Anyone ever use Adobe After Effects? I'm trying to put together a little youtube short, Bakshi style, with a bunch of psychadelic doom to the soundtrack. Still downloading right now but for someone reasonably familiar with Illustrator is it pretty cohesive?

You're probably better off with Premiere unless you're planning on using a bunch of special effects in your video. You can follow tutorials to do so, but I never really felt like learning the program to be honest.

Lightworks is good too if you don't want to buy the full version of Premiere.

I've heard this After Effects is the best for rotoscoping, which will be the main focus. So definitely using special effects.

You're gonna want to use tutorials then. Not an easy program to learn.

I've been promoted to Vice President. No money or perks though. Just the title. So now the company payroll is one president and two VPs. Zero underlings.

Just looked at the grades for one of my classes, and I got a 100 on an exam that I only finished a little over half of. WTF? My professor is a lazy idjit, but I'm not complaining.

Speaking of perks....

Just found out that after an entire year of vetting, one of Lin's best friends is now officially employed by the FBI.

You ****ers better treat me right from here on out.
