The VFX Vlog is the perfect place for you to ask me your After Effects, film making or visual effects questions! It also gives me a chance to share some general tips & tricks with you and keep you up to date with what is happening. You may not be aware, but I have actually been running the VFX Vlog for a little while on my second channel http://www.youtube.com/surfacedstudio2 Check out the current episodes of the VFX Vlog here: VFX Vlog #1 - VFX & Film Making Tips & Tricks & QA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wturIUm7Sq8 VFX Vlog #2 - Best Camera For Film Making, Additive Blending & Masks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlFHxTJqe1s VFX Vlog #3 - Best VFX Software, Best Free Stock Footage & How To Use It http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWlqyhpJcw4 VFX Vlog #4 - Best resources for learning VFX & After Effects Masking Tips http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReuXS--0AyE There are 2 reasons for migrating my VFX Vlog over to my main channel: 1. To give you more opportunities to interact with the Surfaced Studio channel. This is the perfect place to ask any questions if you get stuck on a tutorial, have some technical issues or generally want to know something film making or VFX related. I might not always know the answer, but I will do my best to try to answer all of your questions. 2. To provide you with more regular content. Since I have been running the VFX vlog on alternating weeks to my VFX tutorials on my second channel anyways, I decided to bring them across to my main channel. I will try to alternate a VFX tutorial with a VFX Vlog for the time being. Leave your questions down below or on my facebook and twitter account. Feel free to let me know what you think of my VFX Vlog and whether you enjoy having it run on my main channel. Do note that any tutorial requests will be put onto my official request list. The list is pretty darn long by now, but I guarantee that I will note down any requests you throw my way. Thank you for watching and I hope you will enjoy my VFX Vlog!
