    Illustrator is the only Adobe software I’ve never had a desire to learn. Was she cute at least? 😉

    Duke –

    Missing out on Illustrator is missing out on some really creative capabilities for After Effects. Here’s one example of animating illustrator mask paths:

    Needless to say, Illustrator has a learning curve, but getting up to speed with vector creation in Illustrator isn’t that steep a curve.

    Illustrator 88 was the first mac program I ever learned. Using the rest of the suite without it would hobble me…

    The Zombie Chick WAS ugly and the little boy on the new premiere splash screen is wearing a cape. Very cool.

    Kind regards,

    Then there was that red-head with the snake…ugh! I think that was either audition or speedgrade 2014

    My favorite of all time is the After Effects 2015.02 with the pyramid/tron art…made me look up the artist.

    The redhead with the snake (Speedgrade, btw) was beautiful, I thought. Much better than the current folded swath of fabric effect with garish colors.

    In case you haven’t noticed, the pyramid picture on After Effects is gone now, if you update.

    As for Illustrator, I’m 61, NOT in the business at all, had my fling with After Effects and Video Copilot tutorials, don’t have the ambition anymore. I’ll watch that video link, maybe that will inspire me, but at this point I’m happy just shooting and color correcting/grading footage of myself. The reason for that is, I was always the guy with the camera so I was always behind it. Never had good footage of myself, and I got tired of having to look in a mirror to see an HD version of myself 😉

    I do appreciate, however, all of you guys encouraging me to continue my self-education. Cheers!
