what did you figure out … im running into an issue with too many polygons… what should i do?

[Nick Ito]

ive found trapcodes plugins are great

[Nick Ito]

so i had some luck with the windows it was a straight forward shot not much movement so that was fairly easy.

i will use a combination of rotoscoping and motion tracking for shots where subject is in front of picture frame ( if i have the time )

i will post up the video when i am done to show what i did.

when a class is adobe certified is it the equivalent to say a microsoft certification for pc techs?

i have been following the turorials here and find them very helpful i even copped a year long subscription to lynda.com for AE
i grasp many of the tools now and am trying to better understand the capabilities of the effects.

one thing i am trying to sharpen up on is the camera… i get the basics but at points i lose control of the camera and cant quite figure out what i did wrong.

ill check into some of those schools.
thanks for your help

[Nick Ito]

that might be a good alternative a nightclass if they offer it.
perhaps something at pierce college
(local city college)

in conclusion on the punctuation and grammar thing, thanks for the apology, it did seem more like a dis than any type of constructive criticism.
dont think i am goin to go the route of being all perfect spelling and all that on this board… i dont feel it calls for it least not at this point.
reguardless its water under the bridge

[Nick Ito]

thanks Aharon
thats good info
and thanks for the support.

i defenitely know that this is not one of my better qualities i do try to improve on that.
sometimes ill write my uncle and spell you = u even throw in a LOL assuming he knows what that means.

hahaha

its the complete butchering of the written word and i need to know when to check it.

this board had been very helpful to me on many occasions and i figured id run into some helpful advice to this conflict i have.
i really want to advance my knowledge and figured even if i went to some filmschool or something of the sort, id still be visiting this site trying to find answers to problems i would be running into
(only now paying 30k a year for these problems)

my conflict is i have a job in dvd authoring i make ok money, but i feel i have challenged myself as much as i can there creativley i want to be involved in projects that i can be proud of.

anyway its somewhat hard to explain.
but i gave it my best shot.

i have found some passion in this work and hope at some point to make some noise in the motion graphics scene.

til then ill be watching your tutorials aharon.
thanks for all the help

its for sure not my strong suit.
but then again… this is just a forum to get information and exchange ideas.
not an english class.

ill keep it mind though when submitting resumes, not to use my internet grammar.

[Nick Ito]

what a jerk…
i saw it after i posted the misspelled word.
i figured people would be able to figure what i meant.

and quit acting like your S*%t dont stink
you never misspelled a word before?

even if you havent that just makes you a know it all.
( that guy who sits in front of the class who cant wait to belittle people who say something inaccurate)

i hate those guys.

dont be that guy!

that guy is a JERK

[Nick Ito]

ill give it a shot have you done this before?

can you do it straight out of dvd studio pro?

[Nick Ito]

ahh ok. awesome.
thanks for the quick response fellas
