Spinning Orbs 2
1.Firstly a new solid layer was created with a fractal noise effect applied to it. A circular mask was applied and edge feather was increased. 2.Then the scale was adjusted and the evolution of the noise was key-framed so it spun. Brightness, contrast and colour levels were modified to desired effect. 3.An adjustment layer was then added with a radial blur to give the spinning effect a more enhanced look. Colour levels were adjusted with this layer. 4. This was then pre-composed and placed ...
12 Video Wall 2
1.Firstly, images from a fruit machine were taken into Photoshop, resized and saved as twelve separate images of the same size. These were imported into After Effects. 2.Then using rulers and guides on Photoshop, a grid image was created of a 4x3 table with a white background and black rounded rectangles. This was saved as a PSD file and imported into After Effects. 3.The grid image was placed on the composition and since it was saved as a PSD, each rounded rectangle was saved as an ...
11 - Text Animation
1.An image of a playground was imported into After Effects. 2.A text layer was then applied and the text was styled and positioned in place at the top right. It was key-framed to adjust the letters to be randomized and then make sense several frames into the animation. 3.A second text layer was added along a path created by the mask pen tool to appear to come out from a slide. To make it disappear from behind the slide entrance, the playground layer was duplicated and a mask was applied ...
10 - Path Text
1.An image was imported into After Effects with a text layer placed on top. The text was adjusted to suit the composition and applied along a curve path. 2.A second text layer was added to the composition. Using the mask pen tool, a path was drawn out following lines on the background image. The text was applied to the path and the left margin was once again key-framed so the start and end positions of the text were at either sides of the frame. 3.When played back, the text moves along the ...
8 - Basic Text
1.A solid colour layer was added to the composition and a text layer was added on top. 2.Changing the values for size, tracking, leading as well as colour, font type and other options, amended the text. 3.Positional key-frames were then added to slide the text up the page along with an audio score for effect.
9 - Jitter Text
1.A solid layer colour was added along with a text layer. The font type size colour and other parameters were chosen. 2.Using the mask pen tool, a path was drawn for the text to follow and the text was applied to the path. The left-margin was key-framed to change the start and end position of the text to give the effect of it moving along the path. 3.Next, the jitter values for the text were key-framed along with tracking to create text that animated in a totally un-controlled manner while ...
7 - Spaceship Layers
1.Using Photoshop, the images of the spaceship, stars and Jupiter were created. These were saved as PSD files and imported into After Effects onto a new composition. 2.The Jupiter layer was key-framed so its scale started to the planet filled the screen and then several frames into the animation; we had zoomed out to reveal the entire planet. Motion blur was added to this. 3.A background image of stars was added and this too was key-framed to scale out to give the effect of depth in the ...
6 - Motion Sketching 2
1.Using Photoshop a racetrack and a racecar were created and saved as PSD files. These were then imported into After Effects with the racecar as the top layer. 2.The car was scaled to fit the track and rotated to face the correct direction. Using the motion capture tool and the mouse, a course along the track for the car to follow was created and saved. 3.The Smoother tool was applied to the path and final amendments were made using the Bezier curve handles to make sure the car did not come ...
