Résumé

The Apple-Certified Way to Learn

The introduction of Apple's Motion brought sophisticated visual effects within the reach of more people than ever before. Suddenly there's a new generation of graphic artists coming fresh not just to the software, but to the field of motion graphics.

This Apple-certified guide is designed to make motion graphics accessible to newcomers. Author Mary Plummer starts with the fundamentals of motion graphics, introducing the basics of building a layered composite and bringing still images to life. Each lesson builds on the last as you master behaviors, particles, filters, and animated text, and move on to Timeline editing, audio mixing, and precision animation with keyframes. You'll work on more than a dozen real-world projects, including the intro for a photographer's portfolio DVD, an animated company logo, a TV news bumper, and a commercial ad spot. Along the way, you'll master fantastic visual effects and techniques that will help you build stunning motion graphics projects of your own.
