Ok i watched Gyro and Blood, Gyro is definitly a maltannon Tutorial!
He has his own style and you see it when he use his expression.
I saw many Blood writing tutorials. But this one is awesome.
Really great ideas to realize the work.
And i try to use Particular like you said:”Fire with a cannon to a fly!”
The next one i will watch is RetroTerminal… the result is damn great ;)
Guys its definitly worth, 7 Hours of training.
I love it.

Hi Maltaannon,
just watched MILG5 thru the Weekend – and I gotta say its a no brainer if you are just a little interested in motiondesign and especially expressions – compliment!
Besides the unique Techniques very well described you showed me how to get really some great timesavings inside AE – and we all know time is money.
But I wonder that in the Promo all the bonuscontent wasn´t described. I mean besides the Lightwraper plugin (damn, I already bought it before!) you´ll get a bunch of other very usefull plugins and presets, you say no word about it – why?
Only thing to “critizise” – It was to much content to learn in a weekend, so I´ll have to watch some parts again :) This is definitly the most MILG I got for my money!
Keep it rolling Maltaannon!

Are any outside plugins required for the tutorials on MILG5? I’m always looking for more and better AE tutorials but don’t want to have to buy particular or anything else to complete them.

The DVD is absolutely amazing Maltaannon, I’ve watched it through twice, and still there is alot of info I haven’t processed. It is worth every penny, I can already feel my workflow getting better, and that I plan ahead more, giving me time to make it look great, without having to spend more then half of my production time tweaking setting and re-arranging keyframes. Thanks :D

dimitris -Its already being pirated.(since the 7th) This volume only lasted a couple days. I highly recommend that you buy it though. Its so good you’ll feel bad if you didn’t.
Sean -You need some trapcode plug-ins for some of them, but others don’t require any.

I am intermediate level at After Effects and some of these tutorials are just too hard to follow with Maltaannon . I have to constantly pause and listen to just get simple expressions down correctly and in the butterflyman tutorial, cannot accomplish it.
Maltaannon jumps topics so quickly that it is very hard to follow. Too technical and not enough on topic.
I visit Maltaannon site regularly but I must say, his rhythm is different in this product then on his own site. I can follow all his tutorials on his site and is the reason I bought this product. I am unhappy with the product because it has given me nothing but headaches.
Sorry Maltaannon, I know you have many followers but I must say that I felt like I got burned out of my money. This was my X-Mas present too. :(
I only recommend this product to ADVANCED users who probably already know how to do all this already.
Maltaannon
22. Dec, 2008
Hey Blax, sorry you feel that way. Do not hasitate and please contact me by email or skype (contact details are included in the ReadMe.pdf with the download). I will be more than happy to help you out with the tutorials.

Blax you must be too exaggerating I think.
Yes MILG5 is more difficult than previous MILG series.But it’s not all that hard.How many times we have been fooled by kind of the entitled ADVANCED tutorials of Lynda.com or Total Training, just because they’re too simple. You may not understand it now but later on when you get to another level you will feel how powerful and helpful this traing kit can offer you.
I myself has been inspired by many expression used in MIG5 and really see so much potential in it.
I think I’ll spend much more time on it to get most out of it.
And really I hope this DVD will sell well and Maltaannon will give up more training kit.
Best wishes a few days before X-Mas Day.

22. Dec, 2008
Don’t get me wrong. I have been around this blog and Maltaannon tutorials on this site have raised my level. He still remains one of the top AE teachers/innovators out there.
I don’t think I was fooled at all. I do feel stupid after watching these tutorials and that is not a good feeling. VEry frustrating when it takes 3 days (not exaggerating) to get through a 40 minute tutorial.
The good thing is, even though I cannot follow SOME of these tutorials, MILG5 has taught me new things which I am grateful for.
And Maltaannon, thank you for your response. I didn’t mean to sound harsh in my first reply, I just was expecting a jab but got an uppercut instead.
I will figure it out I am sure, but it is going to take more time that previously thought.

Hi Blax,
it took me two years before i was ready to tell myself “i can HANDLE after effects” i was not using it on a regular basis and the first year was pain in the ass and i was only learning from books, yeah, paper books. At these days Online Tutorials did not exist. Today i work as an Digital Artist and i´m proud that i did not let go off whenever it got complicated and frustrating.
Today, slower tutorials are pain in the ass for me.
Most important is to get the basics. Try the basic training series at videocopilot.net for example. This should be your first place and i swear you will understand following advanced tutorials much better.
Maltaannon is a great guy and he spent a LOT of time creating MILG and its worth every cent BEACAUSE before that he spent a lot of time creating FREE amazing Tutorials for us folks.
think about it.
cheers,
Thomas

23. Dec, 2008
Thanks Thomas.
As I mentioned before, I am an intermediate user of AE. I am very comfortable with the software. I never have gotten stuck on any of Maltaannon tutorials before MILG5.
I am more advance than Video Copilots basic tutorials. In fact, I never get stuck on any of AK’s tutorials either.tutorials.
Now that you brought it up, I hope it does not deter beginners of AE. There is a lot of good info in MILG5, but as stated before, it has a learning curve.
Maltaannon
23. Dec, 2008
Thanks guys for the kind words. I would like to point out that recording free tutorials is a bit different than a commercial product. I had to stay more on topic, and while having in mind that I plan to do 10 tutorials for MILG5 I had to keep than as short as possible without going much into details – I just assumed that you already know your stuff about AE – at least from previous MILG series.
More over… it took me over 5 months to put this release together not only because it’s very hard work, but I also wanted to do my best to provide you with much better tutorials then the ones available on my site for free. If I wouldn’t do that I’d feel like I’d be stealing from you. Thats why it took so long… finding the right topic, finding the best techniques, and make it look really good.
Aside of that – remember that there are project files included with the download so whenever you need to dive in deep you can always open up the project file and watch the tutorial while surfing through the project.
Above all, if you think about it, I bet you’ll come to a conclusion that if you get disappointed at all, it’s better to be disappointed because the content was to hard, rather than to easy. That way you can always go back to it whenever you like and it will still have great value for you. If the training would be to easy… well… then you could say that you’ve burned your money.
I’m sure that when you think about it you’ll come to a conclusion that it was a good investment. I certainly hope so.
Wish you guys all the best, merry xmass and a happy new year!

Really great dude! Fantastic DVD, I really like it and would recommend it to really everyone!
My favourite ones are “RetroTerminal” and “SpyCam” because of the really cool expressions used.
And do you know what? I wouldn’t have done much differently :D:D

Just ignore it. It’s just a warning, to make sure you don’t overkill your AE render times if you don’t need super huge and high quality particles. But sometimes you do.

Hey Maltaannon,
Awesome tutorials! Am working my way through MILG5 and am having problems with the light following the dancer in the Butterfly man.
I put the code that you show (I think):
temp = thisComp.layer(“Disperse”).effect(“Avidion MotionGrabber”)(“Output Position”);
[temp[0], temp[1], 0];
and it works once, then I get this window:
After Effects warning: invalid numeric result
(divide by zero?)
Expression disabled.
Error occurred at line 0.
Comp: “FinalButterflyMan
Layer: 1(‘Light 1′)
Property: ‘Point of Interest’
and it stops working.
I tried keeping the temp[1]] for the third parameter, but that didn’t work either. How do I make the light follow the POI consistently?
Thanks so much.
