After Effects Induction 2

For this Tutorial, we were given several assets to work with. The Teacher gave us instructions on how to use them, and we were given a tutorial on how to do it. We were also shown how to give our assets parent animations and make them follow different assets. I decided to do a part of the project slightly different and the teacher said he would see how it looked when it was done. After he said that what I tried was a success and it looked good in addition to the rest of the project. This induction was really interesting as well as fun.

After Effects Induction 1

Today we learned how to use the basics of After Effects. We learned how to do basic transitions using different effects like opacity, position, rotation, scale, and anchor points. We also learned how to use the shortcut buttons for all of these assets. We used shape layers and made squares move around the screen in various ways. We also learned how to highlight parts of our animation and focus in on that part to edit. Since I've never actually used After Effects before this, this was a good introduction to how it works. I hope the next induction is just as informative, if not more so.
