    Great tutorial, Manuel. Brilliant job as always. 10:14 A question: instead of converting the null & layer into 3D + rotating it, can’t you just leave the null into 2D and turn de 100% x scale into negative (unchecked dimensions) and leave the y scale at 100%?
  • @ImposterCure
    This was slick! Though there a benefit to adding a point at the high point of a bounce vs using the graph to create it?
  • @kellykurtzdesign
    Freaking love this, your ball bounce technique is much easier than SOM ;)
  • @cobdg4735
    nice as always .can i ask you a question . where can i find these palete shape properties and shape trasnform ?
  • @dudecartergg
    Would there be a reason as to why my convert vertex tool doesn't work properly when holding shift on a keyframe? It doesn't produce the adjustment handles or anything. Thanks for any help!
  • bro is that properties shape panel extension or is it in after effects . is there any tutorial about that ?
  • @regkapur832
    Would there be a reason I cannot adjust the curve with the 'Convert Vertex' tool?
