00:00:01,090 --> 00:00:01,800
Hi guys.

2
00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:05,300
And welcome to visual effects in aftereffects.

3
00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:09,780
This is live from a school online that come together in this lecture.

4
00:00:09,780 --> 00:00:16,070
We are going to create a simple project that will use the cities feed and the radio waves and get some

5
00:00:16,070 --> 00:00:17,360
waves coming up of the earth.

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:23,990
It's like a weather report if you like but with some earth waves coming out so it's going to be is going

7
00:00:23,990 --> 00:00:24,860
to be fun.

8
00:00:24,860 --> 00:00:26,710
And I would like you to follow along with me.

9
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:31,500
The exercise here is about six feet and radio waves combined together.

10
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,710
So once you get this habit of combining this effect and working the effects together.

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,180
Good stuff.

12
00:00:38,390 --> 00:00:40,540
We have the warm up here.

13
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,850
That is three thousand eight hundred forty by 2160.

14
00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:45,070
This is a forecast.

15
00:00:45,310 --> 00:00:52,140
I will take this a map and create a composition from it or just drop it over here and you have a full

16
00:00:52,140 --> 00:00:53,450
scale composition.

17
00:00:53,570 --> 00:00:59,500
It really doesn't matter if your composition is for 25 frames per second.

18
00:00:59,510 --> 00:01:01,810
You maybe don't want to render it like this.

19
00:01:01,830 --> 00:01:09,650
You can still play composite into in 1920 by 10:8 example or just in the render you make it in 1920

20
00:01:09,650 --> 00:01:10,500
by 10.

21
00:01:10,540 --> 00:01:13,080
It could but I will work over here.

22
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:18,330
Not that I put the resolution to have to have SPDR render.

23
00:01:18,430 --> 00:01:24,820
So the steps that you are going to work with is to create a sphere any meet our sphere then decide on

24
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:30,070
the areas of course while the meeting where the waves are going to come out and then we are going to

25
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,110
get our waves and tweak the waves.

26
00:01:33,130 --> 00:01:34,860
It's going to be quite some fun.

27
00:01:34,870 --> 00:01:36,440
Let's go to perspective.

28
00:01:36,700 --> 00:01:40,290
And we think this is a sphere and drop it on the map.

29
00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:42,120
Now you could have decomposed them up.

30
00:01:42,130 --> 00:01:43,050
That's OK.

31
00:01:43,060 --> 00:01:49,590
But I dropped it here because it's easier for now let's hike the radius to make it big enough.

32
00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:58,660
Let's see if we can go on now to 700 1000 let's say 1000 now we want to animate our sphere the way we

33
00:01:58,660 --> 00:02:06,810
want to animate it we rotate and fix on a certain piece of land and then it will zoom in then it will

34
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:08,710
stay there for two or three seconds.

35
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:14,820
This is when the waves will appear and then it will zoom out while the waves are disappearing rotate

36
00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:15,540
again.

37
00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:20,600
Zoom in zoom out and we continue then the animation that we would like.

38
00:02:20,780 --> 00:02:27,210
Let's start doing this to animate the sphere we are going to use the rotation and we will keyframe the

39
00:02:27,540 --> 00:02:33,840
rotation and also we are going to keyframe the radius because of the zooming out I would come to the

40
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,430
layer and press you to see the keyframes.

41
00:02:36,510 --> 00:02:39,550
Then let's move after two seconds only.

42
00:02:39,570 --> 00:02:47,010
And we want to rotate around the y axis let's rotate it for example to overhear pest control to read

43
00:02:47,190 --> 00:02:48,100
slowly.

44
00:02:48,390 --> 00:02:50,200
Here you are fine.

45
00:02:50,490 --> 00:02:52,140
I will keyframe again the radius.

46
00:02:52,170 --> 00:02:59,310
So arriving here let's give it for example one second to zoom in something like this and zoom in.

47
00:02:59,310 --> 00:03:06,360
We are going to use the ridges so I will just press shift and Hagg the value of the radius and see exactly

48
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:07,790
what's happening at school.

49
00:03:07,860 --> 00:03:11,890
Of course I need to keyframe again the rotation so it doesn't move.

50
00:03:12,030 --> 00:03:13,700
Let's look at the animation now.

51
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:17,820
If we press space but it rotates and zoom in.

52
00:03:17,910 --> 00:03:18,300
Cool.

53
00:03:18,390 --> 00:03:22,180
We wanted to stay in this position for example two seconds only.

54
00:03:22,290 --> 00:03:25,440
So keyframe again the rotation and the radius.

55
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:25,770
OK.

56
00:03:25,770 --> 00:03:29,940
Don't be mean on a keyframes is much easier in this time.

57
00:03:29,940 --> 00:03:39,980
From 4 to 7 there will be radio waves coming in and then we wanted to zoom out or go back to 1000.

58
00:03:40,050 --> 00:03:42,280
I'll put it back to 1000.

59
00:03:42,570 --> 00:03:49,660
And of course I have to keyframe the rotation then we'll give it another one second to rotate.

60
00:03:49,890 --> 00:03:55,160
Let's say now we rotate it the other direction over here let's find land.

61
00:03:55,180 --> 00:03:56,610
OK here is nice.

62
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:57,030
Good.

63
00:03:57,210 --> 00:04:04,320
I would keyframe again the radius and now it would take one second to zoom into this piece of land.

64
00:04:04,350 --> 00:04:11,400
It doesn't matter if it's zooming in like the other one but it's OK if we put for example 3500 here

65
00:04:11,420 --> 00:04:12,830
you are quite.

66
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,080
Let's keyframe the rotation.

67
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,110
Now we want to stay here for two seconds.

68
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:18,970
That's cool.

69
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,790
We keyframe both of them.

70
00:04:20,970 --> 00:04:28,270
And then we wanted to zoom out for now and we'll return the radius to 1000.

71
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:29,490
OK fine.

72
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:36,360
Let's go and use the third of the resolution so we can see the animation we don't get resolution yet.

73
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:37,730
So it's turning.

74
00:04:38,100 --> 00:04:44,390
Zooming in and then hopefully it will stop there for some time.

75
00:04:44,390 --> 00:04:45,920
That is two seconds.

76
00:04:46,220 --> 00:04:49,850
So you know here are radio waves are going to appear between the two.

77
00:04:50,030 --> 00:04:51,980
And even the 10.

78
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,280
So while zooming in we put the radio waves and why zooming out.

79
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:58,630
Also we have the radio waves but that will be fading away.

80
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,860
I think our mission is correct.

81
00:05:00,860 --> 00:05:03,650
That's quite good for me to do this animation while talking.

82
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,310
Thank you very much for your encouragement.

83
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,260
Now I will come to the Laskey frame over here.

84
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:15,010
And the curriculum again the rotation so I have no movement here for the rotation.

85
00:05:15,010 --> 00:05:16,760
Then later on you can continue.

86
00:05:16,860 --> 00:05:19,050
Now let's add the radio waves.

87
00:05:19,050 --> 00:05:25,710
I will create a new Solet of course make it the size of the comp you make it smaller really doesn't

88
00:05:25,710 --> 00:05:33,950
matter and that we go into our generate effects and find radio waves and drop the radio waves over.

89
00:05:34,410 --> 00:05:38,010
If you're not there's now it's really working the radio waves are OK.

90
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,820
We wanted first of all to situate the radio waves.

91
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,150
So actually when it's rotating it comes over here.

92
00:05:45,150 --> 00:05:47,900
We want the radio wave to start over here.

93
00:05:47,910 --> 00:05:54,320
Now you'll notice that the radio waves will start from the start of the layer from over here.

94
00:05:54,570 --> 00:05:58,580
If you come to two seconds you'll notice that you already have two radio waves.

95
00:05:58,740 --> 00:06:05,130
So trimming your layer to overhead is not a good way to do it because not exactly when you come just

96
00:06:05,250 --> 00:06:07,630
after you have already two radio waves.

97
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:14,430
I will do this the best way to do it is to click and drag your player to the keyframes at this point.

98
00:06:14,430 --> 00:06:17,010
The Ridgeway's will really start over here.

99
00:06:17,060 --> 00:06:18,810
Here you are.

100
00:06:18,870 --> 00:06:20,540
Now we want to go further.

101
00:06:20,550 --> 00:06:24,300
This is the final zoom over here we wanted to cut this display.

102
00:06:24,300 --> 00:06:26,340
Of course we are going to fade away.

103
00:06:26,460 --> 00:06:33,630
The radio waves I will use at and a right to bracket it squared bucket if you like to remove it and

104
00:06:33,630 --> 00:06:35,130
it will go way cool.

105
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,080
Now we want to use masks.

106
00:06:37,230 --> 00:06:40,610
So of course we are going to put it on the air itself.

107
00:06:40,770 --> 00:06:44,700
I would come and throw a nice mask when we are at full zoom.

108
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:50,400
If I throw the mask over here or over here then it's going to give complications because it's zooming

109
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:51,280
in and out.

110
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:54,190
So I would roll it when it's at full zoom.

111
00:06:54,210 --> 00:06:58,100
Let's take the pen tool now and draw out a mask.

112
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,270
Let's say we determine a certain area.

113
00:07:00,270 --> 00:07:05,820
We want to be central here with click and drag something like this is no big deal.

114
00:07:06,150 --> 00:07:10,650
OK of course you can come and play with your mask and make it very beautiful.

115
00:07:10,650 --> 00:07:11,690
I'm trying my best.

116
00:07:11,810 --> 00:07:12,020
OK.

117
00:07:12,030 --> 00:07:12,870
This is cool.

118
00:07:12,910 --> 00:07:19,150
But let's go on now put masks and then in the mask we will use a mask.

119
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,210
Let's try our animation now.

120
00:07:21,330 --> 00:07:22,200
It's working.

121
00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:23,040
Not bad.

122
00:07:23,190 --> 00:07:23,660
Rain.

123
00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:29,200
So we want to adjust it now and make sure that it is starting to fade from over here.

124
00:07:29,190 --> 00:07:31,160
So here it has to be at its maximum.

125
00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:31,980
Let's play it.

126
00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:35,840
First of all let's take the color and make it white.

127
00:07:36,210 --> 00:07:39,050
Let's take the square and make it the truth.

128
00:07:39,090 --> 00:07:41,210
In for example that would be cool.

129
00:07:41,250 --> 00:07:46,950
We need to start with to be much higher so we can see something at least that's not bad.

130
00:07:47,340 --> 00:07:51,220
And maybe the end with it will make it smaller.

131
00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:56,160
Let's see exactly how is it doing here now but call the change a bit.

132
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,920
The life spans to it second.

133
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,420
You are that's not bad.

134
00:08:00,630 --> 00:08:05,970
And we can see it now clearly it comes in.

135
00:08:05,970 --> 00:08:09,990
It zooms in and the waves you know are starting to come while it's zooming.

136
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:11,550
This is a nice technique.

137
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:12,660
Cool.

138
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:18,010
And we're coming out now we need to find out when it is zooming out.

139
00:08:18,030 --> 00:08:19,140
How would we do this.

140
00:08:19,140 --> 00:08:23,080
Let's go to this key thing we used to get here to go to this cliff.

141
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:31,640
I will give frame the life span here and press you to see the keyframes come to the end of the lead.

142
00:08:31,650 --> 00:08:37,520
Our press all to go to the point of the letter and make it the lifespan is zero.

143
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:45,990
Now there's nothing has happened because we are in the birth parameters here meaning only the last one

144
00:08:45,990 --> 00:08:49,980
that has been created has been affected or the rest have not be affected.

145
00:08:49,980 --> 00:08:53,120
So to make it work will change to each frame.

146
00:08:53,330 --> 00:08:53,970
Here you are.

147
00:08:54,030 --> 00:08:55,140
They have disappeared.

148
00:08:55,260 --> 00:08:57,150
That is what's happening exactly.

149
00:08:57,180 --> 00:08:59,940
Try to render it as fast as possible.

150
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,200
Zooms in there start glowing.

151
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,970
And here you are.

152
00:09:05,010 --> 00:09:07,200
And now they are going to start fading away.

153
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,850
All of them could of course this is a very beautiful animation.

154
00:09:11,850 --> 00:09:15,840
I just want to show you the technique and how to make the waves disappear.

155
00:09:16,050 --> 00:09:17,110
Now let's go back.

156
00:09:17,130 --> 00:09:19,030
We have another zoom here.

157
00:09:19,140 --> 00:09:23,870
We need to do also the same put some waves over here.

158
00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:26,840
The way to do it we can just duplicate this layer.

159
00:09:26,850 --> 00:09:34,110
Our press control the I have now a new layer and then I will move this layer to the side.

160
00:09:34,510 --> 00:09:35,090
OK.

161
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:36,490
Let's play it.

162
00:09:36,670 --> 00:09:37,200
Not bad.

163
00:09:37,260 --> 00:09:44,670
But of course we need to change now the mask itself give it more you know style for this piece of land.

164
00:09:44,670 --> 00:09:46,490
Remember that we are watching on Thursday.

165
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:48,400
So the resolution is not very good.

166
00:09:48,420 --> 00:09:50,900
Let's come over here where it's at maximum.

167
00:09:50,910 --> 00:09:53,870
Of course we take our pen tool.

168
00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:56,310
In fact we can work with the selection tool.

169
00:09:56,310 --> 00:09:59,830
We shift click on the mask and we start changing it.

170
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:00,910
OK.

171
00:10:01,020 --> 00:10:03,830
And we wanted to do it the way you would like.

172
00:10:03,870 --> 00:10:09,750
Of course I would love that if you come over here and start playing with it and make it as nice as you

173
00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:10,560
would like.

174
00:10:10,650 --> 00:10:11,260
Fine.

175
00:10:11,470 --> 00:10:13,050
OK this is good for me.

176
00:10:13,050 --> 00:10:19,120
I like the ship but of course we need to add maybe the expansion bit.

177
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:25,090
The goal is going to expand to overhear add the frequency Let's have a few more.

178
00:10:25,380 --> 00:10:25,990
OK.

179
00:10:26,190 --> 00:10:28,780
And we notice that when is zooming out.

180
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,580
It's going to start disappearing.

181
00:10:30,870 --> 00:10:33,630
Let's play our animation and see what we have.

182
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:39,620
Of course we are on Third remember so the resolution is not very good or full it will be excellent.

183
00:10:39,630 --> 00:10:44,060
You can come over the fade in time fade out time and play with them.

184
00:10:44,090 --> 00:10:46,620
They end with also make it much better than mine.

185
00:10:46,620 --> 00:10:48,980
You can change the color of the second one.

186
00:10:49,020 --> 00:10:52,680
You can play it with the velocity if you wanted to move or the spin a bit.

187
00:10:52,860 --> 00:10:53,570
And here you are.

188
00:10:53,580 --> 00:10:55,010
Your animation is done.

189
00:10:55,320 --> 00:11:01,830
Thank you very much for listening and I hope this was very useful for you and you learn how to manipulate

190
00:11:01,950 --> 00:11:08,340
the sphere with the radio waves how to put them together and the sudden there's not a huge example but

191
00:11:08,340 --> 00:11:15,090
it's something very useful for you to start combining the facts and start talking even better with all

192
00:11:15,090 --> 00:11:15,660
the effects.

193
00:11:15,790 --> 00:11:17,280
See you in the next lecture.
