Motion Graphics with After Effects

Overview

Motion graphics bring ideas, words and designs to life. This two-week, hands-on course teaches you to animate in Adobe After Effects, from your first composition to a finished video. Over 10 teaching days, learners develop one short motion graphics piece from a script or brief to a finished video, building skills in animation, timing, typography and kinetic text.

Week 1 covers the After Effects workspace, keyframe animation, timing and easing, typography in motion and kinetic animation. Week 2 goes further with nulls and curves, the 3D camera, turning a script into motion, bringing still graphics to life, and creating content for social media. The course suits anyone who wants to produce animated content for real work.
