Ayatoweb.com
I’m not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but, as I am new to this whole after effects world, but have been a fan of what it can do for many years, i was trying to create great 2-d and 3-d titles. so when i stumbled upon ayatoweb.com i was estatic. but my question is this…for those of you who have used ayatoweb’s tutorials, why are there no keyframe settings in the timeline window shots? he shows you where the keyframes are but not what the settings are. am i missing something? everyone, or at least a bunch of people, rave about ayatoweb’s great title tutorials, but i don’t see the point of them if he doesn’t give you those settings. anyone?
Thanks.

sorry I don’t have an answer for you as far as keyframes. I’ve usually played with them till I found a setting that I like.
There yave been many many many threads here about ayato’s tutorials you might want to search for “ayatoweb” and see what turns up.
I had a question and emailed him once and he replied back within 24 hours. (mind you he’s japanese and his
english is very basic. but he was able to convey the information that I needed.)hope that helps ya in some way

I know it can be annoying, but it does actually help. The artistic capabilities of AE don’t really depend on your mathematical abilities, even though almost every AE plugin requires numerical input. Ayato’s tutorials show you which parameters he changed and give you a quicktime at each stage to show you what resulted from those changes. It’s then up to you to play around with the settings and reverse engineer the outcome. In doing this you learn what those parameters actually do and how they interact with each other.
If you do these tutorials, your end result probably won’t be identical to Ayato’s, but you should have picked up enough to see how you can use the same plugins to do other interesting things.

I don’t think his intent is to spell everything out for you. His tutorials are not beginner level After Effects projects.
I get so much out of his website because it forces me to experiment and pull out the manuals to read about some of the techniques he uses.

Exactly, don’t hand it to me. Make me work for it so I learn it! These are outstanding…
