Tool Talk Ep. 1 \\ Battle Axe

[@JakeInMotion]

Let's hear it for Adam and Ashley! Who do you want to hear from next?

[@CreativePunk5555]

Andrew Kramer! 😎

[@Bobby.Donald]

Appreciate yall making these I always listen to them, nice to hear from the core team. I 2nd the Kramer thing if you can manage it!

[@AtaurRaziq]

This was endearing, nice one Jake. A video with the team at Plugin Everything, making gamechangers like Deep Glow, how Repeater is FREEEE as well as Chromatic Aberration! Perhaps you could even bag Mr Welcome to Another Very Exciting Tutorial! and their plugins....

[@JoshFryer]

This video was awesome and welcomed! Best promos in the AE game, for sure, and tools that have saved me hundreds, if not thousands, of hours!!! Maybe an album next? (If that hasn't been done already?)

🖤

[@Maxnuen04]

Fun show and great insight 🎉🎉🎉❤

[@yuvrajsingh-gm6zk]

Really? Its just enough to the staff of 3 to make this amazing products? 😅

[@azizal157]

overlod cant push object from AI to AE and Battle Axe don't have a solution for that

[@JakeInMotion]

It sounds like you might need some help with that issue, and the best way to get support is through our discord server. But you'll likely find the answer to why a particular object isn't transferring properly in the troubleshooting section of Overlord's help page: help.battleaxe.co/overlord/troubleshooting.html#shapes-are-not-transferring

This is such a fantastic behind the scenes, so great to meet the lovely people behind one of the best companies in motion design! I’ve been curious about BattleAxe since it first started because it was a company with such a great personality, can’t wait to see what you do next. Thanks for doing this Jake! As for who next, it’s kind of a cop out answer but I’m really interested to be surprised - you’ve got a great sense for where the industry is at, so I’m keen for whoever you end up choosing!

[@inventsable]

Would love to hear from people like Zack Lovatt, Justin Taylor, Remco Janssen, Carlos Canto (#1 guru for Illustrator scripting), Dan Ebberts, Tomas Sinkunas, Davide Barranca

[@hodeiensunza]

Interviewing Sander Van Dijk would be great, wouldn't it?

[@ronnykhalil]

Love you all

[@jakehancock3645]

@jakeInmotion When I use Overlord to bring AI to AE my colors are coming in completely wrong. Different codes, different RGB Values. why? is there anyway to correct this?

[@JakeInMotion]

The two most likely causes are 1) Your Illustrator document is set to CMYK instead of RGB, or 2) The Color Profile you're using to display. Check this page for color accuracy information: help.battleaxe.co/overlord/color-accuracy

[@stillremain.artwork]

Battleaxe is amazing in every way, I really look up to them, thank you Jake for this amazing interview, I'd love to hear from Flow creator and Motion 4, those Plugins/Extensions changed my workflow enormously, and it would be EXTREMELY amazing to bring Andrew Kramer here, that would be the dream, all mographers owe him so much saved time

[@rickardbengtsson]

This is a fun show format! Look forward to seeing more AE wizards

[@GavStrange]

Awesome stuff - Love Battle Axe!

[@matthewsienzant8035]

Absolutely love seeing Adam and Ashley just click in such a heartwarming way!

[@quietdime]

That initial *POP* sound in the audio is fucking painful--please remove that in the next episode.

[@JakeInMotion]

Are you talking about the music I chose?

[@quietdime]

@@JakeInMotion I’d have to listen to it again over my work headphones in case it was some kind of loading error. Right at the very front of video there was a “bang” or ballon pop sound that was incredibly loud. I think it was part of the song. I’ll report back.

[@JakeInMotion]

Yeah let me know. The song is the only thing playing at the beginning and it's just a drum fill to start it out.

[@TheYahn]

It sounds pretty leveled out with his voice from my end here.
