absolute BANGER of a tutorial. Ive just been getting started with AE and motion design and this tutorial is helpful in so many more ways than you may have intended. Thanks bro

Thank you for explaining this effects so clearly. I was totally mystified by this effect. I love your tutorials.

The idea of using the footage as a source is brilliant. The key to make the pattern look incredible here is the Mosaic effect though, thanks for sharing this Nick!

I've always been suffering from duplicating a lot of assets, this is life changing thank you

omg, just saw your promo for the course.. you are hilarious!! this is the best way to learn - when you don't take yourself too seriously and it's just fun. definitely buying your course. thanks man!

i've been looking for an effect similar to this for years. thank you

Dude.. this is so awesome. I’ve been looking for this for ages! Thank you so much!

I love this channel, nothing better then chuckling and learning.

Nice creative use of displacements. Gives you a lot of ideas.

This opens so many possibilities for creativity, so Amazing

This is so cool! Omg I love how it turned out!

So excited to watch !!!

Hell yeah bro! Thats just what I was looking for!!! Thank you!

This is truly amazing!

I always appreciate good informative and useful tutorials

simply brilliant! amazing and smart idea of using all that...

This is awesome man. Really clever. Thanks!

Awesome tutorial, man!!! thanks so much

Insane! Thank you Nick!!

This was great! I created a gradient controller for shape patterns based on this, by pre-comping what you did in the tutorial then linking the Gradient Ramp controls to an effect in the new comp. I know there's ways of achieving the same effect with expressions and an ocean of shape layers, but this was so much more CPU friendly (and I'm no expression wizard anyways).

Using Mosaic to ensure the Time Dispalcement is the same within a block - brilliant Nick!

Thank you so much! This effect is gonna open the new doors for me.

Brilliant! Thanks that's given me all sorts of new ideas 🤔

Fantastic tutorial, thank you

This video was amazing man thank you so much!

I'm a huge fan of this channel man!!! I can't believe the timing of this, I have been trying to do something like this for my project :D

Awesome video. This is what I've been looking for. Thanks

This technique is very clever! Really good tutorial, so much potential! thank you

I'm so glad I found your channel. Thank you for everything you're doing 🔺⭕️ 🟥 ❤️ (if you use your imagination that's an animated heart)

Thank you so much !!! this tutorial help me a lot !!!!!

Brilliant! I'll have to try this 👍

This tip was awsome, thanks a lot!

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It couldn’t of come at a better time 🙏🏽💯 Always on point and helpful. Thank you so much.

Learned a lot from this, thanks!

Ooh, that effect might be pretty cool on an evolving fractal noise. Really neat!

BRO! My brain is so happy, thanks for the AMAZING tips!

Loving the Channel!

This is awesome!

Thank you man...this is so cool!

This is wild. Love it.

so cool!thanks for sharing this.

nice! great idea with the mosaic!

Awesome. Thanks!

This is very cool! Thank you!

WOW bro, this is a game changer, thanks a lot for sharing

This is amazing!

Thank You very much!

THIS IS MAD CRAZYY

Wow, you and I have almost the same work space layout . Gotta love RIFT, it is underrated.

Awesome !

very helpful thank you

Oho, hey! Way cool. I'd not thought about using time displacement on motion graphics like this. I'd been focused on high-frame-rate video from my phone.

Nice tutorial. Can we get other advanced tutorials using time displacement? Thank you.

Bro your awesome bro , create tutorial awesome always

This is so amazing

very useful . thanks

great tutorial and tips

Can you post more typographic tutorials? I love your works they are fantastic!

Man you r doing some really cool things

Thank you very much! This is great! Could you share the keyboard command to bring up the effects marking menu?

Thank you

very nice tut

I have seen it done with fractal as a generator for the mosaic.

Dude you are funny. And helpful. Thank you

I come from Jake's channel, nice Effect by the way...and good sense of humor.

amazing

Subbed ❤️

Nice!

Pro Tip: You can also use "Repeater" If you want to use shapes to animate it. ( Click The " Add > " button on the top right of the properties [ double press "u" to see the properties ] )

came here from reddit and almost insta-subbed. you're fun to watch and also a good teacher. i'm sad because you have few videos but can't wait for you to upload more! btw could you please integrate the addon to show what buttons you press? you did that in other videos. thanks for sharing this info with us man!

Awesome

so cool！

In a crowded social media market of motion designer educators, Nick is inventive and delightfully quirky.

You just got a new subscriber! :-)

Cool!

You’re so clever, Nick

can you use time displacement to change colors instead of shape sizes?

Hot shit! Subbed!

You had me at 'WEEEEE'!

Very cool : )-

Cool

Neat.

Hi, Nick please tutorial for your intro please it looks so interesting

Tops!

What was being used to control the gradient in the original example at 0:26?

haha how do you get the ripple with time displacement? I've been looking for that type of effect

"It's trying to reference itself, which is illegal" hahahaha.....hilarious xD

Thanks sooo much!!! U help me too much!! From Equato Just one Question! when i apply mosaic effect its only give me vertical blocks and not horizontal, any suggestion?

Bro can u please upload that 100x100 comp? ❤️

may I ask what font do u use for your bumper intro?

Is there something I'm missing in his "unit"? It appears that the red square is the last frame and stays that way with the gradient in place. When I try in my project, I'm having to use a time remap loopOut expression on the repetile layer, and everything continues playing around it. Tried looking for expressions to pause to see if that would work but to no avail.

Also Nick is there any specific reason you applied the Time Displacement effect to an adjustment layer instead of directy applying it to the Pattern layer itself?

what's that search tool that pops up that you're using?

If the end result is what you're looking for you really should check out Cavalry :P

"I'm gonna pull my unit out" *snicker*

Sicky gnar gnar

W intro

I know this will sound dumb but how do you make the X shape? I see that it is a shape layer but I can't figure out how to make it. Can you help?

Go Canada! :)

Ok this is a great use of time displacement but here's my query: Notice how when you play the video, other than the time-displaced variance, they all eventually progress from circles to squares? How could we get that not to happen? In other words how could we get an animation that when played behaves the way things did when you were simply moving the gradient around? I've been chipping away at this problem of trying to get "absolute" time displacement rather than "relative" for honestly years now and I'll give a prize to anyone who can crack that nut. Thanks for the great tut!
