Stephen Kampff at Fstoppers on The Basic Tools You Should Have for After Effects
I am a huge fan of AEScripts and many of these are tools from there that I love and use.

From Justin Odisho, these are pretty simple, but might be helpful for some.
Andrew Kramer of Video Copilot has been pretty quite for a few years, but he recently updated all his apps to M1 and here is his tutorial in a while.
Honestly I never realized this i set a single frame in and out, so check out this tip.
I don’t post too many Photoshop tutorials, but this one is awesome. I can’t wait to really try it out. Impressive and well worth checking out.
This is from photoshopCAFE.
Yea this has been out for a while, but have to post it. Rich Young’s roundups are always a must read.
I am glad to have a creative cloud Frame.io account, and have been using Frame allot at work. I still think the direct from camera is more for features or tv than the commercials I work on, but it is very cool.
IFrame.io’s work from home features with built in proxy generation needs better Adobe integration. It doesn’t currently work with Adobe’s proxy feature, so files must be manually relinked (and Adobe’s proxy workflow won’t work with only proxys), and if you use low rez proxies for size moves and the like don’t scale, everything would need to be redone manually. Let’s hope Adobe works on this with Frame . And I hate H264, and h264 proxies. ProRes Proxys are so much better (i know they take up more space, but they are do much better), timelines play back great with any ProRes and even with M1 ProRes processors.
Video Copilot has added M1 support to all of it’s paid and free plug ins, and they are of course free updates.
Also nice to have download links to all the free plug ins in one place.
I love all these plug ins and use them all extensively, so this is great news.
In fact I am really using the free ORB for a short I am working on right now.
Motion Island has done an extensive article on Blend Modes in after effects that is quite useful.
