Q. I just got Adobe After Effects CS3. And I want to know exactly how I make those typography animations.
All I need is a tutorial of some sort, whether it be a video or typed out into a very large and descriptive tutorial.

A. There's many ways you can do it, but from the sounds of it you may be looking for a tutorial on how to use the Per Character 3D
Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about.

There's a ton of presets you can check out for some examples. If you want to look through the gallery of preset AE text animations you can open Bridge and navigate to the folder with all the text presets. The path will be something like...C:\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS3\Support Files\Presets\Text.
These can work for some things and you can modify a preset to make it your own, but most graphic designers will stay away from them and make more customized animations.
Anyways, look around for a tutorial for Per Character 3D or try to figure it out by looking at the existing presets...it's probably a good place to start for someone who's new with After Effects.

A. Unfortunately, yes, Photoshop brushes do work in Elements and can become addicting. (I just downloaded 2 really cute sets of Easter Bunny brushes and a set of custom shapes.)
It's also unfortunate that they're easy to install into Elements. I have PSE6 but installing hasn't changed too much in the recent versions. You'll download a zip folder. I usually download the folder to my Desktop so I won't have to hunt for it. Right click on it and click on Extract All.
Find the extracted folder, right click on it and click Copy. (Don't open it, just right click on the folder.)
You use Windows Explorer to put the extracted folder into PSE's Brushes folder. I open Documents and use the Windows Explorer on its left side. Scroll down to Computer and click the +, then click the + next to C:, Click the + next to Program Files, then the + next to Adobe, the + next to Photoshop Elements 7.0. Scroll down and click the + next to Presets and scroll down to Brushes. Click it to open, right click on an empty space in the white area over to the right of WE in area that's showing the files....make sure you haven't clicked on any of the files or folders that are showing, and click Paste. Done!
When you're using the Brush Tool in PSE, go up to the Brush Selector in the Options Bar above the workspace and click to open it. Up at the top of the dropdown is a box showing the brush set that's displayed, click to open it and scroll down until you see the name of your new brush set and click on it to load it. If the thumbnails are too small to see well: over on the right side of the Brush Selector are two little arrows. Click on them and at the top of the dropdown that appears, you can choose a larger size thumbnail. I almost went blind until I discovered this;)
The neat thing about the brushes is that not only can you paint and make designs with them but you can choose special brushes when you're using the Eraser Tool, too, and use the brushes to remove color in a pattern.
Have fun! Oh, and don't forget to make a folder to store the zip files and extracted folders. Back this folder up every once and awhile and, if anything ever happens to your computer or if you ever have to uninstall/reinstall the program, you've still got them and don't have to go hunting for them.
