[@neoexplains]

Thanks for walking through this because I was super confused how it works after the update! But this is definitely a good change!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Awesome to hear! Hey Jack told me you made some absolutely incredible visuals for the Swiss video. Can't wait to see those! And man, we need to set up a call and talk map animations. 😎

[@jbInsights]

Great Work Boone! ❤❤

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thank you! 😄

[@lauramcgann4995]

congrats on the Adobe collaboration - so well deserved!!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Laura! 😎

[@bananaphone2275]

Thank you! I just came back to after effects after a year break and was utterly confused with the missing mattes. You're the first person I've seen explain this. Much appreciated.

[@nellomaps]

Congrats on your cooperation with Adobe!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thanks! It was crazy cool.

[@JaunRaza]

this s a game changer!!! wooo! thanks so much for this tutorial

[@bubanga]

I heard it now but this means you'll live in our presets forever! Thank you @Adobe, keep this guy happy.

[@vertigo1055]

First, congrats on being able to work for Adobe to make stuff for them. Second, as someone that suffers from a condition that effects my memory this makes things SO MUCH simpler and easier to remember without having to thumb through a notebook looking for the steps to make these types of effects. I've already updated to the latest version but haven't had anything come my way that requires this yet but I am now just interested in playing with it. Yep, I think I could actually enjoy and have some fun just messing about in After Effects instead of banging my head on a wall trying to remember what should be simple steps. Cheers! Stay Healthy and Stay Sane!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

It's true, this new workflow is super easy and intuitive. Thanks for the nice comment!

[@demorbe-official]

Man thanks for putting this up. I love the value that you provide. And how you make things easy to understand I hope to see you reach greater heights.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thank you so much! Super happy to hear that.

[@doodle2174]

Hey thanks for explaining this! Was working on one of my classes finals and was confused as to where all the alpha and luminance maps went. This video was a huge save, thanks!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Awesome! What is your final about?

[@tawnyt1054]

Thank god for you, my dude. I went through a plethora of videos who had already made projects to try and explain and it only made it more confusing. Thanks for starting from scratch and telling us exactly how to apply mattes. Much appreciated.

[@VincenzoDelafonte]

I'm an Iranian political refugee who just arrived in Germany and trying to learn after effects with your videos and building a new life here. I'm glad i found you.

[@TheMarketExit]

I love this -- I've struggled so much with the Set Matte effect. Congrats on the presets gig! Can't wait to hear more about them in your video with... I'm guessing Jake In Motion? It's insane how much I've learned from the two of you -- and how much fun I've had doing it.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Sayy whaaaaaat... Thanks for the kind words! I'm always happy to hear that I'm not the only one who struggles with Set Matte. For real, my brain shuts down immediately after I apply the effect.

[@JakeInMotion]

Love it! This is how track mattes should've worked all along. I think Set Matte will still have uses with specific effect stacks where you want to shape the layer's alpha channel based on itself. But yes, it's far less needed now. Also, Tint = quick desaturate.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Jake! I totally agree. It's so very intuitive now. Perhaps one day I will embrace the Set Matte effect. And yes, how could I forget Tint! Thank you so much for that. 🙏🔥

[@alexfreedomroad]

Jake! You're here!!!! It's like meeting a cool friend in a party LOL

[@fernandabravo4866]

Thank you for this tutorial!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

You are so welcome!

[@eugenepetersondesign7022]

Hi Boone! Writing at your request. I happened to use the Set Matte effect quite a bit in the past. Seemed relatively easy to produce simple effects with 2-3 objects, more complex rigs required more focus and trial/error. Also, before 2023, there was no other way to achieve this type of effect. Clearly the 2023 Track Matte Layers is a dramatic improvement! Appreciate you sharing this!

[@command0z]

Thanks! This is great. Happy holidays!

[@wm_films]

Man, just saved my day! Thank very much!!

[@DarrellPorter1]

As someone new to AE, I'd have to say this is one of the best tutorials I've seen that will help me immediately. Subscribed!

[@RiceNoodlestw]

a big thanks for the free vector maps. i was on the berg of making my own. saved me so much time.

[@dimencosimulatedreality6904]

Great tutorial. many thanks!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

You're welcome!

[@ThePresentPast_]

Congrats on the adobe opportunity!

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thanks, Jochem. Yeah I got some map markers in there. :)

@@BooneLovesVideo can't wait 🙌

[@AndiBlair1492]

Brilliant. Thank you for this!! #thumbsup

[@Purcellproductionsllc]

Great job, helps immensely

[@samduss4193]

great quality and great explanation :) thanks :)

[@aliather]

Thanks man!! you saved my time!!

[@blastwiremedia3672]

Thank you for this great tut... I use the set matte effect with puzzle matte render passes from 3D appplications... it is really handy in this situation... and probably the only instance someone would need to use it...

[@LeandreOnYt]

thank you for the tutorial!

[@gdPlutonium]

Thank you! That helped sooo much

[@НовыеФильмы-ю4ы]

Thanks so much! Subscribed.

[@saltytalin]

Honestly was shocked at this change and it will take some getting used to. Hated it at first but after watching this I understand how much better it is for workflow!!

[@bonsai5753]

We love Boone so much :)))

[@andywakeman9806]

This is awesome!!!!!

[@luisgonzalez8415]

This is cool, but what about delivering projects to studios or designers that are not updated to 2023?

[@Thekohistani]

bro when u thank your patrons, add cool animations that u have created , in the background... it will be great motivation for us in the beginning of the video...

[@BooneLovesVideo]

😎But hey, a blurry visual of me putting on my glasses is still pretty entertaining.

[@Thekohistani]

@@BooneLovesVideo WELL Im a huge fan so thats fine too.

[@danilo352]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS! I have experience in Photoshop and have always been a bit annoyed that you can’t (couldn’t) do something like a clipping mask in AE. This is awesome!!! Thank you a million for sharing 🙌🏼

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Yes indeed, it's pretty fantastic! Thanks for the nice comment.

[@oxygeneinfo]

congrats bro

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Thanks!

[@Vsjxnndhxk]

They had to change something that fucking works

[@joshtye2673]

I've had to heavily rely on Set Matte effect in my Geolayers workflow so it's amazing that I can finally ditch it. It never really worked how I wanted it to work and using multiple set mattes always felt like a bit of a hack.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

For me it's just super complicated to understand what it's actually doing. I'm sure it's still handy in certain cases.

[@matteeah]

RIP Set Matte

[@mapograph]

This is great. I still have a problem with track mattes when i add borders to the ai layer via right click + layer styles.

[@sammyha5183]

hiya thank you for the video do you know why when i do those steps it makes the 'flag' in this example black and white and doesn't allow colour?

[@Fluffy_Song]

Not working for me Luma Matte :(

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Try Alpha matte!

[@sleepybendyboy2394]

note to self: 1:06

[@SayedulAbrarOfficial]

I have updated my after effects. but it's not working

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Which version?

[@SayedulAbrarOfficial]

@@BooneLovesVideo V 23

[@combone471]

3d how do i do it?

[@petersolomon5227]

Sorry Boone, this isn't clear at all. I fail to understand why Adobe does not produce their own tutorials on new application features.

[@l4chl4n47]

I was in my vfx class doing a tutorial from 2016 and I was wondering why everyone was able to select luma matte in the track matte tab except me. Haha pathetic classmates! you don’t even realise I’m an update ahead of you! your 4 weeks after effects skills pale in comparison to my also 4 weeks of after effects skills except I used the new track matte system ONCE!

[@mr.amendo3709]

i hated this format is there any way to go back to the old one?

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Yeah I'm guessing just use the older versions of After Effects.

[@hangsomeman491]

Hi Boone, I especially love your videos, they have been very helpful to me. But as Chinese, every inch of land is very important and serious to us, even if Taiwan is not under the management of the Chinese Communist Party now, it should still appear in the map of China. Sorry for saying something unrelated to the matte.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Super happy to hear that my tutorials have been helpful! So as you can see in the video, I downloaded this map from FreeVectorMaps. I have nothing to do with drawing out the borders or worrying about which land needs to be included in the map. You should contact FreeVectorMaps if you're concerned with that. This tutorial is about teaching animation and design techniques.

[@Journal_Haris]

I'm glad we can agree on the anti set matte movement ✊

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Oh hell yeah my brother. 🙌

[@mudassirjabbar4]

hi sir, Thanks a lot for this video and you've really made my learning super easy, one question that i would like to ask is that why you brought ai files as it is i mean you could have saved png files from ai and then bring it in ae.. can you please clear my query..TIA

[@pustulaingrassifflet4350]

thanks for the video, how on earth did Adobe wait 2023 to do that !? they are disconnected from users or what ?? :)

[@ABMSTUDY]

Love from India 🇮🇳

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Love you India!

[@giraffeapproved]

Thanks for this! Super helpful.

[@Hiphopandfriends]

I hate the change…. it made flow complicated. If it’s not broke why fix it

[@sergeyzhabskiy7073]

Thank you. This tutorial is great and very helpful!!!

[@IbrahimKotaesh]

Keep learning from you. Thanks Boone ❤️

[@BooneLovesVideo]

😎 Happy to hear that! Thanks for the nice comment.

[@TheTrackRecord]

Wow, that’s so useful. I’ve been wishing for ages there was a set matte effect that worked as expected.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

It really is so great, especially for GEOlayers users.

[@demorbe-official]

If possible could you please a tutorial about premiere pro. How to do the same

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Not sure how to do this in Premiere.

[@robmorissette7586]

Breaks if any layers have 3d enabled.

[@tyranakok]

Great video. Instead of going to Hue Sat to take out color, just drop a tint effect on it. Nothing to tweak.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

Ah yes of course! I always forget about this beauty.

[@jegelskerunited]

When I follow these steps it dosent do the same, it just make the layer I want to track it on disappere?

[@BooneLovesVideo]

What version of After Effects are you using?

[@jegelskerunited]

@@BooneLovesVideo 24.2.1

[@romankovalov5651]

Sorry but i got stressed about your notification sound. it's little bit annoying.

[@BooneLovesVideo]

My grandpa used to get stressed and annoyed while fighting in world war 2.

[@KREATION-f5t]

That was a big help, thanks!

[@rejkk]

Thank you so much, saved me at work today as I needed to quickly render something with track matte and updated to 2023 only yesterday.
