Can u make a video explaining the graph editor. I am intimidated by it. I find it confusing. Maybe u could record a video of u animating some stuff and then showing how it is reflected in the graph editor
Woooh this one was a true banger RobynO! Can agree on all these points, so many people stick with the basic simp keyframes :D We want more of these, and dope hair 🌋🌋👌
Totally agree! Also Clean up your photoshop and Illustrator files before you even bring them in just to save yourself some time and effort! House keeping so so important. most of all if you have to hand your projects over to another person or need to come back to it months later. So good to see you start your parteon! YAY! :D
totally man, so annoying when you bring in a file from PS or AI and there's a) a bunch of crap you don't need and b) a million unnamed layers. Thanks dude! Yeah I thought it's time to just see how it goes !
There is one thing that everybody is missing. It is THE LOGIC of the things. You add it and I like it. As far as the 12 principles, you can find it in 1000 videos on it. What I can not find is on 5:00. That is WHY did you add things like motion lines, flower around the panda and couple of other things. I mean, it is easy to make those things in AI and add them to AE. The problem is what to add, when to add and why to add it, what timing/spacing will it have etc. As a plastic example I will use (as always Peppa): Like, we all know why Peppa jumps into the puddles. Thing is when she jumps, how to lead to it, how much water should splash, how much screen shatter, will there be a motion blur, will her face turn into a flower as the panda face did (bad example). Let's say, will the water splash be in a shape of a flower and of what color and what will it mean. Will that splash be in a shape of motion lines coming out of paddle and forming love sign. This may be a bit of a stretch for Peppa, but in motion design there are lines all over it and I can not figure why. All I can see is that they look nice. There is no place we can find why things are done, only how. I would love to see more on your take on why you do things in your motion design. We already have 1000 videos on 12 principles already and ... (I wrote 500 words here, have a good day, go outside everybody. Cheers)
You make some really good points and I totally agree. I'll do my best to cover topics that are not that well covered yet, so that I'm not just repeating stuff that's already been said a million times over somewhere else. I get what you're saying about not understanding when certain visual techniques and devices should be used, and the right circumstances for their use, and it's a valid point because it is difficult to find any sort of resources explaining things like that. So I will make a note of it and make sure to cover it in a video. Thanks for the feedback as always! I appreciate your comments and viewpoints!
"get.your.shit.together" killed me 😂 Great tips as always, I appreciate the sassy accusations. Also, it's been really nice to see your channel growing lately, congrats on that! Might want to consider putting a link to your Patreon in the video description though, I tried to search for it through Patreon and you didn't come up in the results.
😂 thanks , I always wonder if I'm a bit much but I get so riled up sometimes I can't help it . Thank you, it's been quite an experience, this whole youtuber thing 😅 thanks so much for the support and nice comments! and thanks for the tip, I was in such a hurry to post on time that I totally didn't even think of that but I've updated it now ! 🌻
@@RobynO_O No worries! I forget those little things all the time haha. If there's one thing I've learned from content creation, putting your personality in your videos is key. That's what keeps your viewers watching you, no matter what the content is. Keep being you, it works 👌
Just found your channel tonight! Great content keep it up and I think people should really take your advice from this one. Simple things can make a huge difference in productions.
I'm excited to get into learning motion graphics, and I have a feeling I'll be referencing this video often. (P.S. you look super adorable with the space buns!!)
How often shall I practice animation if I wanna see a lot of progress. I am new to motion design... And I just wanna do it as a hobby tbh.. not a career really. But I would like to make better art. "Putting down keyframes and hoping for the best" is kinda what I do mostly haha
I loved this video! I'm really new to this, but I'll definitely put these tips to use! I had no idea that some tools (like the sun-looking one) were even there. It would be super cool if you ever do a lesser-known tools in after effects video... Thanks for your content ! I learn something new everytime
Super video. Think you should do a video on what processes to cut when on a budget and a tight deadline. Might have beginners breaking themselves trying to fulfill all these criteria. If the client isn't paying for the time, curves and easing are definitely the first to go in my workflow, followed by the 12 principles. Always keep overlap, timing, pace, and rhythm. Also, remember the client's brand, the 12 principles might not compliment their look. Agree on the static images, even a 5% zoom/scale (I call a "moving hold"). Done correctly, a blank frame can be used to accentuate a change/point, but should be super brief, complemented by the music, and doesn't seem to work as well if it isn't black. Order and structure... Starting from the folders on the drive to the layers in your imaging software, bins in your editors, objects and scenes in your 3d software, etc... order... order... order... so much time gets wasted figuring out what a previous artist did on a project. Once spent 2 full days sifting through 6 drives looking for shots used in a 7 minute edit a previous editor botched.

You're right, there are things that need to go out the window when there's a really tight budget or limiting deadline. If you don't tweak the curves in the graph editor I'd at least then use the keyframe assistant and still apply easy ease. I think some of the 12 principles are still important, like arcs in certain movements, and that's easy enough to do with just the bezier handles in the composition. So it's really up to the discretion of the animator and the output they're wanting to achieve. It could be looked at from a workflow perspective, and you'd leave out the last steps of workflow such as refinement if you were on a tight deadline or budget. But there are also other ways of meeting short deadlines and budgets and a lot of it would be addressed in the development stage, creating a more simplistic look and feel and supporting the simplified animation with designs and a motion treatment that compliment it. There should be give and take - if you want top notch animation, the run time of the video should be shortened to accommodate that and still fit in the budget, or other ways of balancing quality and tight budget/time.

Do you do any tutorials with downloadable projects to follow along with? I'm new to this, it would be really helpful. 🙂
I haven't yet unfortunately but I have been planning to, it's just a struggle for time to make the assets along with the video

So underrated.. Thanks for the guidance!

Actually. Looking at that image again. Looks like there were more than 6 drives. Age and memory :\

@@pulseworkssa that seems like a truly awful job to work on. I hate working on other people's files because of such things.
