After Effects

During last week we began our latest work in adobe after effects. This serves as as introduction (or reintroduction) to the kinds of motion and special effects that we can get via using the software. Many of us have used the program in pre-production class in previous semesters, but even those of us who have may need some reminders as to how it works.

Our project is to make an animated scene of a cat. It jumps across the screen with a flip and get struck by lightning. Then an animated title comes into being on the screen. We are achieving these effects via the transform, opacity and masking controls, as well as some built-in effects.
