This is wild. It would save so much time in expression rigging to do the same animation. Not to mention faster rendering since you wouldn't have as many expressions in your animation

It's a simple plugin but it's so effective and I am definitely adding it to my workflow. Mostly because of the recolor features.

Fortunately @Adobe is incapable of bringing useful features, otherwise we wouldn't have @goodboyninja

This man is a genius when it comes to making After Effects more fun to use

It's basically like semi-manual tweening but better. damn that's helpful.

Experiments with Shpr by @goodboyninja. It is a very intuitive script, from a shape layer you can create different animations and deformations. In this case I did not use any expression.

School of Motion

It's got, in our opinion, one of the best UI's of any Extension we've ever seen, and it's an incredible time-saver.

(shpr) does insane things to shape layers and is pretty fairly priced

I also used the Shpr plugin by goodboy ninja, and a few other ones to speed up the workflow

🙌 Finally someone made an after effects plugin I dreamt of making years ago. #skew

And try Kangaroo a pretty new incredible duplicator with a twist.

This tool really saves a lot of time doing simple things that using after effects classic way takes so much time

Skew Pro is a godly plugin that solves everything that you've thought was a pain until now. It's probably the best thing about being able to subdivide keyframes.

I left motion design to start a company but your plugin alone makes me want to come back, really.

It's safe to say that I use Kangaroo daily at this point. Born late to buy a house, born early to explore the galaxy, but just in time to use Kangaroo.

SHPR looks like a hybrid of SIGNAL from @GSG3D and a bunch of spline distortion tools that you would expect to find in a vector illustration program all animatable in After Effects. Looks like fun!

Holmes Motion

It's reminiscent of repeaters, but with way more power and flexibility.

@goodboyninja 's work on SKEW feels like it's from the far flung future. Everything my brain wanted was already there & found in seconds. Shortcuts, simple but powerful gestures. All there where you think it would be.

This is a great plugin. I wish it would be officially included in Ae.

It’s a truly new interaction paradigm on a hard-to-represent visual layout... Nothing this beautiful exists in the default Adobe tools.

neat wiggle plug-in if you wanna see the wiggle before you apply it.

@goodboyninja's brain just works different – this tiny mini-graph editor for adjusting the spacing for clones in their new KANGAROO script for After Effects?!? Genius-level.

If I need something fast I use Noodle. Pretty small unobstructive panel. Can also bake the expressions to keyframes

There's a great free tool called Noodle 2 by Goodboy ninja that can add overshoot like this in just 1 click. It's so handy

Here's a WIP that I had tons of fun with Kangaroo (@goodboyninja)
