[@riannecopter6920]

@@emowhofromwhoville can i ask you about the pre composition i dont understand that :(

[@txramiisuii]

@@riannecopter6920 Pre-composing pretty much just makes your original clip into a new clip, so all other transitions you put in the original clip just becomes a new layer and you can't see your effects you did the last time so you also add more effects and don't get messed up. Like for example, i'm seeing two tutorials and I want to do two effects to the clip (slide and position rotation) so you can't add another position to the clip since you already have one position keyframe, so you need to pre-compose that clip and get another position to do the position rotation.

Oh my god. I've spent 7 years editing on videostar as a kid and I'm working as an editor now so I use premiere but haven't used after effects at all and most of the people I work with never touch it because it's intimidating. I haven't touch it because of the same thing but now that I need it for a project, I needed a tutorial. I have never seen someone explain it so easily in years. I am crying, sobbing, bawling, screaming. You are a godsend. You are amazing. Thank you.

**a quick note: thank you so much for this video! i love using the split screen transition! i tend to come back to this video when i use it because i tend to forget. i've learned a lot from you so thank you! i hope you'll continue making more tutorials :)** **hi! this is for editors that couldn't figure out blurmocurves/their motion tile didn't work when you used it w blurmo:** i gave up on blurmocurves because my motion tile wouldn't work, unfortunately. BUT blurmocurves and yk, your classic transform transitions are the same thing, but apparently blurmocurves is smoother. i use transform and my transitions are pretty smooth! using a 'null object' layers to use make your transitions are *chef's kiss*- i've started using nulls to make them even smoother and it works! :) hopefully that helps :) - another beginner ae editor

What I love about you is that your explanation in tutorials are more clear and understanding

[@mariafernandaguimaraes307]

I used vs but wanted to switch to AE because the quality is much better, and I didn't think any tutorial was good, but yours is perfect and helped me a lot! Thank you so much!

sorry this is late but i think you have to make sure that motion blur and the 3d box thingy are enabled

[@g5toz]

MOOD HABHAHA if you download blurmocurves (which is a sapphire plugin) and add it to your clip, it should be there? i gave up on blurmocurves because my motion tile wouldn't work. blurmocurves and yk, your classic transform transitions are the same thing, but apparently blurmocurves is smoother. i use transform and my transitions are pretty smooth sometimes! i've started using nulls to make them even smoother and it works! :) hopefully that helps :) - another beginner ae editor

[@madilyn477]

izuku supremacy as a blurmocurves user, you actually don’t want to use motion tile, you want to use wrap X and wrap Y (on blurmocurves) and change both to reflect.

[@lorenamarisa2835]

"the pen amount (anchor) tool" is actually a really helpful tool. It allows you to change the anchor point of your clip (for the ones who don't know what the anchor point is: it is the big point you can postly see in the midle of your clip. And it is the "origin" from all the transitions, meaning: if you do a zoom in transition, it will zoom to your anchor point or if you do a spin rotation it'll spin around your anchor point). This is extremely helpful if you added a mask onto your clip and the anchor point isn't in the centre of the clip anymore, so you can just move it back to the centre. I however like to use it for spin rotations to create different transitions. It's only important for the transitions if you don't use Blurmocurves though since blurmocurves has an own anchor point that you can simply drag around however you would like to :) I hope this was helpful for anyone

[@akshkish]

I’m gonna be very addicted if I learned AE, it seems very hard at first but when you get used to it, your edits are gonna be so much better

There should be a timer icon under the effect/transformation and if you click it, a keyframe should appear :)

I don't even have After Effects, I plan to get it, I was an editor for Alight Motion and Kinemaster, Alight Motion for edits and Kinemaster for normal videos, both phone apps, and I switched to Premiere Pro, I mastered it, now I want to master After Effects to be a God HAHA, your way of explaining is very simple, I love it, you deserve everything good in this world. By the way, I HATE the curves in Premiere Pro, they're horrible, I've been trying to understand them for a while now and they're a mess, the ones in After Effects seem to be more understandable. 💜
