Nice!

Thanks, Tim! That's a very cool effect.

BTW - I tried the URL you mentioned at the end of the video www.hyper.tv/hyperblog but it took me to a HYPER TV page about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and heart disease.

And for anyone who still doesn't know how to translate Mac shortcuts to PC, it's simple:

Mac PC
Command = Control
Option = Alt

That's the only difference.

Not a MAC user

I am trying to follow the tutorial but some of the keyboard short cuts are not fit for my PC, is there a tutorial of these for non MAC users? By the way i can't make all the picture one frame long, when i hit the keyframe settings all are gone except the one on the top in the composition 2. I am almost there but this problem stops me, please help me coz this softwares are big deal for me.
