Larry Jordan Powerup Series
Introduction to Apple Motion 5.x
You don’t need to be an incredible artist – or a programmer – to create interesting and useful effects using Apple Motion. Fundamentally, all motion graphics are simply things that move. It is the movement that makes them special.
In this session, Larry Jordan starts at the very beginning and walks you through a variety of projects that you can use everyday to animate your work. Specifically:
- How to create a Motion project
- How to add and format text
- How to animate text
- How to animate background elements
- How to create a full-screen infographic background
- How to move a Motion project into Final Cut
- How to revise a Motion project stored in Final Cut
If you are new to motion graphics – or thought you needed to be an artist to do anything useful in Motion – this session is for you.
AUDIENCE LEVEL
This is a beginning-level session. No knowledge of Motion is necessary in order to benefit from this. All you need to watch is a web browser.
Registration is FREE! Everyone is welcome!!
Time: 9:00 AM PST | 12:00 PM EST AND 12:00 PM PST | 3:00 PM EST
