I first got into After Effects while taking a course in which making a short film was part of the examination. It seemed like a great program and after stumbling on a tutorial on how to make a Star Wars text-scroll by Brian Maffitt, I was hooked.

Right now I'm finishing up the last parts for my degree, but unfortunately that has nothing to do with After Effects and only very little with video.Hopefully I can still get a job that at least has something to do with video.

My spare time is generally spent at the gym. It's not helping much, but if I stop I suppose I'll find out what it's keeping away.

Text that Blows away like Sand

In this tutorial, Emanuel Eriksson uses masks and Particle Playground in After Effects to demonstrate how to blow a text, or any object for that matter, off the screen as if it was made up by small grains of sand.
