nice

So I see that you’re starting to link to other websites. Well, very good, as long as it’s not refraining you of posting your own wonderful tutorials right here, of course…

Keep up your amazing tutorials! We’re anticipating each and everyone of them, and embracing it upon it’s arrival!!!

This has to be one of the most pointless tutorials i’ve ever seen for AE…not just here but anywhere.

awesome technique… Thanks for sharing.

Not my favorite tutorial, and certainly not a fan of having to visit other sites to view them. Sorry to be rude, but I check your site 4x a day for new tuts

@Brian – This is not a AETUTS tutorial, hence the “From the Web” category and why you need to visit another site to view it. Having said that, it erroneously got listed in the main tutorial feed when it should not have. We are working to fix that problem.

I also did not care for this TUT, you can do better. I would rather you not post anything at all than posting this kind of material.

And to they guy who check 4X a day… it’s call an RSS feed.

You guys should not be so quick to dismiss these kinds of tutorials. Just because it doesn’t have a whizz bang final effect doesn’t mean it’s not valuable. The kind of detail you learn in this tutorial is the reason special effects in movies are as good as they are. I personally had never realized the nuances of compositing fog and had erroneously used screen or add in the past and was very happy to have learned a better way to do it.

I’m sorry a couple of you didn’t find the tutorial helpful. I wrote it as a quick tip for visual effects compositors. If you did not find it useful, do you really need to bash it and tell the site admins not to post it at all? That seems a little harsh to me.

Thanks for the great tip on how do better composting. For those that are bashing it, are you forgetting that they’re giving you all this for free? What a bunch of whiners.

Many thanks Daniel Broadway for sharing this resouceful info.I really feel bad when folks make such negative comments without thinking first.This is a website which means it is viewed all over the world by artists and compositors of all levels even those just hoping to get into this trade.

I live and work in Africa where such information is Gold.I have learnt so much from this website in so short a time that i promise one day i will return the favour.

This is to all the negative folks out there,instead of complaining,just create a website and post tutorials that you feel are useful otherwise dont infect our already healthy community with your disease.

Ask yourself,what have you done for the world in your lifetime?

Keep up the good work AETUTS and the ENVATO network!

just saw all your posts in your blog… your tips are simple but useful! nice work man! (although I think this one is very very similar to the one that is in the mark christiansen’s book)

Excellent tip. Have already been doing this for a while now but nice to see it written up in such a great and meaningful way.

Also to anyone knocking the tip it is FREE after all!!! Don’t knock something which took someone time to write up and which is given away for free.

Best wishes,

Mark

Looks nice.. thanks!

i really love that kind of quick usefull tips. That helps people who, like me, are learning the secrets of compositing.
