[@BeatsByMarcos]

I'm realizing that Andrew doesn't even monetize his videos 😧

[@celebritv6798]

yo are u the same marcos who made this sci-fi movie? kzbin.info/www/bejne/foDPhIuuZcmYfNE

[@ValJedi]

he monetizes by working on star wars movies...

[@Muzly]

He made more money off me through his products than he could dream of making through youtube monetisation (not complaining, the products are off the charts!) Element 3d, Shockwaves, Motion Pulse, they don't come cheap :)

[@teknomancer6024]

Andrew! Good to see you back, buddy. Missed you...

[@jakesnack6778]

Beats By Marcos Are you stupid 90% of his videos are advertisements for his products.

[@armaganvideos]

Ohh man dear Andrew.. I kinda grew up with your tutorials, sitting in my little room, doing all sorts of dumb VFX with friends. Now I've grown up, got my own channel and I am still here sitting and figuring out on how to implement your new techniques into my videos to annoy friends. I guess life doesn't really change too much right? Thanks for all your videos throughout the years and thanks for getting this started back then. I also really appreciate that you always try to show NEW techniques and concepts that you found out about yourself, rather than just copying trends.. Original and quality content is so rare these days, I really understand why these videos are coming in irregular intervals. All your success is hardly earned and I wish you a lot more of it. Keep your funny attitude and all the best.

[@TikeLeSpike]

I absolutely agree.

[@3Dgamespot]

ArmaganVideos then you need help

[@shitchops]

Well said sir Armagan. I started with Andrew in 2011 doing a course. VCP feels like an old freind these days !

[@COYSMate05]

After all these years he is still one of the greatest at motion graphics. And his resume and craft shine through! He is one of the reasons I got into video

[@You_Tech]

It's not just a glitch tutorial. There are so many little and vital technics to learn here that we can use on so many things. Thanks a lot for this another exciting tutorial man! 😃

[@advanced7467]

ikr? Especially the floor texture got me attracted to the video!

[@Pixelkripta]

Just like any other Videocopilot tutorial. You learn so much in so little time. Andrew is awesome

[@DenisTriton]

Да-да, тут очень большой потенциал. А различные техники порой забываются.

[@Thysta]

Exactly.

[@Krazy_Corn]

Insane….

[@medienkasper]

I've maybe spent 12 hours with this 35 minute video and I'm still not completely done with the effect. Thanks for this awesome tutorial! :D

[@romanreignsforever5382]

He's back with a bang

The man worked in Star Wars, and keeps making these amazing tutorials. You gotta love Andrew.

[@Kvodan]

So happy you come back bro. I miss you. Prepare for amazing tutorial =)

[@harounben342]

It's been a decade man, seen him grow up in the business, wanted to do something when I was in high school. Now, it's been a couple of years since I graduated from university and he is still a teacher to many of us. A teacher is always a teacher... a great teacher.

[@harounben342]

PS: I see people saying he is absent for 9 months idk, well I didn't check for you since years and years :'(

[@mljuben]

Thank you for putting your time and energy into making these awesome pieces of content. Your tutorials are among the first I got to watch when I got into video and editing. Pretty much every cool thing I can make, I learned by watching your tutorials. Skills I picked up along the way are a big part of what's helped me land the job I have right now. You're the guy that made that happen, and I just wanted to let you know that there is someone out there whose life you influenced in a very good way.

[@dedrec]

many times doing this thing, but no one successful, i hate u Andrew, u always doing best thing

[@Workbenchtv]

Great tip on the compound blur. I love that effect. I've done that water floor trick in the past by masking out the floor layer, but that's a great way to get the floor texture in there. Excellent use of set channels too! And you gave me a great idea for a tutorial as well. Great tutorial as always! Welcome back Andrew!

[@AnkitSharma-sy6yu]

Found you! I wish one day the AE community will yearn and wait with such vigor for your tutorials as well !!

[@Workbenchtv]

Haha, thanks!

[@Workbenchtv]

Thanks!

[@FLOWTUTS]

_- heyyy

[@Workbenchtv]

Hi!

[@fxguidetips]

You taught me After Effects 🙏, good old days when you use to publish tuts on creative cow. Thanks!

[@CKTDanny]

I'm a simple man. I see a Video CoPilot tutorial, I press like :)

[@flakes8011]

SDG Danny u have copied the dialog right

[@robhein]

So cool, did you also comment on the first one, and the one before that? Awesome!

[@hvdatt]

same

[@NoisR]

me too

[@burnforce]

I'm a simple man. I see a comment I like. I copy and paste it.

[@kagune6585]

Just discovered your channel thanks to the video with Corridor Digital...I’m so glad you were there, for real, your channel is amazing and you’re a guy that wants to help everyone out there, which is something really special. For that, thank you so much.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Great to have you back and in full action once again!!! Another great tutorial Andrew. Thanks for all you do and I hope you and the family are all doing well.

[@Mr.RohitRajput]

After Effects would never be same if you weren't doing these tuts since decade. Lot of respect and love for you man

[@gaetanosman]

browsing through Andrew's tutorials is like entering a candy shop, overwhelmed with goodies and deliciousness

[@xavierortiz1294]

I remember being in highschool, watching your videos back when i had CS2 (?) something along the lines of that... But, i loved following through your tutorials in my slow, warrior of a Dell computer that did its best to load a simple particle generator and now seeing your videos again in 2020 brings back so many memories

[@mrtjay019]

Gave me life seeing video copilot come across my screen

[@TikeLeSpike]

This is genius. Really, I just realized how long I haven't followed any (mainly VC) AE tutorials which I did in the past and how much I'm missing it. And there are so many cool techniques here! My mind is blown...

[@skinnysamurai]

I'VE JUST STARTED ON VISUAL EFFECTS/AFTER EFFECTS AND THESE TUTORIALS ARE MY LIFE 😍 (sorry for caps)

[@tfactor_gaming]

sir! thank you so much! been up all night finally found this! finished in an hour! very clear tutorial!

[@kerepekpisang3171]

This feels more like a class than a tutorial

[@ioncamin5]

I started watching this video in a serious mood,to get it from the 1st watch,i cant hold it straight now cause of the Tide Pod joke...dude you are a living Legend

[@lachrymaL]

be ready to see that in every youtube intros from now on

[@Artemisth]

I've started working with after effects at the beginning of March, and I have to say that your videos are a fuel to my creativity and a real godsend. I've learned more in 3 weeks that I could probably have in a year at school.

[@iR3birth]

i just spent the day running through this tutorial. As a beginner to After Effects and only a few years in the Adobe Suite... I'm hooked. Looking forward to checking out more of your content. Thank you times a million. -R3

[@NeologicStudios]

Awesome tutorial! I love how simple it is at the core of the concept but you can get so crazy and detailed with it! Also, great work on the Glitch SFX pack, one sound-designer to another it's pretty awesome! Let me know if you ever need help with audio!

[@YabrakProds]

man every time that beat drops you already know its Andrew Kramer here back with another exciting tutorial

[@emahitube]

After a long time your back andrew

[@viedowala]

Ohh man dear Andrew.. I kinda grew up with your tutorials, echo echo........... Thanks for all your videos throughout the years and thanks a lot. You make us evolve.

[@DanteMetaphor]

A hundred years later... Andrews videos are still as mindblowing and fun as they always were

[@krypto61]

WELCOME BACK TO ANTOTHER VERY EXCITING TUTORIAL :>

[@is_hero]

we are going to create this..

[@playmate7638]

such a blessing to come across your Chanel… learned so much in this vid and you didn’t try to trick me by using paid effects that I don’t wanna pay for. Thank you so much.

[@winterfoxcloud]

That bit about the Tidepods at the beginning had me laughing harder than I care to admit

[@Cloudax_]

Oh my god!!! I actually thought the channel was dead. Its good to see the visual effects guy I respect the most came back to KZbin with another great tutorial.

[@jhene1298]

"You can give this animation a little life" "Not also this much life"

[@TheFormsPlays]

I've been following you guys since the first 10 tutorials. This one in particular is unbelievable. Really good techniques and the visual concept is wondrous. Congrats!

[@AnoopSeth]

You always bring amazing tutorials for us

[@iLAMV]

It was just a matter of time/patience and not a matter of luck 'till AK would come back to us with a full fledged tutorial.

[@evetodew]

Hahah, "That reminds me of that commercial...." *pause* ..... "errrr..." "Yeah, so moving on." :D:D Thanks Andrew, for the subtle humor! Loving your videos! Extremely inspiring!

[@TarekAlShawwa]

23:02, my jaw literally dropped, at the begining of the tutorial i didn;t think i would care about the reflection effect, i thought to myself "yeah just duplicate the layer and flip it" but the technique you showed was amazing, thank you for this amazing tutorial !!!!

[@ElishaOdy]

I can't seem to get the compound blur to work on the floor texture layer

[@TiagoBacana]

MELHOR CANAL DE EDIÇÃO DO MUNDO

[@whitfx23]

I've been hankering for a chance to match the quality of that "privacy is a crime" video and finally have the tools to - make it happen. Thanks VCP ;)

[@ubrna]

2:25 He centers the word displace🤣😂😂what a legend

[@SakshamThukral]

This Channel BLEW MY MIND! Wow, God, what did we all do to deserve this awesomeness?

[@elhizkia]

i believe that andrew is the founder of after effect .

[@nasirmagomedov2371]

Hello, Andrew. You are my teacher more than 6 years! Thank you for all your lessons.

[@techrz888]

The font I found to be similar to his was Steelfish ExtraBold from 1001fonts

[@sashomedia]

Welcome back Mr.Kramer. So excited! Thanks for your time share again this amazing tutorial, helping out boost our productions!

[@AntoCharles]

Time to see everyone use this for intros lol

[@MinetteDubs]

Literally every fucking time...

[@floppypaste]

Anto Charles Sure

[@hollywoo81]

haha I agree! But that's also great for him I think :) if you saw the tutorial you put so much time and effort into be used by other people for their stuff then I'd be proud. Otherwise maybe not make public tutorials on how to do things ^^"

[@morecarstuff]

youtube intro template starter pack

[@Othmantamimofficial]

I swear you can create many styles of this, but people stupid enough to download the template and only change the text

[@patgedeon]

Andrew and the Crew, you are the best, thank you.

[@hisroyalillness]

Only curves, fractal noise, blur and displacement. You can use this technique in any compositing program since 1995 #knowyourtools #basics

[@MsTrash666]

Most advance glitch tutorial on whole KZbin! So much tips that's I returning here one-two times in three month

[@d415izmyne]

does anyone else face light up when you hear that classic intro with the music in the background

[@TikeLeSpike]

d415izmyne Yep.

[@ictschool1003]

You are the best advance tutorials teacher in the world.

[@kylewong8474]

Hi, do anyone have the footage of this video? Cus the download link doesn't work for me I don't know why. Happy if someone could help. I really like this effect

[@dynomik]

why the heck you dont seem getting older :D Seriously thanking you for all of your wonderful support over all this 1000 years! You and your team is the best could happen to this industry! Biggest respect and 1000x thanks.

[@Buurtwacht]

When I add the displacement map onto the new solid (2:48) it won't show the map Andrew gets. Instead my layer stays black. Can anyone explain what i'm doing wrong? Would love to know..

[@DJShadesUK]

I don't really ever really fanboy but Andrew is a certified genius!

[@marcobucci]

Totally rad.

[@llehsaderob]

This is one of the best glitch tutorials on youtube, and I've looked.

[@rlg799]

It's not a Video Copilot video without Fractal Noise.

[@totalbullion5882]

Right? You know that's coming first thing haha

[@kill-all-humans]

and another adjustment layer

[@SuperMannyphoto]

Ha so true!!

[@BornoVisuals]

@@kill-all-humans I love Adjustment layer😂

[@ralphmoreau2768]

graphic scientists ...

[@naimulislam2762]

You came back at last. We've missed u so much , Love from Bangladesh

[@CameraStudio]

This Tutorial is awesome again. These 9 Month were a hard time, but it ends now. ps. What is with the shortfilm between you and Film Riot.

[@JanPlaymo]

I waited for it a long time

[@ToDoList]

AMAZING

[@extraone3928]

He did an awesome job

[@joshsjunk365]

The Futur did a podcast with him. In the middle he explains how it’s “almost done” but knows they’re probably be more postponements.

[@AlphaTv007]

I've been Waiting For that all My life.

[@rbsn3d]

I‘ve got only one word to say: WOW! 😳 ...it looks so damn easy after watching you building the effects but as always it‘s damn hard to get this results starting with a white paper. Never heard of „Compound Blur“ but this effect gives it that WOW-touching look that pushes the whole thing with the effort of seconds. Genius, Andrew...as always!

[@2023roadstervet]

You sir are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TikeLeSpike]

90% Veteran Studios Yep. He is.

[@4keffects201]

999% You won so claim your free download with in the next day!!!!!

[@老四-c9i]

The MAN is back,I have to tell my grandpa.

[@mashakos5377]

brace yourselves... kids showreels with this effect are coming.

[@bockariepharajsheriff418]

Andrew you will always inspire me... You will kill us with these powerful animation

[@JoeSullivan7]

Andrew would still have a successful career if he switched to doing comedy

[@hazonku]

Right? I always feel bad when he throws out a zinger at industry presentations & nobody laughs. Like there's some unwritten rule that you can't laugh or the presenter will think it's at them, not with them.

[@rakmichal]

I admire your ideas, Andrew. I hope you will publish more such 100% after effects tutorials in the future! The most useful channel on KZbin!

[@cheesenippz8403]

When I repeat edge pixels on the fast box blur effect the text does not animate and is un-seeable any reason why?

[@marcelowiek]

Sometimes I wonder how insane and mathematical may be Andrew's mind to think and to "export" such wonderful ideas, tutorials and content. You, sir, are the guy and my greatest inspiration.

[@LennyGaming]

I'm having alot of trouble because After Effects is not cooperating with me and even if i follow the exact Tutorial still something does not work in the end for no reason. I swear i'm not doing anything wrong. The Programm for example won't let me turn on "repeat edge pixels" or the glich effect will stop animating for no reason. WTF to be honest

[@LennyGaming]

Even changing the value of the Contrast on the Fractial Noise is resulting in the animation to stop existing...

[@Damzedrummer]

I have exactly the same thing. Did ya get any answer ?

[@LennyGaming]

Damien Hendrichs not yet

[@vfxcircle1917]

Try changing the order of the fractal noise. Moving the fast box blur between fractal noise 1 and 2 worked for me.

[@LennyGaming]

VFX Circle ok ill try that then :)

[@FelixStach]

It's great to have you back!

[@brandwild1]

You have single-handedly changed my life with these videos. Thank you for sharing!

[@CedricGreutmann]

I got a small issue, maybe someone can help with. I tried to follow along, when I try to add the fast box blur, my second fractal noise layer starts to ignore the screen blend mode and all i see in the displacement map comp is the second fractal noise effect with the small dashes, not both combined like it is supposed to be. Anyone know what is happening?

[@fredaves268]

Same problem with me. :(

[@sashomedia]

Same even when I check repeat edges in Fast Box Blur

[@Taine2605]

What helps me was to put the Fast Box Blur between Fractal Noise 1 & 2... If u put it over the Fractal Noise 1 u have the same issue... IDK why, but it works. ^^ And if u have the same problem as me, that the fractal noise 2 dont work together with the brightness of the fractal noise 1, i put the blende mode on add instead of screen... it look a bit different, but u have the advantage that the both fractal noise work together. :)

[@sashomedia]

I think I have tried this already. Its seems to be randomly appeared as bug. However I will try again they way you describe. Thanks for your tip!

[@sashomedia]

Which AE version you are using? For me it does seems to be a bug in AE CC 2017. At least this is my version. Mover over in provided project files are two 2018 and CC 2015 version. I couldn't open the newer one, however in CC 2015 I don't have that issue.

[@jubinjohnbro]

Your video are always awesome....... 35 mins and 100 of tips..... I never knew we can do so much using Factual noise and set matte.... You are just AWESOME!

[@JJLvfx]

Where is intercept?

[@blenderguru]

I think it was onboard that tesla that got shot into space

[@seabedrock]

Blender Guru lmao, you're the best

[@blackham7]

I dont get it what is intercept? Is it some inside joke?

[@TikeLeSpike]

blackham7 It's a short film andrew started to make a few years ago and he still hasn't finished it (he probably never will) which kinda has become an insider, yep.

[@Chribit]

*plays "never gonna give you up" while staring at the intercept teaser*

[@Ephergie]

My word - he's BACK! I can now replace my F5 button on my keyboard :-) We missed ya, buddy!

[@INearYouVL]

What is the name of this font by which he writes "Displace"?

[@FrykeMikeOfficial]

Im a bit late to the party but i heard it's Tandelle.

[@edwardbrainerd2741]

whole drifferent and inspriring glitch style id ever seen ! love it broo !

[@AEPlug]

А мужики то не знают :)

[@aeplug-aftereffectstutoria9210]

yes )

[@el_venitos]

знаем мы все!

[@AEPlug]

всё, но не все!

[@el_venitos]

согласен) ну, рассказывай тогда не просвященным

[@el_venitos]

есть вопросик. А как сделать подобное отражение на стене ЗА надписью? я могу отправить тебе скрин для наглядности. Работа готова, но я уверен, что отражение не помешает

[@GenesiWaves]

The lord hath returned

[@XpressStudiosforyou]

Which font did u use for the text ??

[@RumleKjaer]

I wanna know that too!

[@Tomydurand]

Tandelle regular i think!

[@Phoenix-gz9xb]

probably bebes

[@celebritv6798]

Tandelle regular 20$

[@DW-dl7bk]

This is a pretty cool effect. Glad I found this channel. Trying to convert the process in After Effects over to Lumafusion has been...a process.

[@kombatwot]

o my god, are you are human, Andrew? Simple human can't invent such an awsome thing like this

[@TheJerry6741]

Glitch FX is a combination of all effects I can use in After effect. It is inspiring me a lot!

[@Wisdom2thMusic]

Welcome back Andrew!

[@molinex]

Welcome back Andrew it has been ages !

[@Ripper7620]

Excellent tutorial as always! I'm totally new to Ae, but was able to follow along, although I had the timecode set to fps, instead of normal, & it took me awhile to figure out how to change it back. Thank you very much for doing these in-depth tutorials, they're a godsend for a beginner like myself. P.S. your madness is so infectious, I went ahead and added SABER!

[@rahuldeshpande9997]

Rotational concept of the glitch is brilliant!

[@bingobrigade]

Some of the transparency and masking tips were super good man. Really helpful.

[@Nynex]

Dammit Andrew!! Its awesome. The problem is that we will now see this on every network from 2018-2023 or until your next tutorial

[@SquigglyLines2024]

19 years later and i still come back to Video Copilot and learn something new. Andrew Kramer is the original AE OG

[@MicheleeiRettili]

The song in the preview at 00:25... what is it? I want it, sounds SOOOOO good!!

[@brznin]

"We're actually gonna use the displacement map to drive the colorization" ... That must be the first time i'm aroused by that kind of statement, omg thanks so much Andrew !

[@acegamingyt4770]

even there is a project file you can't manage to edit it if you can't watch this tutorial, thanks for this one Video Copilot team

[@tavisr]

Theres a link in the description, but I'm having trouble downloading the file myself :(
