[@eddy4719]

Ryan is the best! So glad he is with school of motion.

[@Oddernod]

Too kind Eddy - happy to be of service.

[@JeahnLaffitteAdventures]

It’s always summer with Summers! :D What a baller

[@Oddernod]

Shot caller. (but I do wish I was a little bit taller most of the time)

[@Motion-Graphics-Man]

Every days a school day bro. Much appreciated.

[@Khaledm279]

WAS WAITING FOR THIS !!!!... You guys are literally a Great addition to the Motion Design community. Thank you :)

[@dailysuccess69]

not addition. They are the base

[@Web4Panama]

This is great. It's a bit beyond me at the moment but I'm going to have to bookmark this to watch again. Cheers.

[@RetropunkAI]

Declutter! YES! So awesome! Thank you!

[@3dduff]

Great tips. I am always learning something new from the master.

[@1WillyDAVID]

thanks a lot guys, really key information

[@benwalkeryt]

These are really great, thank you. My favourite so far has been Overlord by Battleaxe for moving stuff instantly between AE / Illustrator without importing.

[@MrPada143]

This is gold.We need 5 more :)

[@Oddernod]

I'll get to it ;)

[@allthingsmotion]

Thank you for this. btw 9:15 I think a Mullet_Cntrl should be required on ALL Rigs

[@Oddernod]

allthingsmotion especially if we could add some soft body dynamics, auto-bounce to it?

[@allthingsmotion]

Ryan Summers it’s on the roadmap for version 1.3. But for soft body and bounce you can integrate it with Newton or use Salon Selectives M and some Aqua Net.

[@giosanfilippo]

Every single School of motion video shocks me making me see how many alternatives there are on After FX alone!!!

[@mariusmatthysen2355]

Thank you SO much for sharing this! Absolutely AE-Life changing stuff here. You guys are awesome!!

[@semillerimages]

That shift-drag thing! WHAT!!!! I need to read through the whole set of keyboard shortcuts!

[@Oddernod]

I still find ones I didn't know about!

[@3dduff]

A long time joke is that even the current developers of AE don't know all the hidden and forgotten keyboard shortcuts.

[@cmdcreativity]

What's the feature/plugin that is at the left of your AE window with all the fancy colored icons? Also, what is the feature/plugin that has all of the strips of color that's near that colored icon bar? I'm really curious, thanks!

[@Oddernod]

kBar with the icons, Prism and Labels 2 in the bottom left.

[@dev_korean]

I want to know taskbar software name. please let me know

[@4ECTb]

Hey man, that was super helpful, thank you! I've been using Ae for a few years now and I didn't know about half the things you said in this video! Usually videos of this kind is mostly about stuff that everyone already knows, like Particular or Motion2, but on SoM you keep the same high standartds as always. Cheers! By the way, what is the scripts I see in the left part of your screen?

[@bogi4589]

The very left of the whole window.. that is Kbar.. very useful and powerful plugin. I'm wondering what are those icons he has to the left of the timeline (not referring to Label 3)

[@Oddernod]

@@bogi4589 That's PRISM - it almost made the list for this video. Combined with Labels it's a really great workflow booster.

[@bogi4589]

@@Oddernod thanks. I'll check it out. By the way awesome video. I already had 3 of those plugins but Smart Key and Render Hogs are going to be great additions :)

[@itsmrbilal]

Hi,You are so impressive and your tutorials always realy helpful for me. Can you tell which Script you have added on left side of AE in vertical shape. I will be really grateful of you.

[@Oddernod]

That would be kBar - it gives you the ability to create "shelves" of buttons that call up scripts, effects, and expressions.

[@itsmrbilal]

@@Oddernod Thanks Ryan

[@dieulafoysouza5875]

Amazing tricks, thanks

[@lopsangdlama]

I am amazed by Lazy 2

[@pluginplay]

Aye aye glad you like our tool!

[@Sbhnh0]

Awesome!!!

[@swagohmgo]

@0:46, can we get a tutorial on how to make the animation slide in with the text like that?

[@pluginplay]

Thanks for the feature ❤️Lazy 2 is a convenient one, even if it's deceptively named ;)

[@Oddernod]

Thanks so much for developing it - it's an actual joy to work with!

[@malikdean5509]

What are the things that are located at the left hand side? Seems like a toolbar or quick navigation bar? Anybody knows? 🤔 🤔 🤔

[@Oddernod]

The furthest left is K-Bar - lets you create a shelf for commonly used scripts, effects, even snippets of code that you find yourself using over and over. It's essential. The bottom right two are Labels and PRISM.

[@malikdean5509]

@@Oddernod thx a lot for the answer. :)

[@romanlizun5289]

Heck, at Voltron moment I've pressed Spacebar and Cmd+LArrow to see animation frame by frame. Oh wait, how do you do it on youtube?

[@HMalem]

Whoa man Lazy 2 just blew my mind ... I no longer have to deal with range selectors ... I'm a free man

[@Oddernod]

It's deceptively powerful. If I didn't have it in my interface, I probably wouldn't be trying out different offsets of my animations.

[@pluginplay]

[@pluginplay]

​@@Oddernod We always love hearing how others are getting a use out of our tools :) Cheers to experimenting!

[@edialedrisi77]

what is the name of left tab ???????????? plssss

[@deswzc4091]

wonderful.thx

[@jeepeng]

Lazy2, this is was i was thinking of while i was doing the "dirty work", moving keyframe, frame by frame, layer by layer and a lot of calculation. Press "Preview"...DANG! it's not right, let's do it over again..... wish I've seen this video last year.....

[@MoeSilver22]

These are some really professional tips man, thank you for sharing :-) you can easily duplicate and separate comps by duplicating them in both the project manager and the composition manager then hold Alt and drag the duplicated comp from the project manager and put it on top of the duplicated one in the composition area and it should work without any linking issues :-)

[@hoozn]

keep in mind, though, that every precomp, that was nested inside the one you duplicated, has to be duplicated and replaced as well. moreover, scripts will still link to the original layers/controllers. and this is where something like true comp duplicator comes in handy.

[@brown2840]

You'd make a great auctioneer

[@yitphady3787]

Ya love this.

[@nasrt]

Live saving real DUD!

[@NPC_YouTube]

What was after effects like 20 years ago? render time for 3 min video? 3 days.

[@davidtuck]

Play at 75% speed then it's less like he's been up all night drinking espresso's

[@unknownknown6854]

Your tutorial is great but plz display the keys that u use in workflow....... We can understand in one single watch time Thnx buddy 👍

[@kiranbalagam4059]

Why my audio and video always in not in real time always will can explain plead

[@davidfitcher2953]

Why some keyframes are round?

[@none53]

why the website ae scripts and plugins sucks ! i get tired by clicking on my update account but nothing happened i bought render hogs but my license is in my profile :( bad experience)

[@Basz112]

I thought my speed was set at 1.25x Great video tho!

[@schoolofmotion]

Training within training, speed listening is the future! Glad you liked it!

[@Ugen4eg]

This is the Ever First video I listened on 0.75x speed.

[@filterinturn]

YOU LEDGEND.

[@yitphady3787]

I hope work for me

[@emerestthisk990]

Speech is too fast but great tips from a real pro

[@shivsharma6511]

[@DonTerrell]

[@sergeiegorkin7873]

[@vanrajdaymatechnicalsuppor5691]

Speed of Voice is super fast....

[@sicfxmusic]

[@abebarrera]
