It’s a bit of a bumper edition in this weeks “This Week in Motion Design”. We’ve got links this week from Nick Campbell, Brad Chmielewski, some good tutorials from AE Tuts, some nice downloads from Hypoly and a video entitled “Visual Effects – 100 years of inspiration”.
AE Tuts
AE Tuts from Envato have had some great tutorials this week, the first was a vfx based tutorial on making an explosive corridor blast just using still images.
The second is a great motion graphic based tutorial on creating a neon light.
Nick Campbell (aka GreyScale Gorilla)
As per usual, Nick comes up every week with some great tutorials and blog posts each week and this week is no exception! This week we have the next 5 second project entitled “Self Portrait“. If you havent heard of the 5 second project before then i suggest you watch the video below:

The other great link from Nick Campbell this week is a great Cinema 4D/After Effect tutorial entitled “How to make a Cascading Text Animation With Cinema 4D and After Effects” which creates the video below. If your into Cinema 4D then it’s definitely worth checking out!

Hypoly
Our next link this week is from Hypoly. On his blog he has some great downloads and presets for After Effects and Cinema 4D, one of the good ones i a script to create and parent a camera in After Effects, definitely worth checking out!
Another link from Brad again this week. Have you ever wondered what kind of difference it makes in After Effects if you have Caps Lock on whilst rendering a composition? or wondered if closing the composition window whilst rendering makes a difference? Well Brad did just that and ran a series of tests to see what difference it would make. Check out the video below:
Visual Effects – 100 Years of Inspiration
I came across a nice little video that Eumagine Factory posted this week, which is nice round up of how Visual Effects have progressed from the beginning of the 20th Century. Check out the video below:
That’s it for this weeks round up! Let me know if you think we’ve missed any great links out this week and if you fancy it maybe digg, twitter or share the post! Come back next week for another round up!
