In this tutorial we will be creating a cool looking energy ball effect.
We will be using lots of effects to create the pulsating energy base for the effect.
On top of everything we will add a flickering optical flare to add some intensity.
We will finish it off with a burning ring of energy using the Video Copilot Saber plugin.
Finally, we will composite everything back into our original shot of Walter throwing an energy ball into my face!
All comments and feedback welcome 🙂

thanks
Thanks!!
I do want to know about that disintegration effect that looks cool
You guys are the one at Youtube.
you’re the best!
How did you put the track in the middle of his hands?
Please do disintegration effect
show us your 10 creations
can i ask what camera and lens do u use for ur videos?
Though i still need to learn those special effects from @0:25 in AE XD
How long did it took you to master AE? I find it more difficult then adobe premiere pro
I am putting my energy ball in one hand like u did.(0:40) So, What part of the hand I have to track?
Good to see you again
Great vid! I enjoyed this. It doesn’t matter because the energy ball is small but on a bigger energy ball, I think you might add like a wiggle expression (or whatever type of expression is needed) to the evolution of the light flare….hope that makes sense.
Thank you – Great to follow along to. Nice and helpful.
I love how when i watch your videos i always learn something new.
Can you do these advance tutorials also in sony vegas?
I wrote earlier, and I wonder how you pick out the good sound effects and compose them right to your videos. I have downloaded some sound packs, but it seems still impossible to me. do you have any tips?
Nice video man, I am your fan
plz give me tutorial for disintegrating
Tobias, I like it! still after all this time you are still entertaining to watch!
ha ha ha looks great. You put in so much effort in making the noise inside the ball and then add a massive glow and you cant see all that detail inside it anymore 😛
This tutorial is not at all interesting….. Sorry to say that but this is truth.
Does this tutorial still apply for Adobe After Effects CS4?
nic sir
Where did you get the sound effects for the intro?
hello there Mr. Tobias, i m beginner to the after effect this is my first tutorial and i’ve found it really help full but i need help from you. When i Create sphere matte mask then the key frame to the mask aren’t applying and doesn’t even working. so what is good solution for this?? plzzzzz reply.. thanks
I really like enjoying ur videos 🙂 And it will be Nice with a disintegration tutorial 🙂 Keep up the amazing work!
How did you attach third null object between two null object. I just didn’t get it. pls explain it…
I must confess, the disintegrating effect is a tutorial I would enjoy even more.
Nice!!!
very cool man
Nicely done
Hi, I’m having trouble with setting my mask path, it won’t scale. 7:15-7:37.
For some reason it’s not setting a keyframe when I make the mask small.
Thanks for the tutorial, everything else works fine.
Ok first off how did you messed with yourself and blown yourself up XD
Awesome!
That is so amazing
it was very nice btw how did u do that flying energy coming off of u after walter hit u with the energy ball? at 0:21
When doing some motion tracking, when and how do you decide when to use premiere or when to use after effects? I’ve watched many of your videos but get hung up on when to use what program. I know you say that shouldn’t have AE project too big because of so many layers it can have. But if I only want to animate a small or track one or two objects, do I just use premiere? Thanks. I like this video and will probably try to recreate it myself for practice. How complex have you made your projects before? in a scene how many objects have to tried to animate at one time and does it get too complex? It seems like the minecraft video would’ve taken a long time and 20x longer if I did it.
yes integration effect pls would love to see how thats done !
Could you do a tutorial on a nuclear blast? Also a wall of smoke going over the camera would be great.
when the next blender tutorial cam i love it
rasengan fx pls
