Hi, do the photoshop action and motion kit still work on the latest versions of photoshop and AE? (Specifically on Macbook M1)
Hello. Yes, everything works in all the latest versions of AE and Photoshop!
Hi, I have a quick question. Does this script (and the Shimmer Motion Kit) work in the latest versions of After Effects and Photoshop?
Yes it does! If you run into any issues please let us know! And I apologize for the slow reply, I was away for Thanksgiving and am just getting to my emails now.
Hi… I keep getting:
Script Alert Effects error: Unable to call “setValueAtTime” because if parameter 2. Value 0.07 out of range 0 to 0.03. Error on line: 2123
I have a screenshot of you need.
It seemed to have exported all right from Photoshop.
Hello. I just replied to your email and it seems like you got this sorted out, but if you need anything else let me know!
Thank you for the quick response! Yes, I ran the action on Photoshop wrong.
Hi, the plug-in work in text mode but when can I try to use Freezframe mode not work. When select the png sequences in after effect the results not show me a video clip but only paper texture.
Hello. Can you send over some screenshots to support@thomaskovar.com, as I’m not sure specifically what could be causing this without more info or seeing what’s happening within AE.
Hello I purchased realpaint and watercollarFX, but the work stopped in the same process every time. realpaint Lage brush 01 (A) watercollarFX dark_tone_brush_temp Working environment is win10 Photoshop2020, English version, FX box use.
Hello. It looks like you purchased Watercolor Motion Kit, but you are having difficulty with another product, RealPaint and Watercolor FX.
I’m happy to offer support for my product, but for the product you’re referring to I’m not the author, so I’m not going to be able to help out on that one.
I must sincerely apologize. I have purchased the “Watercolor Motion Kit”, but this doesn’t work either.
No problem at all. What is the issue you’re having with Watercolor Motion Kit? Is it within After Effects, or within Photoshop? If you’re receiving an error, let me know what the error is saying so I can better help troubleshoot the issue!
Hello Thomas very good script ! but i have just a problem with freeze frame in after effect when i want to import with ” create freezeframe” my clip is already changed this is not like the tutorial when the dancer change frame after frame to have final result. for me it’s the final result at the begining
Hello. I’m happy to help out, but I don’t see a verified purchased icon by your username, and only offer support for specific questions (non-presale questions) if a user has a verified purchase.
hi thomas, Can I change background color brown to others?
Hello. Yes, you can! The quickest way to do that is to go to the “Color Correction” layer (layer 9), and in the Effect Controls Panel, change the color of the the “Overall Color Tint”.
Next, go to the “Background Textures” layer (layer 15) and change the “Base Color”.
Give that a try and let me know if that does the trick!
Hello again, when I introduce de png image in After effect, there is an arror “Unable to finde Crosshatch-3.png, how can i fix it? Thanks
Hello. That error is typically caused by not installing the “(Motion Kit Assets)” folder properly.
Double check that you have placed that folder in the ScriptUI Panels folder. Also check if you have checked the checkbox in your preferences for “Allow scripts to write files and access network”. Then try restarting AE.
If it’s still giving you the error, can you send a screenshot of your ScriptUI Panels folder to support@thomaskovar.com and I’ll look into it right away!
ok I’ve just wrote you an email
please I really need to fix my problem today, could you please check your email? thank you very much
Hello, I just replied to your email, let me know if that solves the issue!
hello, when i run de kit exporter there is a massage that says “the command If is not currently available so i cant export any image, could you help me?
Hello. This error is typically caused by using a version of Photoshop prior to CS6.1, which is not supported when running the Motion Kit Exporter.
If you are using a version of Photoshop that is newer than CS6.1, let me know and we’ll get to the bottom of it right away!
I am using de Photoshop CS6…how can i fix it?
Hello. You will need to upgrade to Adobe Photoshop CS6.1. or newer for this feature to work, as there was a crucial feature added in CS6.1 (the “IF” command) that is essential for the expression to run properly.
ok! thank you very much
Hi Thomas,
I love your Motion Kit. I can’t wait to use it but I have a subscription for PS CC2019 and can’t figure out how to make it work.
You say: CC2019 Users – Please change the Expression Engine to “Legacy ExtendScript” or you will receive expression errors (File > Project Settings > Expressions > Legacy ExtendScript). We will be fixing this in the next official update, but for now please use this as a temporary solution.
But I can’t find “Project Settings” under File. Could you send me to the right place please?
Thanks so much, Christiane Witt
(I’ve sent you an email with an attachment as well)
Hey Christiane, that’s actually referring to the After Effects portion of the product – if you’re having troubles within Photoshop, just reach out at support@thomaskovar.com and let me know what’s happening and we’ll get to the bottom of it right away!
Hi Thomas, The reveal brush in photoshop is not working for me. Can i get help?
Hello. Can you send me screenshots of the issue to support@thomaskovar.com. I’m not sure exactly what’s happening but we’ll get to the bottom of it right away!
Can I use different water color action to use this motion kit?
Hello! Unfortunately no, the only one supported is the one included with the product.
is it possible to not use watercolor action for this motion kit? because the image I wanna work on is already watercolor painted, so I do not need watercolor action. Or is there a way to disable watercolor action in after effects?
I changed the photoshop layers after I ran the watercolor action. I only changed the opacity, I am trying to customize the look of the image on photoshop then export it after effects. I did not change the name of the layers or deleted them and I successfully got 30 images.
https://gyazo.com/bcde974071f74d929be46dcc01823b42this is the final look that I want.
However after the images are exported to After Effects, it disregards the changes and goes back to the original image set that was created by watercolor action set.
https://gyazo.com/3db6c88d2f8b82b51dbdc7b01604a244just like this.
Can you help me to solve this problem? All I want is to make sure that the final video looks like the image from the photoshop
Hello. The way the project is set up, within After Effects some of the adjustment layers have to be re-created (for example, some of the adjustment parameters of hue/saturation are not available in AE that are available within Photoshop), and those parameters will not transfer over from Photoshop to After Effects, which is we have to re-create them in AE and why I only suggest in the tutorial to do any masking within Photoshop, all other effects (curves, colors adjustments etc) should be adjusted within AE.
fantastic effects
Hello, i have ensured i installed everything correctly in photoshop and i’m still getting an error message when i go to run the play command. It says “the command select is not currently available.” can you please help!!!

Hello. I have a problem with import the Motion kit files. I did like in the video tutorial and after i open AE- window i cant find the motion kit assets or the watercolor mapp. I have copiet thefiles in to C:\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CC 2018\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels I have no Mac version. I saw there is one more file in the windows version: called .DS_Store
I looked at the file Watercolor Motion Kit.jsxbin who came with the download and this file is blank dokument (white) no symbol like in the preview video
I think the Watercolor Motion Kit.jsxbin file needs to be updated. Like it is cant work in the ScriptUI panels mapp without been adapted in the main user interface for use in a dockable panel

Hi, I’m using photoshop 2018, I can’t find the option replace brushes anywhere in this version
Can you help me?
Hello. I’m not exactly sure what you’re having difficulty with, as the brushes just need to be imported. Can you send screenshots of the issue to support@thomaskovar.com and I’ll take a look!
Hi Thomas, I would like to purchase the motion kit and use it to create moving banners for our architecture practise website on square space. Can I export it as a GIF? Regards, Kris
Hi Kris, yes – what you would do is render out the results within After Effects as a video file, then export out that video file through Photoshop or another application that exports GIFs.
If you have any other questions, message me anytime.
Hello I need your help I bought this Kit a couple of hours ago When I run the action on AE the background is red Is there a way to change it? Thank you
info: AE CC 2015
Hello. Just to clarify, are the results from Photoshop correct, it’s just when you import them into After Effects you are getting a red background? Can you send screenshots to support@thomaskovar.com and I’ll get to the bottom of it right away.
Hello, Thank you for the reply Yes, it’s only when I import into AE. I sent an email with 3 screen shots.
I really love your Kit
