Composition Menu |
Using the composition menu, allowed me to open a new composition, in which I could begin to make an animation, through this menu I can change the settings of the composition, such as frame rate, ratio and background colour.
Using the layer menu, allowed me to create a shape layer, which would hold basic shapes that I would later animate. The other layer options allow you to add text, perspective and level editing to the composition.
Transform options |
The Transform drop down option, allows you to actually move the object in the layer using key points, to determine when the movement starts and finishes.
- Anchor Point - Moving the Anchor Point of the object determines what angle the shape will rotate and move, when using the rest of the transform points.
- Position - This changes the location of the object, making it move from one side to the other, regarding the location of the last point.
- Scale - This increases or decreases the size of the object with in the layer, which changes gradually over the space between the start and end point.
- Rotation - Moves the shape in the angle you set, and repeats more than once if set.
- Opacity - Changes the transparency of the object, good for fading the shape into black.
