Keyframes

This week we continued looking at essential tools in after effects, covering the basic and more advanced methods of keyframing.

Our first task was to create a rolling can using the given assets. This required the knowledge of the transform tools we picked up last week and then combining them with the new skills of keyframing we would be learning this week. The method of using keyframes was very straight forwards.

The second task we to create a working clock using the given assets. I edited around with the assets in Photoshop to create a different personal exercise by changing the frame colour and clock background and then imported it into After Effects. In this task, we covered more keyframes and their editing effects (ease in and ease outs, toggle hold keyframes and linear interpolations), simple shapes, and anchor points.
