Today, we're finally releasing NoSolids for After Effects. I haven't made a solid or seen that stupid folder in 5 years! And it's FREE. The first 50 people to get it on Element Supply Co. can get the look template for the thumbnail, aka Gritch, $2 off.

About 5 years ago, I banished the Solids folder from all of my After Effects projects using this script. And now you can too!

Our studio turned 10 years old this year. We've got actionable advice to share! Here's what we've learned.

Yellow Dog Party is now ten years old. In all of that time of doing business, I’ve learned a lot. I learned some of these things early in my career, and some of them I’ve only recently put into practice. They all would’ve helped me immensely and so I’m sharing them with you so that you can h...
