- Hi, my name is Nick Harauz. I'm a professional video editor and motion graphic designer. Welcome to AE Guru Plugins You Should Get To Know. While After Effects offers you a lot of ways to enhance your layers and built-in effects with presets and animation options, there's a large collection of third party plugins available on the market. In this course, we'll explore some of those plugins, both big and small, and how they might make your life easier. Before looking at the various plugins, we'll make sure to see some of the functionality already built into After Effects.
We'll then dive into plugins that create particle simulations, create 3D text and objects, enhance beautify, and of course, simplify complex key-framed animations. If you're curious to see and compare what's available on the market for After Effects users, then this course is definitely for you.
