It's so crazy how old that effect is and people are still trying to replicate it, it was so well done in the Black Or White video!

[queldar]

When I saw the announcement for this tutorial, I thought: this is the best morph I've seen since the Black and White video. Really fantastic how you explain the initial preparation on the shoot and all the tools and how they work. This is a perfect tutorial.

[LosCampechanos]

I still remember the first time I saw that effect in Michael Jackson's Black Or White, I was all crazy trying to think how they had done it, without a doubt the king of pop was ahead of time. Thanks for this great tutorial, a hug and success.

[themuckyman]

I love the way you explain how the tools work instead of just using
them and letting others figure it out, it is part of what makes you a
very special tutor.
I was also unaware of the morph cut tool in Premiere heh!
Well done as always and thanks for the time you spent.

[EliasWolf]

I finally figured it out! So I think the reason some people dislike your videos is because they're new to After Effects so they won't know what a key is or that you have to click on the stopwatch.. so when you put "easy" on the tutorial they're gonna want you to explain everything in detail. I've been using After Effects for awhile so I figured everything out but someone who has never used it would be lost without a background in the program

[gvuprise]

You did nothing wrong you presented this tutorial so unique and cool. Those who disliked this video and many more just hated maybe on you the awesome person you are and your talent. Simply that 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[DmitryFadeiev]

This is the best morphing tutorial I've ever seen 🔥

[choosebehappy]

Nochmals, neben deiner exzellenten englischen Sprache, ist dieses Video, das ich zum ersten Mal sehe, exzellent!

Vielen Dank!

[saimonrom]

very cool! I'm from Brazil and I looked for this type of tutorial since I saw that Michael Jackson clip. Thanks!

[laurentb]

The best teacher i have ever seen, i m Alone at home and you are so clear with a powerful knowledge!!! Thank you so much to be there !!! Go on !! I will follow you every Time !! You are a genius

[negus]

Selten so ein gutes und vor allem heftig informatives Tutorial gesehen. Richtig nice wie du die Tools auch erstmal erklärst. Mega was gelernt.

[kurdmanpouyesh]

da fuuuuq?! The morph cut effect is mind blowing. Woooow

[KaijuJedi]

Dude - you're sick - keep doing what you're doing. The people who gave you a thumbs down on this video are probably noobs looking for a quick/lazy fix for their morph cut problems.

[videoediting]

This trick with morph cut while editing interviews is super helpful, thanks a lot man!

[jwattsjmd]

You’re hands down my favorite YouTuber to learn from. Keep up the amazing work. A million thumbs up 👍🏽

[RichNewDesign]

Good tutorial. I really liked the extra time you spent going over parts of the Liquify tool, and that Morph Cut transition will be something I can use for sure.

[hoodwinkedfool]

One thing I love about this tutorial is it explains the idea behind the process first. Too many tutorials just go step by step without explaining WHY you are doing what you are doing.

[bingbang]

Since I was little and saw the MJ video i was waiting for a software to have a simple drag and drop transition.
Thumbs up for the tutorial and for the editors VFX artist of the video back then

[iMobileGuru]

Ох, помню как я удивлялся в детстве этому клипу Джексона. Ставил покадровое воспроизведение и не верил своим глазам. А теперь я могу сделать это за 20 минут не имея никакого опыта в монтаже. Магия.

[Gothorella]

I just found your YT and I think you are my new favorite tutorial channel. Thank you so so much <3 (seriously, the way you explain things really helps make it understandable. Thank you)
