Kevin, several people mentioned the video freezing (audio continues) and I suppose you've missed those comments. It happens at 4:38

Hey William,
Thanks for your comment. I just watched the video, and it played back (video and audio) no problems. Remember, if there is ever a problem with the flash plackback, you can always download an MP4 version of the tutorial by clicking on the link below the video window.

Just purchased this based on what little I could see of the presentation movie before it froze. Hope the presentation gets fixed!

Awesome product. Purchasing it today. I really love the 3D Cyclorama feature. As one who is more of a producer rather than an editor or graphic artist, I'm curious if anyone can tell me where I can find a tutorial on creating seamless 2D & 3D Cycloramas in Photoshop or other applications.

Yes, great product - I use it quite a bit and it is so easy - always great results.
I recommend you get it at this price!

annimation stops working half way through the lesson, why when the majority of us are PC users, do you knuckleheads engineer a MAC version first, dumb!

Thanks Kevin...
Love it!! Want it!...
Can't have it :[
Great text FX plug in, BUT alas no Windows version supported...Damn!
Do hope the "Motype" creators are reading this.
Come on guys, we're not all Mac users.
Cheers...
Disappointed Tony :[

Oh well, it's MAC only.... I guess I'll have to wait for a PC version...I hope it's as cheap as the MAC version....OK MAC'ers, stop laughing at me....LOL

Thanks for the tutorial, Kevin. It looks like you can only get one line of text at a time. Is it possible to get more than one line of text?
One review I read said that FxFactory Pro is required to run this plug-in...is that true?
Finally, is it possible to render a text animation with alpha (like any other AE text effect) so it can be brought into my editing program for use over video?
Thanks.

Hey Robert,
What's important to keep in mind about MoType is that if you do not have a MoType generated background, an Alpha is put in its place, so you could quickly and easily have multiple lines of text on different layers/groups in AE or Motion, and then create the background on a separate layer/group with no text, and voila, lines of text composited on the background.
And yes, you do need FX Factory Pro, but it's absolutly free, so don't let that worry you.
My first answer should have answered your last question, but yes, you can render out of AE/Motion with Alpha channels for the NLE of choice!

Unbelievable! This looks amazing. Is there a sample reel of what it can do? When I bought ProAnimator from DJ, there was a great demo reel. Is there one for this or did I miss it? Thanx DJ!!!
