  1. Good lord, where did you dig this up? This tutorial actually predates the 'web... I originally designed and distributed it in DocMaker, a Mac-only hypercard program, via AOL!
    Kinda fun that it all still works...

  2. It comes from Digital Producer, and I was happy to find it. I just noticed you said "pre-compify"!

    Hey, have you considered opening the vaults on tutorials for the Atomic Power and CC plug-ins that now ship with AE?

    I think they'd be popular and useful. They haven't changed that much that adding updated comments, in text or more, would be involved or even necessary.
