After Effects: Motion Graphic

Motion Graphic

                                                                A Teacher Explaining Mathematics
Our task is to create a short ten second clips in After Effect for each workshop and they will all be different workshops exploring different areas and themes.Some of the themes are visual but also motion. A loop is a motion. Then at the end it will be 30 seconds showing each of my clips throughout the year. The tasks were given is working towards the placement level, so i will be more than ready for an industry by the end of the year.

I used Illustrator to design my quick character ‘Teacher’, with simple 7 layers that includes hair, head, white shirt, red tie, suit, hand and brown trousers. As you can see my character resembles a business man too and that is because he was inspired from a business man but as time went on i found really a good textures that suited each other which convinced me to go for a teacher appearance instead.  I created these layers separately so can then later utilise and manipulate them on After Effect; they will have more of a great effect. The image then was imported on After Effect, i made sure to click ‘composition retain layer’ and click off ‘eps sequence’ because this will allow me to play with each later. The composition width of 1920 and height 1080 with the frame rate ’25’ and 10 seconds.

It,s my first time to use Ae, I really do not know how to make the work. It's very hard for me, so the process of work is no clearly. I just try to make it.
