I xpresso'd my own Morph Cam in #C4D with individual controls. I found the morph cam's lack of finesse frustrating. On a job where flexibility was critical, I spent the time to make it happen. Grab it from my website if you want it! jctecklenburg.com/dlc

Arc for Adobe After Effects is available @aescripts.bsky.social Arc creates beautiful curves by default, but some users have requested that they follow After Effects' default behaviour. The next release of Arc will allow users to choose their keyframing method.

When I was a Samsung watch wearer, I designed a watch face for watchOS. I never implemented it, but I thought I'd give it a little bit of life in a render. @getplasticity.bsky.social > @marmoset3d.bsky.social

Thanks for the shout out. It’s been a while since I’ve updated Proximity but it still works in AE 2025. I’ve considered a big update for it but I don’t know if there would be much interest.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
When merging shape layers they aren't both shapes in one layer, it's a single parametric rectangle to so it's easy to apply rounding and use the size property.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
What about making new comps from the comps in the timeline? That would be cool... okay let's do it. Merge masks too while we're at it.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
I'm calling in GuideLine for Adobe After Effects. You don't have to make a grid with it as you can add guides anywhere, but a grid might be a good place to start for merging shape layers for more customized layouts.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 11/02/2025
I've never actually checked it out before. I took a look, they are similar but tackle things a bit differently.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
I dig the Guide Manager in Affinity Designer, so I made a version for Adobe After Effects. Create guides, shape layers, precomps, or solids with masks. Enter values in percentages or pixels, create presets, import existing guides from the active comp, and other QOL.

That's a great idea. You would just have to get the right combination of effects to keyframe to get the wanted look and then use Fractal Noise to drive the Time Displacement.

Kevin Snyder @freshmograph.bsky.social · 04/02/2025
This is my take on a Kinetic Typography tutorial using CC Pixel Polly. In my version, Time Displacement is used, which provides more control over the particle dissolving. I love the addition of Dehancer Pro Film and Quick Chromatic Aberration 3 from PluginEverything for a nice organic feel.
