Create A Beach Themed “Water Writing” Look

the logo reveal at the end is pretty good and could be useful to some people.

Hey what’s wrong with you, the tut is hot, somebody could use realflow and a 3d app to recreate the concept with a high level of reality but this technique is after effects based only, so, great tut. :)

You know what pisses me off… Haters. Somebody made a tutorial instead of being a critic and knocking it why don’t you watch it to see what you can get out of it! Chew the meat and spit the bones! How messed up can u be knock somebodies creative work, not just knocking their creativity but knocking the fact that their trying to help beginners who don’t have any 3rd party plugins! Maybe you should think before you speak.

By the way this is a great tutorial there is a lot of useful information in here!

this is perfect for a complete noobie like myself. thanks.

try to get the people doing the tutorials to speak fluent and clear english with little or no accent. It is hard to understand them when they got a funny accent.

I agree that the final product doesn’t look all that impressive, but there are still some useful tips in this tutorial. You need to remember that the point of these tutorial is to teach the viewer HOW to do something, and not just give the viewer something they can duplicate and put in their demo reel…which happens way too often with Kramer’s stuff.

Considering the quality of tutorials on aetuts, this one falls way behind the rest. Very disappointing.

Amazing Heba

I haven’t thought that you’ll producing an ae tuts on English ..!

Bravo Heba and KEEP UP the good work

Wish you luck

I wish to echo that, because a tutorial explains techniques that: (1) some viewers regard as basic; (2) employs plugins & effects with which some viewers are already familiar; and/or (3) produces results that some viewers believe to be visually unimpressive or aesthetically outdated by no means qualifies the tutorial as unhelpful.

As these tutorials are purposed to help After Effects users situated across a broad spectrum of exprience levels and skillsets, it strikes me as not only presumptuous and myopic to levy blanket criticism at tutorials aimed at beginners, but also deeply inconsistent with the spirit of a community whose most compelling characteristic, as John Dickerson and other prominent online educators have noted, is the collective generosity of its members with respect to sharing knowledge and the professional maturity that such generosity reflects.

Furthermore, the AE community is global. That English language tutorials inarguably reach the broadest crosssection of users fails to substantiate comments that appear to insist on restricting publication to those presenters whose spoken accents fall within some minimal degree of variation from the norms of inflection and pronunciation that happen to be most intelligible to the commenter. A requirement, like the one adopted by this site, that tutorials must be presented in English makes practical sense. But requirements that the presenter have native/first-language facility with English–or that she must speak with, say, a Brooklyn accent, a Welsh accent, or a Hawaiian pidgin accent–are equally ridiculous.

To the tutorial author: thank you for the wonderful lesson. I hope to see more content from you in the near future.

Best,
James
