usually considered to be one part of
the post production process — other
post-production tasks include titling,
colour correction, sound mixing, etc

What is Video Editing

Software?

Video editing software enables users to create, edit, and modify video files
digitally. With video editing software, users can manipulate and arrange video files
to create new works. Video editing software can also provide tools for video

What is motion graphics?
Motion graphics are a type of
multimedia that combines
graphic design, animation, and
video editing to create motion
pictures. Motion graphics are
often used in advertising,
television, and film. They can
be used to create the illusion of
motion or to inform and
educate [Link] that
move are called motion
graphics. Motion graphics are used to create the illusion of motion in an image.
Motion graphics can be used to create titles, animate text, or add movement to
images. They can be used for advertising, films, television, or any other type of
multimedia project. Motion graphics are usually created using a combination of
video and digital media to create the illusion of motion. One way that motion
graphics are created is to use a computer animation program. Motion graphics are
then made by animating the various elements of the graphic.

What software is used for motion graphics?

When it comes to motion
graphics, there are a variety of
software options that can be
used. Some of the most popular
software programs for motion
graphics include Adobe After
Effects, Apple Motion, and
Cinema 4D. Each of these
programmes has its own
strengths and weaknesses, so it’s
important to choose the programme that is best suited for the specific project you
are working on.

Creating a New
Composition
A composition is the framework
for a movie. Each composition
has its own timeline, with
multiple layers that can
represent video and audio
footage, animated text and
vector graphics, still images,
and lights. Knowing how to
properly set up your
composition will make your
project workflow a little faster. You will need to have some advanced
planning. For example, you need to know what you want your composition
size to be and how long you want the video to be. The following will show
you how to setup and create a new composition for your project.
1. Click Composition>New Composition
2. The Composition Settings window will appear.
a. Composition Name – This is where you name your project
b. Preset – This is the format that you will export your project as.
c. Width and Height – Setting the width and height will set the dimensions of
your project, the amount of working space that you will have to work with.
d. Duration – This will be the length that you want your composition to be
e. Background Color – This is the color of the background of your working space
3. Once you have entered in
all of your composition
settings, click OK
 After Effects in Motion Graphics
The Pillars of motion graphics are Position , Rotation , Scale and Opacity
We Will Explain what are They and How They are Used In This Section

1. Position is the location of a layer in the composition. You can change the position
of a layer by dragging it in the Composition window. You can also use
the Position property in the Transform panel to specify the position of a layer in
terms of its X and Y coordinates.
2. Scale is the size of a layer. You can change the scale of a layer by dragging the
corner points of the layer in the Composition window. You can also use
the Scale property in the Transform panel to specify the scale of a layer in terms of
its X and Y scale factors.
3. Rotation is the angle of a layer. You can rotate a layer by dragging the rotation
handle in the Composition window. You can also use the Rotation property in
the Transform panel to specify the rotation of a layer in terms of its angle in
degrees.
4. Anchor point is the point around which a layer is transformed. By default, the
anchor point is the center of the layer. However, you can move the anchor point to
any other location in the layer. This can be useful for creating animations where
the layer rotates around a different point.

Here are some additional tips for using position, scale, rotation, and anchor point in
After Effects:

• Use keyframes to animate the position, scale, rotation, or anchor point of a layer.
Keyframes allow you to specify the value of a property at different points in time.
This is the most common way to create animations in After Effects.
• Use expressions to create more complex animations. Expressions are mathematical
formulas that can be used to control the properties of your layers. This can be used
to create more complex animations that would be difficult or impossible to create
using keyframes alone.
• Use the Preview panel to preview your animation. The Preview panel allows you
to preview your animation in real time. This is a great way to test your animation
and make sure that it looks the way you want it to.
After effects – Animation Basics :
- Create a New Composition

Now you will be able to see your DEMO layer in the layer panel and you will be
able to see it in your composition preview window.
Next, start by flipping
the small triangle next
to your layer name
down. This will open
up your transform
option tab–if you click
the triangle
on Transform you
will now see all the
basic values you can
adjust or animate.

Anchor Point (Key Command “A”)

Your anchor point is a position from which all scaling, rotating, and positional
movement controls occur. If your anchor point is dead center, your layer will rotate
and move from that point. If your anchor point has been moved to a true corner of
your layer, then when you scale or rotate your layer, it will rotate from this new
anchor point. This is very useful when you are making multiple layers all rotate
from a single point.
Position (Key Command “P”)
Position is one of the most commonly used transform controls. The tool strictly
adjusts the vertical (Y) or horizontal (X) position of your layer. When working in
3D space, you can also adjust the Z-axis position, which pushes layers back or
forward toward the camera.

Scale (Key Command “S”)

Scale is measured by two values, x and y or width and height. By default the scale
is set to keep it’s original ratio. However, if you want to adjust a single side of your
solid or layer separately, you will need to deactivate the lock between the two. You
can do this by clicking on the small (link) icon next to the “100.0%, 100.0%.” This
will now make each side an individual value. Animating the scale of a layer can be
used to create a logo or image that appears to be moving toward you or away from
you.
Opacity (Key Command “T”)
Opacity is simply the amount of opacity–or translucence–the layer has. 100% is
fully opaque and 0% means the layer is completely invisible or fully transparent.

Rotation (Key Command “R”)

Rotation is a great way to add subtle movement to layers and solids.
