    Get an Unmultiply effect such as Knoll Unmult or XMult and apply it to your layer in AE after the lensflare.

    Well, you’d have to combine techniques and particles aren’t ideal for this type of stuff. I’d only use them to create the spray cone, but not the paint effect itself. This one can be created much easier and with more control by simply using another comp and animating e.g. the Write-On effect.

    [J Hofius] “Title and action safe areas were made as a safeguard against old, innaccurate monitors. Technology advances, monitors become more accurate. One result is the network identifying bugs in the lower right of most broadcast shows. A second example is animated pop-ups pushing their way onto the screen during one show to advertise another show.

    Can these shifts in what is acceptable for broadcast (Especially in Hi-Def) open up the edge of the canvas for design? Could this mean we’ll no longer need to design for the center of the screen?”

    Who told you this little fairytale? Even LCD’s have non-usable areas of up to 5% (the cheaper the set, the larger the margin), the average is something like 1-3%. Granted, it’s much better than old tubes, but it’s still with us and it will be so for quite a while. Sorry, any announcements about the death of safe areas are untrue and premature. They may become smaller, but they won’t disappear.

    You can do this using XPresso, I believe. You’d have to cycle thru the points of your spline using an iteratator and multiply their position values with the audio amplitude. Can’t picture it off the top off my head, but should be doable.

    Looks like it does not output to any other program other than 3DS MAX (via the plugin). I guess you’d have to dig into the SDK and write your own importer for C4D if you wanted to use it.

    Oh oh… Latest version of QT? Get rid of it! Avid CoDecs somehow don’t work properly with QT 7, install 6.5 instead.

    6.5 won’t handle most HD CoDecs, not even HDV. You have to convert the bits you wanna use in AE to another format.

    Sure you can write files to disc using scripts. Check AEnhancers.com for some inspiration.

    Nope, no way. What I have learned thru my own experiences in doing the voiceovers for my tutorials is that you need a good equalizer and a noise gate and neither of what little AE has to offer in ways of audio tools will do it for you. Do a search, there are many free wave editors around which will work better than anything you could hope to accomplish in AE. Also consider e.g. the 30 day trial of Audition.
