I looked for a good intro to After Effects for a while, I tried many, I'll admit I came to this one reluctantly (who wants a 11 hour class?)... but I knew the minute it started I knew this was the one I wanted. You do a phenomenal job, break things apart in a way that makes lots of sense, you don't digress, don't use technical terms you haven't explained. Honestly, this is extraordinary and it stands miles ahead of everything else I've seen. And you offer it for free! Honestly, Jack, you're a saint and a fucking brilliant guy. And seem fun, serious without taking yourself too seriously.

[@msmit1999]

Good guide on people starting with after effects. I want to add quite a lot of things though. (you need a 100 hours to actually explain after effects, or more...) Center your layer anchor point with Layer > Transform > Center anchor point in layer (shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + Home) Set your start timecode to completely 0 by just typing a single 0, you can also just type 5:00 and it will be 5 seconds, same applies for the length. Create your own text animations with animators and range selectors. Set the shape (open advanced) to ramp up or down and animate the offset. This will overlap the current animation over multiple characters. You can add multiple properties to this range selector. For example the scale, opacity and position can all animate as they come in range. Use a loop expression to repeat existing keyframes. Alt-click the stopwatch of the property you want to loop and type: loopOut('') or loopIn('') (loop before or after the keyframes) then type one of these beteween the quotes. Cycle (default, start to end then repeat), Pingpong (start to end, end to start), Continue (takes current velocity and adds it over time), Offset (Add values on top of each other, example: 100 > 200 > 190 > (starts the loop) 290 > 280.) I prefer using masks and a stroke effect to create a write on effect. You just use paths as masks and animate from 0% to 100%. It is much easier to edit as there are not so many confusing keyframes. Use Ctrl + Alt + C to copy with property links. This way all properties of the effect are linked to the original and you only have to change 1 to change it all. You could also apply the effect to the composition to apply it to everything Graph Editor: To make more complicated animations, you need the graph editor. You can use the graph editor for any animated object to get a visual representation for the animation over time. You can change the handles on the anchor points to create different a ease in and out. The value graph is the most intuitive and it displays the value over time, you also have the speed graph which displays speed over time. Sometimes you cant use the value graph since a property like a path for example doesn't have a numeric value. When masking it's very useful to set the mask mode to none so you can see everything You can create a mask on a shape layer either by just right clicking the layer > new > mask. Or if you want to use a shape or the pen tool you can toggle creating shapes to creating masks by clicking on the checkerboard mask next to the star shape to the right of the toolbar. Layer properties shortcuts: Hold shift to bring up multiple at a time Anchor point: A Position: P Scale : S Rotation: R Opacity: T Shortcuts to edit length and time of layers/keyframes and move the playhead, these are really useful so you don't have to zoom in to your timeline to accurately move thee things i : Moves the playhead to inpoint of selected layer o : Moves the playhead to outpoint of selected layer Home: Moves the playhead to the start of the composition End: Moves the playhead to the end of the composition Page up: Moves the playhead 1 frame forwards Page down: Moves the playhead 1 frame backwards Shift + Page up: Moves the playhead 10 frames forwards Shift + Page down: Moves the playhead 10 frames backwards J: Moves playhead to the previous keyframe in the selected layer K: Moves playhead to the next keyframe in the selected layer [ : Moves layer inpoint to the playhead (moves entire layer) ] : Moves layer outpoint to the playhead (moves entire layer) Alt + [ : Moves layer inpoint to the playhead (moves inpoint only) Alt + ] : Moves layer outpoint to the playhead (moves outpoint only) Ctrl + [ : Moves selected layer down by 1 in the layer order Ctrl + ] : Moves selected layer up by 1 in the layer order Ctrl + Shift + [ : Moves selected layer to the bottom in the layer order Ctrl + Shift + [ : Moves selected layer to the top in the layer order Alt + Page up: Moves selected layers 1 frame forwards Alt + Page down: Moves selected layers 1 frame backwards Alt + Shift + Page up: Moves selected layers 10 frames forwards Alt + Shift + Page down: Moves selected layers 10 frames backwards Alt + Right arrow: Moves selected keyframes 1 frame forwards Alt + Left arrow: Moves selected keyframes 1 frame backwards Alt + Right arrow: Moves selected keyframes 10 frames forwards Alt + Shift + Left arrow: Moves selected keyframes 10 frames backwards Other shortcuts: U: Shows all keyframes in a composition or a selected layer U twice: Shows all modified properties in a composition or a selected layer ~ (tilde, below escape) : Maximize selected panel to entire after effects window (very useful in complex projects to have a huge timeline. F9: Easy ease keyframes B: Sets start of work area to playhead N: Sets end of work area to playhead Ctrl + Shift + X: Trim comp to work area This makes trimming your comp easy, just use the playhead shortcuts and then press B for the start and N for end. Then just trim the comp If your footage is shaky, the effect "warp stabilizer" does a ridiculously good job at stabilizing it and automatically resizes your footage. I didn't expect this comment to be so long lmao, and i've just kept on adding if i realized i forgot something.

I’m cool with after effects so I don’t need to watch, but I’m hitting you a sub and a like for this absolute beast of a video man, fair play. I’m sure people who need to learn AE will benefit from this a lot!

[@mugiwastraesp]

Holy, what an awesome course! Thank you so much for posting this out, it's almost (2023) and it's still very valuable, some of the resources were missing but nothing to serious, providing you replace them with other footage. Overall an amazing experience, covering all the essentials and not digging us through a rabbit hole, but instead giving us what's useful and going straight to how to use it, Tysm Jack! hope your channel regains the traction

[@proofplays4497]

Don’t even own AE but i appreciate the effort you took💪🏻❤️

Hey Jack I am on 2:16:24 and I noticed you move the anchor point frequently, it has been 2 years already and I am assuming that you have already picked this up but just incase, if you highlight a layer and the layers anchor point isnt in the centre then you can press CTRL+ALT+HOME on your keyboard to snap the anchor point to the centre. Loving the video so far

[@Flaco_3dit]

I saw this video 3 times for understand ALL the things you explained. Those was the 33 hours best spent in my life. You are a king

[@towkiie]

Would consider yourself an independent experienced after effects editor now?

[@Flaco_3dit]

@@towkiie It depends on what do you mean by indipendent experienced. I started using and watching tutorials of Adobe premiere pro and after effects with less then 0 knowledge, after this tutorial of Adobe after effects I can easily say I am able to do the 90% of all I need for my necessities (in my case for my KZbin baking channel). So, if you ask me to do something more difficult, probably I should study and try more.

[@towkiie]

@@Flaco_3dit that great, I was asking if you are able to operate around after effects without tutorials.

[@Flaco_3dit]

@@towkiie oh nono, absolutely not. Even if I started using Adobe premiere pro, something like, 6 months before I used for the first time AE and even if the layout and the concept of the software is similar, I would never have been able.

[@lonerwiththecamera]

Glad this showed up in my "recommended" section. Thanks man, but where have you been for the last 5 years?? Kidding, really appreciate you doing this, going to be very handy!

[@innoxgraphics3269]

It's so long. But I hope it will help me get used to ae systematically. Thank you for the video.

[@Jinsama_01]

Finished this in about 5 days. Hands down one of the best Courses laid out for free. I doubt I'd have gotten any value equal to this if I had bought a paid one. The enthusiasm of Jack is amazing. 4 years later and people are still starting their journey with his help.

[@ItsJackCole]

Legend brother happy to lend my assistance 💪 good luck on your editing journey

Jack I have been waiting for this tutorial. Thank u so much bro, you've always been a help.

[@TinyMaths]

Been meaning to learn After Effects in much more depth and, already, in just 30 minutes, you've given me so many times-saving tips; little tedious jobs I was used to doing and was just putting up with the frustration; you've made some of those things instantly easier. Thank you!

Hey Jack thank you for your great effort and making it available for free! Could you please add another timestamp of 0:00 so that we can see video chapters on the KZbin video itself as per new KZbin feature and might encourage others to skip to different chapters instead of browsing through the video description :)

[@prajwolmaharjan8479]

I literally watched every single sec of the video till the end. I had basic knowledge of premiere pro so most of the topic was easy to understand for me (already covered) but It was difinitely worth it myan. I always wanted to learn AOE so i searched here n there for the tutorial n dang this video came up to my recommendation. Thanks a lot my myan. I learned a lot of new things myan. Hope to see u with other great contents also. Keep up the good work buddy. Seriously thanks a lot buddy. :)

Thats some serious hour you have dedicated to create this gem. Without a doubt you r true hero.

[@fearlessromeo4293]

At this point, I have to say... knowledge is literally free now and still I find people who always complain that "they don't know stuff"

[@rinapup9396]

that's the point of this generation. We just have too much information and can't get foucesed on what is really important. If this video existed a couple of dacades ago, a lot of people would've watched this a lot of times, more times than now

@@rinapup9396 ong

probably because of a fig tree dilemma. I struggle to start anything because I want to learn everything, tho I don't know what or how to start.

[@bluelotusproductions7137]

Great video Jack, many thanks! One tiny note, if I may; when talking about how time is represented, you keep referring to the last set of numbers as "milliseconds", when in fact those last numbers refer to frames.

[@ZÏ̇̃]

Frames or deciseconds?

[@ParrotCoop]

10 minutes into video and I'm ready to make a comment.... I've been searching for help with After Effects and I've found a lot on KZbin, however every video I've watched the instructor taught as if everyone knew the simple things. In the first few minutes of your lesson, I learned several things that I have been trying to figure out. For example... How to play the video?... Press the space bar! All the other videos I've watched and not one person mentioned the space bar? One other thing... you have a cursor large enough to see, along with moving slower this is a game changer! Thanks Jack!

[@michaelmasukumusic307]

Hi Jack great tutorial there..love it, i cant seem to download the project files especially the one on the custom template at 2:49, can you assist, many thanks
