LECTURES

We got a lecture related to using Adobe After Effects that is related to using keyframes and creating a really simple animation by manipulating individual layers and images.


TUTORIAL

2. Import the W10_ANIMATE.psd into Adobe After Effects.

3. Create a composition setting 1080 px (Width) x 1920 px (Height), Duration 15 second

4. Create a keyframe animation to the layers using Position (P), Scale (S) & Masking path.

5. Render output: Quicktime (.MOV) or .MP4

6. Upload your exercise into your Youtube Channel.

7. Update your progress and video to your E-Portfolio blog. 

8. Attach your E-Portfolio link on this Submission.



PRACTICAL

I started by making new folders and naming them for their purpose, after that i imported the Adobe Photoshop file.







Next i changed the composition so that it is proper and then gave the circle layers a rotation and position keyframe. I made them spin 360 degrees and made them go up and down.






I also gave an opacity keyframe to the fish so that it would go transparent and after that i am done.










REFLECTION

I didn't have any experience related to After Effects prior to starting this exercise, so I was quite confused, but then after seeing how the keyframes work, it is quite similar to Adobe Premiere, which is something that I have used quite a lot in the past.
