3 Websites Where You Can Find Creative Inspiration
There are two types of creatives. The ones who have a never-ending well of inspiration and those that just can't seem to find it.
Finding inspiration is hard. It's not easy to come up with a new concept for an animation or design, but it doesn't have to be impossible.
Staring at a blank screen or paper is enough to make anyone feel uninspired, but that doesn't mean the ideas aren't there. It's just your creative brain is taking its time to find them amongst all the noise in your life.
The internet has made it easier than ever before to find inspiration and I've found 3 places you might not have thought about where you can find some much needed inspiration.
Which Glow Plug-in Should You Use
After Effects comes with a standard glow plug-in, but it can be challenging to get good results quickly.
Because of that, several 3rd party companies have made their own glow plug-ins for After Effects.
In today's video we are comparing the glow plug-ins:
1. Internal Glow
2. Red Giant Optical Glow
3. Sapphire Glow
4. Deep Glow
