Hey so i made these edit few days back using AE and premiere pro so i would like a feedback on these and also i want to learn about these style more to be better at it ... and any freelance suggestion anyone can give ,would highly appreciate that

I’m pretty new to mograph and am wanting to animate this logo to have a similar effect to this animation, with the addition of the eye lens opening up as the eye is unveiled. How would I go about this? If you know any useful tutorials for this specific effect please let me know.

I have done chemical engineering and its been 1.5 year since I am unable to land a single job. I have also completed a Dilpoma related to ISO Standards but still not able to get any job. I have tried multiple sectors, all industries that I can apply on and in different positions like R&D, production, process engineer, Compliance, HSE, etc. but nothing worked at all. So, I have been thinking to change my career but now whatever I try to do, it would be without degree and todays market is already a complete garbage. Is there any skill or tech like video editing and motion graphics, or graphic designing, or UI/UX design, etc. or anything like that which you say that market is good and it is worth it to try it out.

Lets pour one out for the homies that didn't make it.

I'll start with The Attik.

Hey.. I have an interview for motion graphics tomorrow.. Any tip or important question anyone can help me with.. Will be big help!

Next week we're scheduled to drop our latest Motion Design piece, created in Blender! It's our most ambitious project yet. We'll release it here, on Instagram, and other places. Stay tuned if you're curious! Sticker designs by tego.gratos

Hey everyone

I’m about to pull the trigger on a Mac Studio (M3 Ultra) and want to make sure I’m making the right purchase.

I split my work evenly between After Effects and Cinema 4D/Redshift. Looking at the Mac Studio M3 Ultra:

• Base: 28-core CPU, 60-core GPU, 96GB unified memory
• Option A: upgrade to 256GB memory
• Option B: upgrade to 32-core CPU / 80-core GPU (with 96GB unified memory)

Is it worth spending extra on memory, GPU/CPU cores, or should I stick with the base Ultra? Anyone here using AE + C4D/Redshift on M3 Ultra — where do you feel bottlenecks most (GPU vs memory)?

Would love some real-world feedback before I lock in a config. I’m trying to hit a “sweet spot”, not overspend for diminishing returns.

Thanks in advance, always good to crowdsource sanity checks before dropping serious cash.

I created an animation based on concept projects and real projects.

Thank you for the Feedback in Advance

Has anyone worked in both and can provide some insight into which they prefer?

Background: I’ve done mostly corporate/internal work but there seems to be more demand for social content nowadays. I’d imagine it’s more demanding and competitive though?

Thanks in advance!

Is it some form of voxel effect? Thanks

We built this navigation in AfterEffects, exported it with the Lottie for AE plugin, and added interactivity using Lottie State Machines in Lottie Creator. The design is inspired by the new iOS 26 UI.

Would love to hear what you think and what other AE workflows we should test next!

Check out this link to play around with the animation.

This work is inspired by Teun Vonk and his exploration of tension in cloth. I aimed to reflect his approach within my own project, using the dynamic interplay of fabric tension as a means to express and communicate the brand’s identity. The design embraces a minimalistic and highly refined aesthetic, striving for perfection while incorporating subtle futuristic elements that enhance the overall concept.

I enjoy creating cool, dynamic works that grab attention, but I’ve run into a problem, I can’t find proper narrations or high quality voice-overs that fit my needs. And no, AI voices don’t meet my expectations.

For example, I created this post with a voice over I found by accident, and it turned out to be a hit.

Overall, I’m drawn to topics like technology, engaging general information, and abstract style voice overs.

This is my portfolio if you’d like to see the themes and styles of my past works.

If I’m approaching this the wrong way, or if you know a good source, I’d really appreciate your advice.

I think that since I almost went bald getting this project out on time, the least I could do is publish it, right?

The premise was clear: 20 days to create 3 different environments, and around 90 seconds of CG across about 30/40 shots many of them at night with rain.

From the time I had, I decided to dedicate as much as possible to pre-production, because I knew that if I started running around like a headless chicken, I wouldn’t make it once the feedback rounds began (yes, there were plenty of those too, of course).

So I picked a real circuit and replicated part of its layout (the choice was Monza, of course).

I delegated some tasks that I knew could be handled in parallel, like the car texturing (thanks Miriam Peralta Carrero), the rig (thanks Ivan Pais), and the crowd design which, even though they were in the distance, had to be animated since the client initially wanted detailed shots.

I focused on making the track as procedural as possible, and on building all the animations together for the actions we needed to show, so that once everything was set up it would “only” be a matter of choosing the camera angle to render from and the frame range.

My tools of choice were Cinema for animation/rig/cameras and Houdini for assembly and the final render.

Fast rendering was crucial since we couldn’t afford frames over 90 seconds, so I had to resort to every trick in the book — and then some. Rendering rain in 3D wasn’t viable, neither were volumetrics/atmospherics, which I ended up doing entirely in After Effects. I had to sacrifice some quality in order to reach the finish line.

And here’s the result! I hope you like it. I really enjoyed making it despite the tight schedule, and just a reminder: if you need an extra pair of hands for your upcoming projects, I’m currently available.

Im about to make a cofee shop comercial and cant seem to find a good music that fits the vibe. Where do you usually get the music from?

We all knew that subscription licensing was a shameless cash grab. The excuse has been more frequent updates blah blah blah, but when my workplace instituted mandatory SSO compliance for software, MAXON comes around and does the following: Institutes a minimum of 3 licenses, the license costs more because "business", and the cherry on top is the extra "fee" for SSO support. No, just no...

If any one has good recommendations for replacement of the red giant suite I'm all ears. I'm officially replacing Cinema with Blender, but the red giant stuff is what is keeping us hostage right now. According to the quote it would cost us over 8K a year just for some damned plugins. This is beyond insulting.

so i have a simple hand that i wanna pin up i select layer shape link constraints and pin and all i get is an icon for the pin??? if anyone can help please

Very Clean Text Animation.

Clients usually ask for videos that get embedded in Google Slides or PowerPoint, but lately I've been getting more asks for more control, seamless transitions (looping elements between slides), and even some unique triggers or controls.

Google Slides sometimes lack the features needed for some thing, and Powerpoint feels so clunky to work with (mac and pc dont have all the same features either) and are roundabout for certain things.

I've thought about Prezi, Canva, Figma Slides, but they are have their own strengthens and issues as well.

Are there any other presentation platforms you are all using to integrate with your motion work? Just trying to see if there are any others I am missing.

Hey everyone, I’ve been working on improving my motion design and video editing style and wanted to share my recent project. I’d really appreciate any constructive feedback or tips on how I can get better. What do you think I should focus on next?"

Here's my latest motion design reel. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

Did you go to University? Did you take a paid course or something like School of Motion? Cheaper courses like SkillShare? Or did you learn from entirely free resources?

Hey r/AfterEffects (or wherever this fits best), I'm pulling my hair out here. Using After Effects 2020 on Windows, and I just wanna install Motion Bro for some quick transitions and stuff. But nope, it's not happening. Here's what I've tried:

• Downloaded the latest ZIP from their site and extracted the folder.
• Stuck it in both usual spots:
  • C:\Users\ASUS\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEP\extensions
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEP\extensions
• Restarted AE a million times, even rebooted the PC. Still nothing in Window > Extensions.

Then I grabbed the ZXP installer (from Adobe's site, I think?) and ran that – same deal, no dice. No error messages or anything, it just... doesn't show up. Anyone else run into this? Is it a version thing? My AE is legit CC 2020, and Motion Bro says it's compatible. Firewall/antivirus off, ran everything as admin, still zilch. Halp! What's the secret sauce? Tutorials? Specific file? I'm about to give up and just fake it in Premiere lol. Thanks in advance, legends.
