Hey guys! I get a lot of people asking about why the twinkling stops about 16 seconds in. I made a fix for this which you can find here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bq9leMZ8zb28YIE.html Hope that helps! ❤️

In case anyone can't find the "Screen" option for the Glowing Stars layer, click on the 3 horizontal bars next to his "Night Sky", mouse over "Columns" and enable "Modes"

It's not exactly what I wanted to do, but it's very similar. Thank you very much for this tutorial :)

Man, you don't know how grateful I am right now! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I´m starting my career on animation! Loved your tutorial! Congrat´s!

Thank you saved me a lot of time trying to browse videos for an actual working one

A cool trick I've used to get a more realistic camera shake is to track a static point in a video and then apply that track data to the still footage. This basically applys real camera shake to something that wasn't recorded with a camera.

This tutorial really helped me out with a project! Thanks for taking the time to make it. It's really well done!

This helped me for an intro to a wedding video. Thanks man. Amazing tutorial.

Perfect! Just what I needed for this project!Great job

Came to find out how to do stars. Such a coincidence it was you!

really cool. I'd use Levels instead of Curves though.

Great tutorial John. What i found, that in my composition "Overlay blending mode " gives better, cleaner result. Chears!

If you want longer twinkles the expression provided by Jony without the extra clicks: freq = 2000; amplitude = 16000; m = amplitude; i = time*freq; m - (i % (2*m) - m); It uses a saw wave to reset the values so they stay below 90 and don't cause issues.

best method for twinkling stars , thanks a lot.

very nice - thank you. I have some footage I want to do this for just a section so this will come in very handy

Hey! Just wanted to say Thank you for this tutorial! I used the fix as well and my preview looks great. Only one problem, for some reason the twinkling stars do not render/export! When you rendered your project, how did you do it to keep the twinkling stars?

Awesome bro thank you so much its really helpful for my project thanks a lot

Muchas Gracias ✨ me funcionó efectivamente! 💛

Merci beaucoup !

Please I need help, I have no idea why while previewing the twinkle works just fine but when I render the twinkle is not there...is it because I use 3d layers?

Really nice tutorial man! Do more videos!

Great video thank so much ! i learned a lot ! but i didn't understand what is the grey solid at the end ?

Thank you. This is a great video .1000%

Fantastic!

Awesome video man! Super high production value. Keep making videos and the following will come :-)

Do you have any tutorial of a spinning diamond or jewelry with twinkling star glow applied? Any thoughts of Trapcode Star Glow filter available for Adobe Aftereffects? I'm a noob in Aftereffects but want to achieve a star like glow on jewelry video and wanted to know the best ways to do it

Wow, great tutorial! I needed this for a student film. Great integration method. I do feel like the "twinkling" is a little too strong, but you may have done that so it stands out more.

Very Nice! Thank you!

nicely done!!

Thank you brotha

Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. will it work on PSD ?

Thank u

thanks dude, love you

Thanks everyone for the support! ❤️ I've been crazy busy but I am starting to work on my next videos!

Great tutorial!

great tutorial!

Does this work only with a dark sky? I am trying to have a twinkling star effect on a rather light purple and orange sky, but the twinkle map animation is showing through too much.

hi- Great video, thank you. How can you slow down the rate of the twinkling ?

Very usefull, also for scifi space-scenes. thank you.

Hi there! How dod you export this with the twinkles? We're struggling!

Jony, Jony...thanks! Sweet tutorial!

Thanks for the tutorial! It really helped me out! :)

Thank you very much, UR MY GOD

thank you very much bro

Thanks for this. cool expressions. 02:25 map: +time*2000. Wiggle cam at 04:00

great video but you need to do an updated version for AE 2024. This doesn't seem to apply anymore.

Very helpful! Thanks so much dude! One question though, what expression would you use here if you wanted the evolution on the turbulent noise to increase infinitely or in a seamless loop?

Great Tutorial, hope you will grow :) IF ANYONE WANT MUCH MORE TWINKELING STARS JUST USE COLOR DOGE BLEND MODE

for some reason, I am having trouble mapping luma map with 2023 after effects. I clicked on screen and then track matte to Twinkle Map (Luma) but it still shows up the big white and black solid

Awesome!!

thanks!

thanks for the help!

Very useful!

very nice!

VERY COOL!

THANNNNKSSS!! VERY MUCH!!

I’m having same problem as poster below. Everything works until I get to the changing Mode and Tracker on Starry Night layer (middle layer). First, I notice when you changed Mode to Screen, your original picture showed. That did not happen with me. After changing Track Matte to Luma, Starry Night layer was not twinkling. Bottom layer doesn’t twinkle. The only thing fluctuating is Twinkle Map layer.

1:17: after effect twinkle star effect

Did exactly as you showed, and after I added the twinkle layer, my stars didn't twinkle. The twinkle map moves when shown by itself... after I set the Glowing Stars layer to Screen and Luna Matte [Twinkle Map], my stars do not twinkle. I'm not sure if I did something wrong. Please respond when you get a chance, Thank you.

A fucking HERO

thanks bro

Is there any app that can do the trick but customized (not all over the pic) I don’t know how to use after effects plz

It's not working when I add the screen to the glowing stars and then the track matte option I don't see the same options as you. I don't see Alpha Matte, Alpha Inverted Matte, Luma Matte, or Luma Inverted. I just see None, Twinkle Map, Glowing. I'm on the latest version 2023

Perfect! Fanx!

This was super duper helpful! I'll link you to the project it helped me with once it's out (:

Hey Jony, my image has bright lights, and not all my stars show up when I do the curve adjustment

bruh this shit saved me a ton of time saviour!!!

When i set the blending mode to screen on the Glowing Stars layer, nothing happens, so i tried randomly selecting another blend mode and i'm finding none of them work on that layer, would you happen to know what i'm doing wrong? Great video btw.
