"You are truly a hero! I'm currently editing a video where I'm emulating Ali Abdal's style. I've managed to replicate about 90% of Ali's style, but there are instances where partnering up is necessary. and you came at the right moment when I needed you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and Efforts. Keep going 🤗🙌

Appreciate that! And same to you!

[@adamkovac7978]

as many already said, amazing video! keep it up!

[@Chologoyolo]

Best tutorial series I am looking for,but the audience is limited ,the quantity of people who want to make good videos is small，otherwise this channel will blew up🎉 Why don’t you make a new channel that have your personal motion graphic style talking about something

[@FumezCreates]

Well said fam. This is so true. I have noticed this in all the video editing education channels I follow. The number of people interested in learning and applying these techniques are super niche and small. I love channels like these they are absolute gold. I have learnt a lot from them. Like you said it's only when you use those motion design and animation skills to discuss a wider topic do you tap into a larger viewership and engagement. Another channel like you suggested can achieve that.

[@ya7iaojerbi869]

your videos are really useful , thank you for the effort put into it

[@mapal]

Glad you like them!

[@Subhameditss]

Trust me this is gonna blow up

[@mapal]

I wouldn't complain if it did!

Ali uses AtomX Collage Kit for the collage animation :) cheers

Great Video. Keep em coming! 😄

[@Arpannnn_]

The Paper animation can be made using a plugin with few clicks

[@mapal]

Sometimes it’s not about efficiency or finding ways to “cheat”. Sometimes it’s about adding soul, life, character, uniqueness to the work

Great tutorial ❤ could you also please add what keys are you using as sometime we couldn't get what effect r u using or how did it worked.

[@Blessmusicstream]

Awesome as always, could you please tell me from where you have learnt this amount of wisdom with perfection, i know practice makes a man perfect, but without right knowledge it is impossible, please let us know which course you have done and from where?

[@mapal]

I haven’t done any courses. Everything I know just comes from trial and error, conversations, KZbin videos, and practice

[@Blessmusicstream]

@@mapal COOL,I LOVE THAT.

[@keepingupwithClimate]

can you also provide assets for us to practice, would be of great help. Thanks:)

[@elchattt]

Hello, I really like this style of collage, but I did not understand it well. How do you place those pieces of paper on the couple, how do you know in what position they should go so that when the frames run it has the unfolding effect?

[@mapal]

Print out the picture of the couple, cut them out, then fold them one by one just like you see in the example with the pink circle. If you need multiple variations you can print out a couple and fold them in different directions. You're essentially folding backwards so think about it like you're reversing the animation!

[@elchattt]

Perfect. Thank you so much! @@mapal

[@benzinamoktar2265]

​@mapal 0:23 How do you make those super nice titles and background animation ?

[@Real5Head]

​@@mapaland how do we call that style or that effect ?

[@ditoadhikari7573]

the paperfold do we have to edit it on PS , or we can straight import the file to AE ?

[@brainfart_]

how do u do that sequence things u said and instantly the time frame are neat and continuous?

[@ernestlovesguitar]

do u need to use a tripod to take the stop motion pictures? Because i noticed that u didn't use one

[@mapal]

You don’t as long as you can keep the camera relatively similar. The iPhone camera has a built in leveller so I just used it to line it up

[@Technologirly]

@mapal i m also attending the course (Manuela) and I requested these effects during the last cohort. You mentioned to save the layers in psd. This even if they overlap one on each other? That part is not clear to me..

[@mapal]

If you drag a psd file into Ae you get all the layers that you have in the photoshop file

[@YonoBakrie-ot2jn]

Hallo can you make tutorial on iphone?

[@mg-4297]

brother can we get paper stop motion pics please that you shot??

[@ridrox]

where are the assets link?

[@NareshKumar-dy4oh]

do we have to really cutout, fold and take photos of it?? or is there any software or effect for it?

[@mapal]

Depends on the results. For best results and custom assets you need to do it yourself. There is a preset pack with a bunch of pre-made cutout animations etc

[@dollarproduction24]

Can you please provide us a link of the paper png's?

[@ckanino]

hi! where can i get sound effects? i've been having trouble finding lately

[@mapal]

I personally use Artlist for all music and sound effects. I have an affiliate link at the very bottom of my description. Feel free to use it if you sign up!

[@unnamed7462]

hii where can i get the assets?

[@aShEdtpkr]

Sir sir love you sir

[@n1t1nnnn]

how do you make the sequence of the cutout ? when you said something like motion tool sequence

[@mapal]

I should’ve elaborated on that. It’s a free plugin. It has a bunch of features but in this case I use the sequencing feature. It lets you sequence layers in a few different ways.

[@samrtr]

Bro you are great literally... I just need some help from you would you please tell me some courses on udemy or course ra where I can learn as I'm novice

[@mapal]

Thank you! I can't recommend any courses from those places cause I don't have any experience but keep an eye out for www.fxfcourse.com/

[@muscle_museum]

Thanks for the video, but please don't use that voice processing, it sound unrealistic, kind of robotic. Are you using an ai to remove the noise?

[@mapal]

I’ve been messing around with Adobe enhance

[@mg-4297]

Can we get your assets please??

[@ryansulak]

how are you sequencing them?

[@mapal]

Most of the time I use motion tools, which is a free plugin. You can also right click on the selected layers > keyframe assistant > sequence layers (iirc)

[@abdullahrasool8621]

can you provide project and asset please?

[@rankgaming3514]

is there any alternative how to achieve that stopmotion folding paper animation? Cause it's a pain sticking work and take too much time I mean its better if we could do preset or script like. well Im just asking Im noob forgive me

[@mapal]

You could recreate it in 3D but nothing will give you the same look as doing it manually. As I mentioned in the video you can create a big library of assets you can reuse. Sometimes the best way is the hard way!

[@rankgaming3514]

Well I guess I'm gonna have to buy a printer 😒. Anyways I love it mate cant wait to see you're channel at the top, thank you and god bless@@mapal

[@mapal]

You can always find old books, magazines, and coloured card stock paper to create some general shapes and assets! That'll probably be cheaper than a printer. Depends on use case tho

[@rankgaming3514]

you're a hero man I can't thank you enough, I wish I could be as good as you in motion graphics, I hope someday @@mapal

[@syedfaiq26]

please teach 0:21 to 0:26

[@syedfaiq26]

from where you downloaded the background?

[@ideaforyou1324]

3:06 how you did it mate??

[@mapal]

As mentioned I used the Motion Tools plugin. You can also select all the layers, right click, keyframe assitant, and then sequence layers. However, Motion Tools just gives you more control! I talked about it in my plugins video

[@ideaforyou1324]

thanks a lot@@mapal

[@laxman10_]

please can you give this phd files

[@mapal]

I can't BUT you can print out whatever you want and make it yourself! It's a super fun process
