This workshop is for you if…

  • you’re a lettering artist or design nerd

  • you want to add animation to you client services

  • you want to learn animation but you find After Effects complicated and random tutorials out there just don't cut it

In this After Effects file, you'll get what was in the training video. 

  • Animate your own signature

  • Why trim paths rock!

  • Lots of great keyboard shortcuts

  • Linear vs Easy Ease examples

  • Dozens of things to watch out for (After Effects is a tricky bugger, so learning what to avoid is about as important as what to do!)

Homework

  • Create your own animated signature with Trim Paths and Easy Ease

  • If it's your first animation, stick with the basics

  • If you're a little more seasoned, push the boundaries and get creative

  • Use the hashtag #LetteringAnimation and tag me (@ItsAustinSaylor on Twitter and Instagram) I'd love to see what you make… I may even share some posts on my stories/feed!

  • Join the Facebook pop-up group
