After Effects 6.5 Pro Advanced Tutorial

All:

I am in the process of developing the Advanced tutorial for After Effects 6.5 for The Virtual Training Company. You can see my current tutorial (albiet a somewhat basic one) for AE6 there now at http://www.vtc.com/products/aftereffects6.htm.

I am posting this query here to find out what people would like to see in the upcoming tutorial. If there's a feature you would like to see expanded upon or maybe a feature that doesn't seem to be explained very well in other sources (including Adobe's website), please let me know. I'm taking all suggestions at this point.

Thanks so much,

PS: Someone needs to turn off the "dirty word" filter on this board for my name, which is Dixon, but spelled the other way.

Any tips/tutorials teaching about the "new" features(me still using 5.5) would be appreciated.

Maybe a tutorial to get the "film look" in color correction, for those who don't have magic bullet.

Re: Film Look
If you are referring to the necessary gamma curve changes, saturation changes and elimination (or at least reduction) of interlacing artifacts for video footage, I agree. Good suggestion.

Using the virtual camera's in AE.
Also how to easily modify the text animation presets in 6.5

Simple applications for expressions.

I agree. Using the virtual camera can open up so many fluid motion possibilities, especially when trying to stabilize shaky footage that wanders.

I want to do at least two hours of content on expressions. I love programming and I think AE's use of Javascript, while not perfect, opens up so many possibilities.
