Détails de la leçon

Description de la leçon

In this detailed tutorial, you will learn how to animate a logo using After Effects and Illustrator. The lesson begins by leveraging an automatically created precomposition from importing a Photoshop file. You will discover how to manage and format layers efficiently in Illustrator, ensuring that each element of your logo is on an independent layer for easier animation. The tutorial then guides you through importing these layers into After Effects, where you will animate various elements such as circles and text. Special attention is given to maintaining vector integrity through continuous rasterization and enhancing animation dynamics using keyframes and the graph editor.
Additionally, you will learn to save and reuse animations by creating preset animations, effectively streamlining your workflow. This comprehensive guide ensures that by the end of the lesson, you will be proficient in animating logos using advanced techniques in After Effects and Illustrator.
