Have I told you lately that I love you! I use AE at work and these videos are immensely useful. I feel like I've learned so much from your tutorials! Thank you!

[cholasimmons]

I'm stunned to only discover Essential Graphics now, I use AE everyday for work! :O
I think the way I'm going to implement this into my workflow is:
I create Digital Out-Of-Home billboard videos for clients, here in Zambia our mainstream providers have about 5, 6 maybe 7 different resolutions and I basically create one video in the largest res, then duplicate it and shrink it to the next appropriate size. Essential Graphics should come in handy!
What I think would really do the trick is Constraints, like Affinity Designer has (or Android Studio), that would be an even bigger help!!

Thank you PremierGal your videos are so clear and helpful :)

[mirzainshrah]

your content and the way you present it is truly awsome :)

I just found your channel through Video Creators and had never heard of the Essential Graphic panel. It's such a time saver and am already using it. Thank you so much.

It's helping me a lot - I feel as though I'm truly beginning to grasp how to make AE work for me, especially when I need to send things over to Premiere Pro. Can't wait for the next lesson!

[TylerKidd]

Im a big fan of making templates to speed up the editing process so I think this will definitely help with my workflow. Thank you Premiere Gal!

[DerekMakerFitness]

This tutorial is amazing. I've come back to it a few times this year. It's allowed me to make some cool graphics by showing basics you can build upon. Thanks!

[IanWhelan]

Great tutorials! I have years of experience with AE but haven't had to interact with expressions very much. I'm looking forward to learning more, and hopefully using them to save time.

Just wanted to stop by and leave you some praise. Awesome tutorial! It is so great when others share their knowledge! Way to rock it! You've got a subscriber! I may have some other questions about Data Management methods if you wouldn't mind sharing some time. :)

Always Thanks! How Can I See Translate text?

[ohfoohy]

How would I go about getting this to work with multiple lines of text? When I add another line of text through essential graphics, the alignment is off. The rectangles increase in height and width, but they do it from the center, where the text box increases its size by adding onto the bottom, not both top and bottom like the rectangle. Thoughts? I'm looking for maybe an expression or something where I can keep to position/anchor points aligned? or scale the height from the bottom? THANKS!

[lucasjones]

I really like this Tutorial. I was Trying to put a few different things on it and was struggling with the box fitting around the text when it takes up more than 1 line (hitting the return key). The text then goes down, while the text box stays centered. Can I link the position of the text relative to the box instead of typing from top down?

I used a video file in the lower third and export the template as essential graphics for premiere PRO, text is working fine but video file doesn't have an alpha channels. Any idea what to do?

[jacealbano]

Hi! Great Video tutorial! But I have a problem. I have a free Trial of after effects cc 2017. I don't know why, but I can't find the essential graphics in my window can you help me with this? thanks in advance.
Godbless.
