Practical 9

In class today we were given a recap of using After Effects. Paul taught us how to use the camera tool to adjust perspectives. Also how to adjust lighting with light layers.

  • Don't use already made composition - better to make new comp with correct settings
  • Shift and drag to stay straight
  • We recapped using key frames to move objects
  • Expand layers panel
  • 3D layer
  • Layer > New > Camera

  • Add camera layer (POV of viewer)
  • Click on layers to move back/forth (Z, Y, X)

  • Light layer - can use different colour
  • Creates realistic looking shadows



  • Wiggler - could be useful to create chaotic scenes in my animation
  • Use RAM preview rather than pressing space
