Updates on Making It Look Great 5
Posted on 18. Sep, 2008 by Jerzy Drozda Jr in Blog
We are working hard on Making It Look Great 5 and that’s the reason I wasn’t providing much new content lately. So in exchange I thought I’ll let you in on a little status update with MILG5. We are already halfway through. If everything goes well we should be releasing it in no more than 6 weeks. Unfortunately I became very sick and sometimes I have to give my plans up, go to the doctor and lay in bed for a few days. But I’m not giving up, oh no.
There is also a good side to all of this. Being forced to postpone the work on the tutorials gave me more time to think about what is interesting and what should the tutorials be about, and I assure you… the things me and John came up with are really going to blow your mind. With that said I’m hoping that MILG5 will start a new breed of MILG training series. Even if it doesn’t I’m sure it will still be one of a kind. Not only we’ll be presenting to you at least 10 unique tutorials, not only you will again see how to make your work look great, but you’ll also learn how to make it work great. You know me – I hate keyframes. I’ve focused on making great looking graphics in the simplest possible way while making them as flexible and reusable as possible. Above that I’ll be giving away some of my upcoming products that are not yet available for purchase, so if you buy MILG5 you’ll be one of the chosen ones to receive some free products along with it.
Since there are at least five more tutorials to do here’s your chance: tell us what you want to see. Please remember that MILG is about motion graphics, not vfx, so keep that in mind when suggesting tutorials. Your requests should also not relate to any Zaxwerks products. We’ve done that a lot already. Instead you may request tutorials on any build-in plugins, expressions, workflow tips, and Trapcode plugins.
Happy AfterEffecting!

How about breaking down motion graphics used in ads, especially like car ads, music videos that use motion graphics, so we can see how the production process would work, kind of like andrew kramer’s meteor tutorial(which is vfx) but for motion graphics?
