Around the Web After Effects Tutorial Roundup

Mar 6th in From the Web
We've been on a roll since we launched at the end of last year so for this friday we thought we'd take a short breather and showcase some of the great tutorials from around the web.

Appropriately he is starting with the basics: Intro to After Effects. We are also very happy to announce that Nick will be making a tutorial for Aetuts+!

    This is what makes you guys great and unlike other tutorial sites, you give high quality tutorials, but also let us see where we can get others, and highlight the best. And that’s why I keep coming back.

    Do you know where I can get that video of Track Greenscreen Data from Mocha? The link on the site seems to be dead.
