How do all these great sites make some of the (movie style) special effects? Do they use Adobe After Effects? If so, I haven’t been able to find any good sites explaining how to create such effects…

Does anyone have any tutorial links on how to do this stuff?? :h:

After effects is a programs that people use to edit video and add special effects to them. Video doesnt always mean something that is recored with a camcorder.

There are tutorials that teach you how to begin. Use soultys tutorial on [kirupa.com](http://kirupa.com) (search for it) and that will teach you how to begin.

You might also sometimes get plugins to create the really cool effects.

The rest is by yourself ;).
