Thanks for that! I went as quickly as I could, but there's no way this one could've been a 10 minute video. Glad you can appreciate the information!

Brilliant. Thanks Jake for passing along your great ideas.😊

One of the most useful tutorial i've ever seen. Your dedication to let your tutorials be simple to follow, easy words and instructions, it's hard work, really hard work, but it's working 100%. This is gold for the AE community. Thank you!

This is actually very valuable. Thanks again Jake, you truly are helping our community

Jake you never fail to impress me with you knowledge of Ae. Thank you for sharing and thank you for helping people like myself become better motion designers!

I lov how I'm aware that I already know 98% of what you present BUT I always learn new things from these 2%, IN ADDITION to getting inspiration from how you present the 98% infos that I know. Always a pleasure to watch these !

I personally give After Effects classes for starters where I live and I have to say... You are a true inspiration for me. The quality of your videos are absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I feel like I'm a smarter motion designer every time I finish one of your videos. Love from Canada :)

Wow, so many super useful tips & tricks here, awesome as always Jake!

Jake, you're precious to our community. Thanks!

Jakeeeeeee your AE videos are the best!!!! They say there ain't any one size fits all approach - and this video proves that theory wrong! Ya really saved me with this vid, I know how to stretch any font nowww

There are so many nuggets of useful information in here, I love it! I'm going to be using that Essential Graphics trick a ton

It's just increadible what you did and showed us in this video! I will go back to it again, because I need grasp and understand it all! Thank you so much! 👏🙏

40 minutes, and i learn alot. thank you very much Jake!

i love your channel! deserves more for sure,thank you so much!

I had to pause the video because i realised the video i am watching is FREE!! This is amazing! Thank you very much Jake. So many things learned today!

You are freakin awesome Jake! thank you for this tutorial!

Love this! You're so inspirational and the pace of training is perfect. +1 for Expressions too.

Jake, my man! You're crushing it! You're the sole reason I'm even considering subscribing to Skillshare, just because I love your longform tutorials! (had to edit this for the autocorrect errors :-D)

Wow. SO MUCH STUFF! Thanks Jake. Definitely saved for future reference.

Love it! I've been needing to know how to fix the text with the first vertices and such! 🥰

I did smile Jack..😀 Simply amazing lesson! Such a valuable time spent in your channel, every single time following your tutorials. Fantastic work! ❤

This was great, it shows how easy things could be with knowing the right technique. There is some serious quality information and the video is only 40 minutes.

you blew my mind away in this video. thank you

Awesome as always ❤️

This faux effect just blessed my senior portfolio Thankyou for your service

I haven't used Essential Graphics before, but now I will. Holy poop! Thanks Jake!

Holly shit, I love the detailed procedure you show, I didn't think I would get to learn new things from this video but the expression writing and explanation were so good I will have so much confident later to use expression more in any other kinds of projects. I would love a Faux 3D preset tutorial too if you are kind enough. That will open up a new window for us to learn so many things at once. Thank you very much JAKE.

i'm not even that interested in making motion graphics now but somehow you got my attention, really well done with the explanation on expresssion 👍👍

So many good tips in this video!

This was great! Thanks a lot!

This is GOLD!

Very cool...but I might have to go through this tut a few (dozen) times to get it all. Not a bad thing - it was jam-packed with new concepts for me.

And your thumbnail smile is also getting stretchier 😱

18:20 I do this all the time, especially with scale animations. I like to do radial scales from a single anchor point most often. I find it easiest to accomplish by using a slightly different expression. After establishing the same offset type, I would use: thisComp.layer(thisLayer.index-1).timeRemap.valueAtTime(time-offset); You can then copy and paste to all other relevant layers. I also find that offsetting the number by a fraction of a number gives me the most pleasing results as well (ie 3.5 instead of 4 frames).

I've been doing stretchy text animation for so long... I'm only 12 minutes in and I'm MINDBLOWN! WOW (This whole time I've been doing everything manually hhahahah..)

Wow super cool 💙💜

Esto si esta muy bueno!!!

Hey Jake. I'm looking for a way for Faux 3d extrusion to "push" the type layer forward. Right now, I'm keyframing the position of the text layer to offset the extrusion, but I know it's a lumpy way to achieve the effect. Any suggestions?

Thanks for video. I have a question, my work area stopped looping playing the timeline. I don't understand why and what I could have clicked. Any tips?)

Amazing video as usual. If anyone could help me, for some reason the loopIn()+loopOut-value expression just does not work for me. I've followed every step rigorously so very confused as to what to do next...

Hi Jake, I've run into a problem with adding the opacity layers to essential graphics. Every time I do so, I get an error message: "Property is already referenced by a controller and can only be referenced once." But there is no other controller. So I'm confused. Help?

Thanks for this tutorial, Jake. I always get great value from the way you approach your projects. I have a question that is not related to this topic but to the way you edit your videos: When you scale your video (on the bottom right corner to take more space when making a clarification like at 3:00 and back to its position at 3:14) do you do that manually or have you found a way to automate that? And also, do you do those things in After Effects through a Dynamic Link from Premiere or how do you edit your videos? I'm curious because the ease is very smooth and I'm not even sure you can get those out of Premiere, but I figure you edit your videos in Premiere because editing in AE is such a pain. It's not built for that. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

When I am trying the smash like now one the text keeps increasing or decreasing in size as well? Can someone help with it? Overall a great video though!

I know easier way to convert time to frames: Frame = 1/'number of frames in the comp' So for 60 fps comp it will be "f = 1/60"

Woahhh... 12 minutes in and so!!!! 12:10

Which font you use for second Animation

💀💀☠☠I came across an issue💀💀☠☠ when I tried to link some new properties of a new comp (hide the characters) it showed up as red and everything changed together and not individually. I tried making the old properties a group, but to no avail any tips?

In the second example of changing font weights, how to you keep the width constant of the words as they scale up and down vertically. I got them changing weights and scaled them correctly at state A and then state B, but in the middle the width of the words is too wide. So then I tried to put in keyframes in between to adjust scale but it just looks bouncy/jerky and not smoothly keeping the width perfect.

@JakeInMotion

I just selected all of the paths for that word, double clicked and scaled them all down so that the left and right edges were aligned properly. You can use comp guides to help you with placement.

@@JakeInMotion Thank you very much man, as you correctly pointed out, I'm very new to expressions with zero coding background. I'm learning expressions from the very basics, so once i have a basic understanding of expressions, I'll revisit this video and watch it again.

Using your Faux 3D makes it impossible to export with transparency. The export just takes the background colour of the faux 3d in the first letter (I was making a composition with different coloured faux 3D for each letter). Do you know why that would happen? An interesting thing is Quicktime renders the background as black which makes me think it sees it as some sort of transparency but any other software renders it colored. Need to mention that I am on a Mac so I am limited to the Mac export settings. Later edit: I found a way around it ... if anyone needs it let me know. Would still be interested in hearing if others have encountered this issue and what it is they've done about it.

No, it can't be changed unless you start over. It's a very labor intensive process. You should check out a new extension called Variety, which lets you work with variable width fonts in AE. It's a much faster process.

You need to substract the value or else it will be added on top of the loopIn and loopOut results. Subtracting it leaves only the looping values, and behaves how you'd expect.

@@9orION83 Precomps are useful when you want to group elements together so they can all be affected at once. Think of a Precomp as a fancy folder - you put stuff inside and now instead of having multiple layers, you now have one single "master" layer. Making presets is pretty easy, first you add all of the effects to a layer, adjust to your liking, and then select all of them and go to the Menu Bar > Animation > Save Animation Preset. Then when you want to use the preset again, go to Effects & Presets, search for the preset and load it up.
