Motion graphics, which we often call MG animation, are simply graphic animation and dynamic graphics. The following small series talks about what problems should be paid attention to when making MG animation with AE.

1. Be sure to open the subtitles/activity safety box. This box is the active reference range. If you don't open it in advance, some elements and materials will be on the side when you do it, and you don't know it yet. Maybe you're not around, but the video you're playing is around. So we must pay attention to this problem.

2, there are many combinations and materials, which will be very card to play. (This has a lot to do with computer configuration)

It is suggested that friends turn down the resolution when playing, so that they will not be particularly stuck. Look at the effect quickly and make the next plan.

Sometimes a shot has a lot of material and composition, which looks particularly troublesome. After the animation, you can package the material into one, with the shortcut key Shift+Ctrl+C, or you can double-click the packaged composition to enter the composition and do animation.

4, do MG animation, may use a lot of material, some material can do it yourself, some material can be found on the Internet, but in any case, and to set up several folders to put these materials, whether it is source material or pictures, video material, should be put away, don't change the position, so as not to lose the material.

5. If you want to make a long-term MG animation, you can do it alone. It doesn't take a few minutes or even a long time to build a synthesis, which will be very annoying. You can divide a movie into several shots, one at a time, and then put them together.

6, more application of dynamic fuzzy and curve (graphic editor). The application of dynamic blur is more in line with the laws of nature, and the curve is used to control the acceleration and deceleration of the material, so that the whole picture has a sense of rhythm and rhythm.

7.MG animation is an indispensable special transition. You can do it yourself or use some transitions in AE software. As long as it is creative, we should use our divergent thinking, learn professional knowledge and use our imagination.

8. You will encounter this problem when creating MG animation. I can't do this shot, and I don't know what to do. I suggest that friends use more examples in life, such as the running of cars, the rotation of clocks, the flying of birds, the falling of leaves and the swimming of fish, because art comes from life, and I hope it will help everyone.
