Have you ever meditated on a piece of animation you saw on the internet and wondered, why my animation skills are far from that goodness? I did. Until I dived into the science behind good movements and started to learn the secret sauce of a well crafted animation.
This class will teach you the principles behind the “OH GOSH” animation and how you can harness them in after effects.
The principles are universal, so that you can apply them in any software.
The class is divided into two parts. The first part I teach the principles with an exercise to do at the end of each lesson to practice what you’ve learned. The second part is where I start creating the class project. I’ll be showing you how I approach complex animation and how I manage and organize the workflow.
To get the most out of this class you should be able to create basic animations in After Effects and be comfortable with using the software’s interface.
In this class you’ll learn:
- The Basics of After Effects
- The Timing and Spacing
- How to use Value Graph
- Bonus Video ( parenting, matts and using nulls )
- How to use Speed Graph
- Using Oscillation
- Anticipation & Overshooting
- The Bounce
- Follow Through
- Squash and Stretch
- Secondary Animation
