I've created a set of presets for After Effects that allow you to instantly add realistic shadows to any layer with controls that make it extremely easy to manipulate their appearance. You can even use a single layer as a controller for all the layers that use the presets in a comp at once AND use the position of the controller to control which direction the shadows are being cast! Plus I added a preset for adding a customizable light source that adapts to the layer it's parented to and creates a great-looking light to compliment the shadows.---------------------------------------🤝 Support more YouTube tutorials through Patreon: patreon.com/jakeinmotion🎓 Learn from me in other places:Skillshare: http://bit.ly/jbskillExplainer Camp: schoolofmotion.com/explainer-campPhotoshop + Illustrator Unleashed: schoolofmotion.com/photoshop-and-illustrator-unleashed🚶 Follow me online:Instagram: http://bit.ly/jbinstTwitter: http://bit.ly/2tOX7ui🏷️ Tag me on Instagram @jakeinmotion if you learned something from me!00:00 Intro00:55 Shadow Caster01:21 Shadow Controls02:54 Bevel Controls03:19 Long Shadows04:07 Rotation and Scale05:23 Skillshare06:55 Global Controls08:55 Use Layer As Light Source09:24 Distance Offset10:40 Light12:21 Duplicating Layers13:13 Get Shadow Caster14:13 Final Thoughts

It dynamically updates to the size of the text and is fully animatable through essential properties and the essential graphics panel.

Most motion designers don't have a good idea of who makes the third-party tools we use on a daily basis, so I hope this puts a face to the name of Battle Axe, and you come out of it realizing that we're not Adobe :).

EASILY add Squash and Stretch to your animations with this After Effects preset! Jake In Motion 2023-07-18 | Squash and Stretch is the first of the twelve principles of animation, and it's by far my favorite. It adds so much life and personality to your animations and gives everything an elastic, cartoony look and feel. I think understanding how to use it in After Effects is essential for motion designers, but it can be a little complicated to set up and work with if you're only using the scale property. That's why I set out to make a rig independent of the scale property that gives even more control over the shape of the squash and stretch. This preset will allow you to rotate the layer before the distortion, essentially rotating the contents of the layer without affecting the orientation of the squash and stretch. It also allows you to skew the layer in any direction and has some other useful controls. I hope you like it!I created the most comprehensive intro to After Effects ever.

I really believe you should know how to use the graph editor, both the Speed and Value graphs, to shape the motion you're trying to create, but sometimes that can be a very time-consuming process. Fortunately, there have been a handful of really great third-party tools developed for After Effects that help make easing keyframes much easier and more efficient. In this video, I'm going to share my top recommendations for scripts and extensions to help with easing keyframes in After Effects that I believe are worth your consideration. All of these tools will help you get the motion you're after more quickly.

I have no script writing experience but was still able to use Klutz GPT to successfully create 3 useful, completely working scripts for After Effects. This blew my mind. Even better, through the process of working with the AI, I was able to start picking up on how the javascript code was working, and actually began to understand it and make my own modifications. The AI literally taught me how to code. If that doesn't get you excited about AI, I don't know what will. I've made all three dockable script panels available to download and even converted them into Kbar scriplet versions with custom icons.

We can recreate this feeling in After Effects with just a few steps and layer on some other creative techniques to make boring stock footage look like it was shot with a cinema camera. I'll show you how to create a completely customizable faux tilt-shift effect and how to optimize it for render time. We'll also look at how to add some cinematic lens effects and distortions for a more analog feel, color grade the footage with Lumetri color, plus how to create a chromatic aberration RGB split. Then we'll learn how to use Photoshop to generate a depth map using AI in order to more accurately blur your shots, and how to use a third-party plugin called Depth Scanner to do the same thing for video.---------------------------------------🤝 Support more YouTube tutorials through Patreon: patreon.com/jakeinmotion🎓 Learn from me in other places:Skillshare: http://bit.ly/jbskillExplainer Camp: schoolofmotion.com/explainer-campPhotoshop + Illustrator Unleashed: schoolofmotion.com/photoshop-and-illustrator-unleashed🚶 Follow me online:Instagram: http://bit.ly/jbinstTwitter: http://bit.ly/2tOX7ui🏷️ Tag me on Instagram @jakeinmotion if you learned something from me!Chapters:00:00 Intro00:24 Tilt-Shift Basics04:48 Storyblocks05:31 Custom Depth Maps09:33 Cinematic Bokeh11:34 AI Depth Maps13:51 Anamorphic Aspect Ratio15:02 Color Grading17:02 Chromatic Abberation20:39 Depth Scanner23:33 More Examples26:03 Thanks for watching!

It can even be used for shading. Unfortunately, the standard noise effects in After Effects don't have much control and always have a fixed size. That's why I've come up with my own technique for generating a grain that can be resized and customized. I'm even giving away three free presets for rounding the corners of any layer, adding an effects-based inner shadow, and the chunky grain effect I teach in this tutorial.---------------------------------------🤝 Support more YouTube tutorials through Patreon: patreon.com/jakeinmotion🎓 Learn from me in other places:Skillshare: http://bit.ly/jbskillExplainer Camp: schoolofmotion.com/explainer-campPhotoshop + Illustrator Unleashed: schoolofmotion.com/photoshop-and-illustrator-unleashed🚶 Follow me online:Instagram: http://bit.ly/jbinstTwitter: http://bit.ly/2tOX7ui🏷️ Tag me on Instagram @jakeinmotion if you learned something from me!This video is sponsored by Storyblocks.Chapters00:00 Intro00:21 Creating the grain03:05 Storyblocks03:47 Adding color04:44 Animating the grain06:18 Chunky Grain preset08:18 Adding an Inner Shadow11:42 It's So Chonky14:15 Diamonds16:16 Adding more texture17:04 Sunset19:00 Wrap up
STOP using solids Free After Effects Script Jake In Motion 2022-12-27 | Download Void for free: battleaxe.co/void---------------------------------------I use Null Objects in After Effects all the time, but it's always annoyed me how they clutter up my project panel with solids. The nulls are dependent on those solid layers, so if you delete them, all instances of those solids will disappear and break your comps. The same goes for solid and adjustment layers. Wouldn't it be great if we could eliminate the solids folder altogether and create independent assets that don't rely on any other sources? Well, now you can! Introducing Void, the latest free script from Battle Axe. Void allows you to create shape layer-based assets that replace and improve the functionality of Null Objects, Solid Layers, and Adjustment Layers. You can even use Void to replace all of the nulls, solids, and adjustment layers in a specific comp or the entire project with the click of a button. We've created a compact Script UI panel that gives you all this functionality, a Kbar button with multiple functions, AND the ability to assign keyboard shortcuts to each layer type to completely integrate Void into your regular workflow, leaving solid layers in the past.---------------------------------------🤝 Support more YouTube tutorials through Patreon: patreon.com/jakeinmotion🎓 Learn from me in other places:Skillshare: http://bit.ly/jbskillExplainer Camp: schoolofmotion.com/explainer-campPhotoshop + Illustrator Unleashed: schoolofmotion.com/photoshop-and-illustrator-unleashed🚶 Follow me online:Instagram: http://bit.ly/jbinstTwitter: http://bit.ly/2tOX7ui🏷️ Tag me on Instagram @jakeinmotion if you learned something from me!Chapters00:00 Intro00:51 Void02:38 Variant03:02 Volume03:50 Replacing Solids with Voids05:19 Auto-parenting with Voids06:25 Using Voids as character controllers09:19 Zeroing the position property with Voids11:18 Shape Layers vs Solid Layers13:51 Installing the Script UI Panel14:42 Installing the Kbar button16:47 Assigning keyboard shortcuts18:56 Thanks for watching!
