MTV is satisified with what I do (my stunning illustrations, lol). But they require me to know After Effects. Since it’s a TV channel, they make those intros in Adobe Effects, and not Flash, unfortunatelly. Yes, of course they make some illustrations/objects in Illustrator, Photoshop at first. But to make them _alive_,designers use AE. So, the first part of such production I already know (illustrations). Now, I need to learn AE. Best books for Adobe After Effects you’d like to recommend? Thanx. 🙂
