OUGD504 Studio Brief 02 - After Effects Workshop 1

After Effects Workshop 1:
After effects is a completely new program to me, and initially I have found it hard to get my head around. What has become clear is how time consuming it can be, but more and more practice will definitely help. This will be good to use for the current brief designing for screen as I will be able to mock up animated effects to make it clear what I am trying to produce.

Notes:

Composition - New

Preset - PAL D1/DV Widescreen square pixel (recommended)

Frame Rate - 25

New layer - solid

Similar icons to photoshop

Key frame - value within animation - it tells you what and where things are exactly in the position.

P = moves position

Click stopwatch

Move blue slider and then move object where you want in time

Can edit motion path with pen tool

S = scale

T = opacity

R = rotation

The distance between key frames is the speed

Composition settings - allows change

U = brings up all key frames

Exporting - H.264
