I would start steering clear of Adobe products and investing time, money and energy in their software. which means After Effects too. Theres a reason they are now FINALLY being exposed and ripping off their customers. I used to be an AE guy but made the shift finally about 5 years ago. My point is maybe learn some better software that does the same thing as AE (and even free ins some cases...or at least a whole lot cheaper--ie. Fusion on Davinci Resolve) and make a transition away from them. It will benefit you down the road.
Guess you are unware of the Adobe news that is everywhere on them ripping off their customers. They are unscrupulous to their customers. Buyer beware....wait... I mean "Renter" beware of your subscriptions and your content which they will use to train their AI and claim to own whatever is in the cloud on their software...read Terms carefully. Look it up
They say they don't train their AI on people's uploaded content...but they already did. If you uploaded stuff to Behance (and/or Adobe Stock), they already used your content to train their AI models. They used your own work in an effort to make you obsolete. It's some of the most underhanded shit I've ever seen. Adobe can't be trusted. Full stop.
Was trying to just do a really simple stylized flame. Your bookmarks helped a ton and all my questions were answered in a short amount of time. Thank you!!!
Look mom, I'm famous 🥳 Thank you for covering my in your video. I was not aware this existed 😇 It's really cool and I will tune in more often from now on!
Wow! What a great format of the news! Subscribing+++ (even I know your channel for about a year+, this playlist hits me in the bull's eye) Just few hours ago I watch a Lottie website's AI copilot review. My IMHO these guys is more about the money than real developement. Zipped json as one of the main pros for subscribing their website services is just a shame.
I've been using layer comps for 15 years, it's an ESSENTIAL tool in my workflow for doing storyboards and design iterations. I love how you can quickly output jpegs. The big quality of life improvement is if you have to make a change to a logo that exists on 30 frames, you set up a keyboard shortcut for "file/export/layer comps to file" and hit enter. None of this "save a copy", and then physically remove the text "copy" from the filename.
(0:55) Your take is spot on for any of these AI services. I am absolutely numb to anything AI now because in order to achieve these "AMAZING, MIND BLOWING, EPIC (enter any other click-baity youtuber's buzzword)" results, you have generate 'till the cows come home. That gets expensive really fucking fast.
The problem with Adobe is when you are, as 99.99% of the industry, under “Work for Hire”…..nobody has addressed this situation so far, not even Adobe. Regarding AI, I agree with you that is a cool thing for having fun, but lighting years away from professional use, mostly because you don’t own the final result, like the Adobe situation. Perhaps would it be good to explains to your audience that unless you contributed to at least 70% of your creation. You can’t get it copyrighted, and prompting is just 1% of contribution according to the copyright office. But coming back to the professional use of AI, I feel like we’re in similar times like the late 80’s and early 90’s when Autodesk released Animator, and it was a program done by software coders and no artists involved, same as 3D Studio for DOS…..it took years to convince Autodesk to get artists involved in the development of their tools. AI has RU-vidrs as advisers, so go figure what you can get out of that….no youtuber ever made a film, a show or even a TV commercial, working with tight deadlines, under extreme pressure and with the need to achieve perfection rapidly. A work where you have to know about cameras, lenses, lighting, acting, modeling, texturing, environments, refraction, reflections (how the light interacts with surfaces), animation, and the list goes forever. You can know all of these and still fail as an artist if you can’t handle the pressure or if you can’t combine the tools adequately to get great results fast enough…..anyways, AI seems promising but not until they incorporate professional artists to help. A simple example? 2 years after the release of diffusion models THERES no way to control de direction of the eyes in a video…..a recurrent feature from many filmmakers that developers keep ignoring…..anyways, thanks for your videos for the young community, so far the best compilation of news on RU-vid……typos by iOS.
@@joeykorenman I can suggest Adam Rozen, an expert in IP and also lawyer of Spielberg, JJ Abrahams, Michael Bay and many more……he’s also a producer and understands the industry in and out……
Democratizing 3D? They only want to train their AIs. By the way, can someone explain me what is the point of adobe making their AIs more and more capable? I mean if designers buy their software, why would adobe want to put designers out of the game?
Because they have shifted their focus from the designers (who made them industry leaders in the first place) to everyone. Time for competitors to emerge...
