Tutorial
by Richard Martin

This Senior Citizen has alot more to learn.. I have Zaxwerks Pro, which I really like. But I don't have AE or Illustrator, which I can't afford. Seems every program today, one needs After Effects. Anyway the tutorial was fantastic. Was refreshing to watch someone who knows what they are doing , and of course the imagination to use the tools along w/the mind.. I need to find AE at a reasonble price. Regards Richard

Tutorial Problems
by Brett Perry

Hi,
I've tried watching this tutorial a few times now and it just stops at the same place each time? All the other videos play fine, so I don't think the problems on my end. Could someone on your end check it out. I could really use the tip on readjusting the pivot point of a set.
Thanks,
Brett
