Using CC Sphere and the grid effect, you can make some really cool looking globes in After Effects. I’ve used this on MANY occasions. It’s so much quicker than jumping to a 3D app. If you put a little spin on the globe and auto-orient it to the camera, you’d never tell […]
John Dickinson, as you probably know, produces amazing tutorial content for our Toolfarm Expert Series. This one is a project that wasn’t included in the training.
After Effects Backgrounds #1: Wire is "a seamlessly looping background based on the Cell Pattern effect and includes a number of adjustment layers you can use to modify the […]
Here’s a quick project on how to make a 3D egg in After Effects. I used the Sphere plug-in in Boris Continuum Complete, but the Sphere tool in Cycore FX would work just as well. I just didn’t have it installed at the moment.
Anywhoo, this project uses BCC Sphere and the regular AE plug-in […]

This is the sixth in the Toolfarm Expert Training Series: Creative Background Design with After Effects: Rose Window and it is gorgeous! John Dickinson walks you through a variety of Persian-style designs using Fractal Noise, Colorama, CC Kaleida and […]

He uses a multitude of effects built into After Effects 7 Production Bundle, but users of the Standard Bundle can also follow […]
This effect uses the Radio Waves effect, CC Radial Blur and Ramp. Change the colors to whatever you like by changing the Ramp colors and position and the background color.

Hey, look at this totally original idea I came up with! OK, so these flourishes are a bit overused nowawadays, but “how to make those growing vines” is still about the most common quesion I see on motion graphics forums. This might help many people figure this technique out.
This one is pretty simple, […]
