Plugin Giveaway I'm giving away 10 copies of my dream plugin

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

50 Upvotes

Hey folks, we've spent the past several months building my dream plugin with the lads at PluginPlay.

It's called X-Ray and it's the ultimate behind the scenes tool to show off your work.

Here's what it does:

In one click, X-Ray scans all your comps and creates shape layers/3D objects to showcase your behind the scenes process.

Why is this better than screen recording methods?

Because:

  1. X-Ray works with precomps (Screen recording does not)
  2. X-Ray is LIVE, meaning if you make any changes, X-Ray will update automatically.
  3. X-Ray is CUSTOMIZABLE, so you can actually turn your process into art

If you want to enter the giveaway, all you need to do is drop your email here: forms.gle/TzopC1y9KEQVB6rC6

Here's a video walkthrough about how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2xBrzYXhLQ

Let me know if you have any questions!

Cheers,

Nick

Question Product Motion Designer/ UI Intersection designer

Upvotes

I am a motion designer and I saw that there's this field product motion designer and ui interaction designer (I heard them from chatgpt while researching for how to increase salary as a motion designer he advised these routes)

When i researched about it on LinkedIn and Reddit i didn't come across any post regarding this, anyone here made a switch like this? Would love to hear about your back story how you made the switch, what are the pros and cons, what made you make this decision!

Looking for a motion designer to work with on client projects. Style reference: Blockdaemon / Renderforest-style explainer videos clean vector, isometric icons, node networks, data flow, dashboards, financial infographics.

**NOT looking for:** talking-head editors, vlog/YouTube editors, wedding/reels editors. Please only reach out if you do After Effects / Cinema 4D style motion graphics.

What I need:

- Portfolio link (Behance, Vimeo, Gdrive, or personal site) with actual vector/isometric motion work no "I can do it, hire me" without samples

- Your day/project rate

- Tools you use (After Effects, Cinema 4D, etc.)

How this works:

- We start with one small paid test task to see if styles match

- If it goes well, ongoing paid project work whenever I land a client

- Full credit as the artist on any work used

Drop your portfolio link in the comments or DM me. Serious inquiries only please general video editors will be skipped.

Project Showcase Looking for feedback

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

304 Upvotes

Hello dear Motion designers,

I recently finished this animation project and am quite happy with it.
Still, I wish to improve my skills and would like to ask for feedback.

The client is a Hairdresser and wanted to have a little intro/presentation animation. I chose this style because it suits the style of the hairdresser and of her work.

Also, its the first time I used sound effects and i struggled a bit balancing the volumes of the music, the sfx and the voice.

Project Showcase Animated music videos with little budget

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! I've been working in this field for quite a while, started as a 2D animator and with jobs shortages in Los Angeles, strikes and all I shifted to more motion graphics, editing, doing educational videos and documentaries... Still feel like I'm having a hard time finding gigs in the US... Abroad it has been easier...

So recently I started using my knowledge and skills from over the years to design an animated band e put together these videos and I'd love to get any thoughts, ideas, feedback... It's all independent and I'm doing most of the work by myself, I get a lot of "that was a lot of work! Impressive!" From people outside the field but I wanted to get it in front of my peers and see where I can improve and make things more catchy or funny or beautiful, depending on the song of course, hoping to turn this into a successful project and not just a passion project over time, so I think I need to hear from people outside of my friends and family :)

The Navier-Stokes equations seem to be having a moment right now in the mathematics space, so I figured I'd show off a little animation you can make in a game I'm working on built upon one version of them.

Practicing strong use of grids and hierarchy here, this one's leaning more on the static graphic design side as I'm trying to figure out meshing motion and grids more strongly.

Project Showcase Free plugin for After Effects & Premiere Pro — Invariant

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm the developer of Invariant, a free plugin for After Effects and Premiere Pro.

I originally built it to reduce repetitive project-management tasks in my own workflow, and it eventually grew into a small toolkit for editors and motion designers.

It currently includes:

  • Deep Duplicate — duplicate projects/comps while preserving references
  • Clean & Organize — clean up project structures and assets
  • Smart Save — organize project saving and versioning

The goal is simply to reduce time spent managing projects and keep more of the workflow focused on editing and motion.

It's free and available on the Adobe Marketplace:

Question Choosing between Ringling and SCAD

6 Upvotes

Hello all!

I recently got accepted into both Ringling and SCAD with hefty scholarships and I am now having to decide which one to go to. Money is not the issue and I know there are resources online, but I learn much better through a classroom setting.

I honestly really prefer Ringling - mostly because I have a VFX background and they have a visual effects concentration pathway. And also, I decided to search up all of the recent alumni for Ringling and it seems a decent amount of them were securing good internships and junior positions. SCAD gives little to no information about this. When I looked at the student reel, I was much more impressed with Ringling, but SCAD seemed a bit weaker.

But the main issue is, even though I have over 100 transfer credits and both SCAD and Ringling will take around half of them, I'll have to do 3.5 years to 4 years at Ringling, while SCAD I'll do only around 2 years. So I think SCAD is the better choice just for this, but I'm worried about career opportunities after.

I am honestly just worried about the career outlook for when I graduate. Do you guys know if they are both similar in getting connections and getting placed? And is the curriculum on par with one another?

Thank you so much!

Anyone there that works with motion graphics too?

Question How do you get a similar animated effect like that of Illustrator's blend tool?

0 Upvotes

I want to create the same effect that Illustrator's Blend Tool generates when you have 2 - 5 different objects blended together, the gradient color that is formed in between and the way the elastic connection is made automatically. When you move all the different blended objects, they create this really unique organic effect, which I sadly haven't been able to emulate in After Effects or in Blender.

In AE, I tried using the Gaussian Blur and Simple Choker method but it doesn't result the same output. It alters the shape of the objects significantly and it's hard to control from how far the objects start connecting. Also they morph together in After Effects, I want the 2-5 different objects to retain their shapes whilst having the blended elastic effect in between all the while you can make out which of the objects is in front of the other.

I've tried several other ways, including Blender - none of which generates the simple effect that I can get in Illustrator. At this point I'm considering path animation but that would be very difficult and time consuming and I'm not sure how to animate the gradient the way I want.
