CURRENT UPDATE (16 Feb 2016):Added How To Morph PNG Images section!

Learn to morph between shapes, objects, or icons inside of After Effects. In the new lectures I also tech how to morph between *.PNG images and how you can make appealing video transitions with this technique. With this course I want you to learn how to properly work with shape layers and their paths. How to create those paths, import them from other programs like Illustrator or Photoshop and use them with a hanfull of tricks to be able to morph & transition between each other. We will be working of course in our favourite motion graphics software – Adobe After Effects.No matter which version you use, After Effects CS6 or After Effects CC I will outline the differences if any occur and it will be the perfect intro for you to jump into those programs.

Why This Course?

This course will take you by hand even if you are a total beginner. Some After Effects Courses are all about theory, they go several hours about every single feature there is, showing you what you can possibly do but not actualling completing a real life project, whilist here you are working on a REAL-LIFE example, you are instantly working inside the program alongside with me and learn the neccesary tools to finalize the project inside the class. After Effects is a very effective tool if you use all available tricks & techniques. The best part the price is very low as for an AE class and you only need 1 hour of time to complete the design!

Biggest Benefits of this class:

Learn a new motion animation in After Effects
Understand what the “First Vortex” is,
Learn to Convert Shapes into Paths,
Convert *.AI files into paths or track them,
Learn to work and populate After Effects Shape Layers,
Learn a morph effect between several shapes or icons,
Simple tricks like pre-composing, adding effects, keyframing included,
Get the concept of what a parametric shape and a bezier path shape is,
Learn AE CS6 and AE CC from the inside
…and so much more!

Make use of excellent software like after Effects is and use this technique for YouTube, Videos, Projects, Work for Your Clients and know more about motion design than you did before. What are you waiting for….Enroll now!
