Welcome to the tutorials page. I wanted to put this page on my site because of how important online video tutorials were and still are to my growth as an artist. I feel like I should give something back considering how many tips and techniques I’ve learned from other people I never met through these same type of tutorials. So these may not be the best out there, but I will try to offer anything to help anyone develop their skills in motion graphics.

Tutorial: Super Text in Cinema 4D

Cinema 4D users should check out this tutorial on how to create “Super Text.” Super Text is not exact, but similar to what Superman’s font looks like. It has 3D letters that extend far back into a vanishing point. Here is a project file to start you off with the materials I will be using in the tutorial.

Tutorial: Paper Rip Effect in After Effects

This tutorial will show you how to make it appear that a big piece of your footage is being ripped off like a sheet of paper.
