Comments If you’ve been using After Effects for a long time, you may have forgotten some of the more useful features over time. If this sounds like you, then have I got an article for you!
Over at Pro Video Coalition’s “Motion Graphics and Visual Effects” section, Chris Zwar has written up a 5 part series called, “After Effects Leftovers”, which features over 40 tips, tricks, workflow suggestions and general reminders about topics like layout, masking, painting, rendering and even the After Effects interface. Along with the articles are helpful videos. Click the links for those at the end of each article. There are corresponding project files that are available from Chris Zwar’s website, as well.
Sounds good? Then hop right over to the series and read all about it in the following locations.
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5
If you have any questions, keep in mind that you can always find info at the After Effects Help Forums or the Manual.
My co-worker Todd Kopriva has an extensive blog on Chris Zwar’s series over at the After Effects Region of Interest here: http://bit.ly/bB8Ji1
Stroll over and take a look!
