    Asking so generally for tutorials isn’t likely to get you anywhere. Determine what specific thing you want to accomplish, and focus on trying to achieve that result. If you have specific questions along the way, we’re here to help you with those questions. If you make something and it doesn’t look like you want, then show us and we can help you to bridge the gap.

    You say that you know the basics. Good. Now you need to learn how to put those basics together and how to use your problem-solving skills.

    Thanks for the reply. So you’re saying theres no magic tips or tricks its just time spent learning right?

    It’s not just learning AE either. You have to learn the basics of design (color, texture, visual flow, etc.) and then learn the principles of animation (timing, anticipation, rhythym, etc.) and bring them together with a solid knowledge of the tools at hand.

    But yeah, no magic tutorial on how to get better. There are some excellent tutorials on Video Copilot on title design and they, like the tutorials here, will teach you a lot besides just how to do that particular title.

    Sorry, I don’t know of any off the top of my head. It wouldn’t hurt to go to a local college and look into some design classes.
