Been using Sony Vegas for years and I figured it's finally time to give AE a try.

I followed a tutorial and finally made something. Yes, it's very small and extremely basic but it's a start and just wanted to share it. Please give constructive criticism if you can , want to learn as much as possible.

Still trying to find good render settings and all that's the quality sucks, like I said I'm extremely new to AE.

**Update**
I made a 2nd edit, still not that good but I'm starting to see minor improvement already. I am definitely not a fan of the way the ending looks though

You'll get the hang of AE in no time. I'd delete sony vegas now. AE has about 500 plugins that vegas doesn't.

Looks awesome, I can tell you have potential.
I've always wanted to get into video editing but I do not have a PC good enough for it. Roughy how long did it take you to edit this?

This took me about 3- hours since I was learning, didn't even know how to render while I was making this. I've had After Effects for less then 3 days now so I don't think this is too bad considering how long I've had it.

Yeah mate,
Nice edit! Mabe sync the beat to the shots a bit. The colour grading looks good. Transitions look clean.
Overall 8/10!
Awesome effort for the first attempt.


PS Thanks for putting a little BO2 in my day. Haven't played COD in years. Good memories!

It's a smart move to begin to learn AE, I still to this day can only use Sony Vegas because of how simple it is.
