Motion Graphics Tutorial

 

Motion Graphics Tutorial


    Both adobe animate and adobe after effects are useful tools for creating motion graphics which are used a lot. Animate is more on the animation side, creating 2d animation and creating graphics and vectors animated using tween. It can't really do that much 3d graphics and can't render those graphics moving. After effects is used for 2d and 3d graphics on a video, allowing for camera angles and videos to be used in order to aid in animating the graphics. It can't do that much video editing but for motion graphics, that isn't really an issue. I personalized the tutorials by adding a flag to the animation in animate and toned down the opacity of the transition in after effects.

    I plan to use adobe after effects for 2 main reasons. Firstly, I have experience with video editing software such as iMovie, Capcut, and VN video editor which have similar layouts and some of the functions that after effects do. That prior knowledge could help out a lot. Secondly, my brother took video production and did after effects there so if I have any issues, I could just ask him for assistance if he remembers. I'd do it over after effects because I have always been more interested in graphical animation in video and 3d animation rather than 2d animation. I also feel like you are able to do way more in after effects compared to animate.

Refining My Logo

  Why The Final Works      Out of all of these designs, I feel like the 5th design which is at the bottom left is my favorite. This is because it is one of the only ones where I feel like the line around the Tor actually connects well and I also like how the color gradient worked and the deep blue to light purple I like a lot. I feel like it works the best as the final because it looks both clean and professional which is what I was going for with the Tor design and the tighter spacing works better with the font and doesn't affect the way you interpret the design. I think it also stands out the most compared to the other designs with my eyes gravitating towards that last design in specific rather than the other designs. I din't spend the most time on the design but it looks like there was a lot of effort made to make the design like that in which did happen when making the design. It also represents the track I was going for the best which I just unintentionally real...

Five Digital Logo Comps Reflection

 5 Digi Roughs 1 2 3 4 5 Reflection I was pretty happy with the way my digi roughs had come out. I decided to do one design that I liked for each one of the names. I had a couple issues while making these designs though, firstly I couldn't find the right font for Eric so I found a different one but used the same design. Secondly, for Eric Torres I wrote it in my normal hand writing so I had to choose a font that I'd like to represent the design. Thirdly, the line I made on Tor I wasn't really happy about but I am not all that bothered by it since its a rough. I like the designs though as I found a nice font for Eric and both the ET and Torres came out well and the way I liked. I feel like I could still improve on these designs more as I move from roughs to finals. I also had to understand how to use the direct selection tool and create outline in order to make both ET and Torres look more connected and nice rather than it looking like it was sloppily attached the E and T.
