particle effects and going down a rabbit hole. Then I thought I'd need to use brute force with 50 little circles on different layers. This tutorial on the Ball Action effect saved my behind! I applied it to a shape (using a mask to draw the area I wanted the dots to appear), animated the mask when I needed to, changed the Scatter amount as needed, and voila! Thanks Jake!
The DNA trick is awesome
Is there a way to make it scatter more or less depending on the brightness of a black to white gradient?
YOU. ARE. AWESOME.
Love this AE effect library videos. watching this I got many ideas to use for animations.
Jake is awesome🤩
Wow Jake, thank you for these tuts
This is great. thanks for that, Jake
So many possibilities. Thank you.
Thank you for making videos for us
Great tut, thx bud!
tanx Jake ..... great como siempre
Bonito y Barato (Nice and Cheap/Fast for the processor/Render). Thanks for this Series! Just Priceless.
Nice one.. Will be more effective with example..
Thank you!
Nice tutorial. Does anyone know how get rectangles instead of balls?
Awesome video as always, got me wondering. Can i use CC Ball Action for some pixel sorting effect? Any thoughts? I would love a tutorial for pixel sorting. Thank you for showing the ins and outs on After Effects.
interesting result :)
thanks
a lot
Just realised looking into someone's else project file that CC Ball Action can be used to create a grid of dots.
Great!
Great sir
Thanks from syria.
Wow

bro i just wanted to make an LED text board - someone help lol
AE needs real 3d space 😑 even hitfilm and fusion have it
It actually does, and even true 3d geometry! It's just....not that fun to work with.
@@JakeInMotion Indeed it does! I personally love combining 2D layers with 3D effects and cameras. I did this a lot with a project I did for my grad project recently! ua-cam.com/video/jNBamI0n0Xg/v-deo.html
(CC Ball Action at 1:22 😁)
But yea it does have some weird quirks you have to work around :/
(Sorry if you're getting this twice, something seemed to go wrong)
@@timeijs12 how to do the work around. I am trying to add 2 instances on 3d aware effects on 2 separate layers in one comp. when I rotate the 3D breaks. I am scratching my head over this. any help is much appreciated. and by the way your film is beautiful.
The most unfortunate name on the creative cloud...
This series is like someone showing me delicious new recipes using the food I already have in my fridge
