Updates coming soon

I’ve been so busy recently that this site has been neglected. In a way the website’s success was it’s own downfall as I got so busy with client work that I had no time to update it. Well updates are on their way!

Nothing to compare to the excellent videocopilot.net, more like how to transfer what you already know to AE.

So yeah, all that coming soon.
