00:00:01,150 --> 00:00:08,680
Hi guys in this lecture you are going to understand at 100 percent the concept of motion path and if

2
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:14,070
you don't please ask all the questions you want to ask in the Q Any section of the course.

3
00:00:14,290 --> 00:00:20,290
It's an important concept and I will be very happy to help you understand the concept of motion path

4
00:00:20,830 --> 00:00:23,630
and it's very easy very simple Don't worry about it.

5
00:00:23,740 --> 00:00:26,460
Just try to notice a few things.

6
00:00:26,490 --> 00:00:33,790
Let's start out create a new composition and I would take 12 80 by 720 and please work with me.

7
00:00:33,930 --> 00:00:36,870
Make sure that the frame rate is 30.

8
00:00:37,030 --> 00:00:42,660
OK this is important because I'm going to talk about the frame rate and then of course make it 10 seconds.

9
00:00:42,660 --> 00:00:46,360
It will do so now that you have your composition.

10
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:49,060
I want to remind you about a couple of settings.

11
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:55,690
First if you go to edit if you are in the macula think on the aftereffects you see you go to preferences.

12
00:00:55,860 --> 00:00:58,820
And here you go too general.

13
00:00:58,980 --> 00:01:04,290
Remember there is a setting that you put a default spatial interpellation to Kenya.

14
00:01:04,770 --> 00:01:05,990
What what does it mean.

15
00:01:06,030 --> 00:01:09,780
There are three key words here are the five actually spatial.

16
00:01:09,780 --> 00:01:12,880
It means it is in space not in time.

17
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:14,960
It's in space not in time.

18
00:01:15,060 --> 00:01:23,460
It is spatial not Templer interpellation it means the interpretation of the motion path or how it's

19
00:01:23,460 --> 00:01:25,560
going to occur and linear.

20
00:01:25,620 --> 00:01:29,810
It means straight lines and not curved lines or circle lines.

21
00:01:29,910 --> 00:01:37,530
So spatial space interpretation and linear make sure this default is checked like.

22
00:01:38,810 --> 00:01:40,660
Within your composition preview.

23
00:01:40,670 --> 00:01:47,920
It's important that you put Tuggle mask and shape path visibility on OK so make sure it's on.

24
00:01:47,930 --> 00:01:53,960
If you can't see the motion but the on that to put it on and off and in the preview please make sure

25
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,560
that the last I can is checked.

26
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,060
This will allow us to see the motion path when we have a preview.

27
00:02:02,110 --> 00:02:07,440
Let's create a motion through space and time that is spatial and temporal.

28
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,330
Nice terms but they're going to appear in after effects.

29
00:02:10,330 --> 00:02:11,490
And you're going to use them.

30
00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:13,940
Let's take for example a circle.

31
00:02:14,020 --> 00:02:18,380
OK click on the stool click and drag and create the circle.

32
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,210
So the anchor point jumped in the middle of the circle.

33
00:02:21,220 --> 00:02:24,880
If you don't have it use the anchor point door to bring it in the middle.

34
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:32,650
If you want to limit through time and space you will need the position that's key from the position

35
00:02:32,660 --> 00:02:33,560
just over here.

36
00:02:34,410 --> 00:02:38,910
And then let's move down the time I will move now in time.

37
00:02:38,940 --> 00:02:41,350
Notice I moved in time for one second.

38
00:02:41,350 --> 00:02:43,180
Then let's move in space.

39
00:02:43,180 --> 00:02:43,870
Here you are.

40
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:50,680
So when you moved in time and you move the space a motion path has been created as simple as this.

41
00:02:50,890 --> 00:02:51,540
Let's do it again.

42
00:02:51,550 --> 00:02:53,170
Let's move to two seconds.

43
00:02:53,170 --> 00:02:53,960
Here you are.

44
00:02:54,010 --> 00:03:00,480
So we moved in time and then we move in space and another leg of the motion path has been created.

45
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,810
This move again in time and less move again in space.

46
00:03:04,870 --> 00:03:06,210
So this is spatial.

47
00:03:06,250 --> 00:03:07,450
This is temporal.

48
00:03:07,620 --> 00:03:10,860
Any new motion path has been created or a new lick.

49
00:03:10,930 --> 00:03:14,950
Let's go to the final one at 4 and move again.

50
00:03:14,980 --> 00:03:15,590
Here you are.

51
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,020
I stop the animation at 4 seconds.

52
00:03:18,950 --> 00:03:26,090
If you skip through now your element or your shape is moving through time and through space that's pretty

53
00:03:26,090 --> 00:03:26,630
good.

54
00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:29,480
So this is how emotion path is created.

55
00:03:29,870 --> 00:03:36,470
Let's look at the special aspect of the motion but first of all you have these big squares here one

56
00:03:36,710 --> 00:03:39,240
and two and three.

57
00:03:39,410 --> 00:03:41,300
These are the keyframes.

58
00:03:41,390 --> 00:03:44,660
That is if I click on this one it will highlight in the timeline.

59
00:03:44,660 --> 00:03:46,270
These are the keyframes.

60
00:03:46,370 --> 00:03:53,620
You can click in space and change the position the special position of this key frame.

61
00:03:53,630 --> 00:03:59,280
So you are changing how you are looking at the path or what will be the path itself.

62
00:03:59,450 --> 00:04:02,590
Nothing to do with time just moving it.

63
00:04:02,610 --> 00:04:07,620
I don't now these small dots here are the frames.

64
00:04:07,620 --> 00:04:10,450
Remember our composition was 30 frames per second.

65
00:04:10,620 --> 00:04:13,280
So here you have 30 dots.

66
00:04:13,290 --> 00:04:13,700
Why.

67
00:04:13,710 --> 00:04:17,790
Because we have one second between this frame and this frame.

68
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,560
There must be 30 frames per second.

69
00:04:20,580 --> 00:04:26,100
Now if you zoom in I will use this spot here to zoom in and to show you frames per second here.

70
00:04:26,490 --> 00:04:29,190
So not this you can jump one frame at a time.

71
00:04:29,190 --> 00:04:29,890
Here you are.

72
00:04:30,060 --> 00:04:31,520
This is Entine Templeton.

73
00:04:31,550 --> 00:04:38,700
I'm going one frame at a time and you notice that also spatially it's going one frame at a time as simple

74
00:04:38,700 --> 00:04:39,320
as this.

75
00:04:39,460 --> 00:04:39,970
OK.

76
00:04:40,110 --> 00:04:49,280
You can use Page Down to move down in the timeline and in the space one frame at a time or page up saw

77
00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:53,690
this is the representation of the motion path frames and keyframes.

78
00:04:53,940 --> 00:04:55,010
There's something else here.

79
00:04:55,010 --> 00:04:56,540
Let's zoom out.

80
00:04:56,820 --> 00:05:00,620
Go back to normal and let's take this keyframe click on it and move it.

81
00:05:00,630 --> 00:05:06,040
But I'm going to move it very neat to the second keyframe nothing nothing has happened in time.

82
00:05:06,150 --> 00:05:11,820
So I still have one second in between the first second keyframe and one second between the second keyframe

83
00:05:12,090 --> 00:05:13,190
and the 33.

84
00:05:13,410 --> 00:05:19,680
But if you notice the space in between the keyframes here is at least visible and the space here is

85
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:26,670
totally not visible which means it has to traverse all these frames in one second is going to go speedy

86
00:05:27,150 --> 00:05:29,560
and all these frames in one second.

87
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:30,890
So it's going to be slow.

88
00:05:31,010 --> 00:05:31,640
Let's try it.

89
00:05:31,650 --> 00:05:34,130
If you don't believe me you do not.

90
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,070
This is the special visualization of the motion path.

91
00:05:38,190 --> 00:05:40,450
And you can come and throw it the way you would like.

92
00:05:40,470 --> 00:05:44,770
That will be very interesting to draw motion path very easily.

93
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,550
You really don't have to hire us to go to the keyframe let's look at the temporal aspect here.

94
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,740
I take this keyframe and that it towards the next keyframe.

95
00:05:56,230 --> 00:05:58,790
That's what's going to happen in the motion path here.

96
00:05:59,020 --> 00:06:05,530
So obviously in the timeline here I know that I have more time in between the first and the second than

97
00:06:05,590 --> 00:06:08,040
in between the second and the third one.

98
00:06:08,290 --> 00:06:14,920
And visually I can see that or especially if you like there are more frames here and are new to each

99
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,820
other meaning this animation is going to be somehow slow.

100
00:06:18,820 --> 00:06:19,530
Be careful.

101
00:06:19,550 --> 00:06:21,130
I could have 10 seconds.

102
00:06:21,130 --> 00:06:21,640
OK.

103
00:06:21,790 --> 00:06:24,410
But this one is surely very fast.

104
00:06:24,430 --> 00:06:24,980
This play

105
00:06:29,130 --> 00:06:29,750
up.

106
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:37,120
So actually this is all about the motion path you create it through movement in space and movement in

107
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:42,940
time using for example the position in the next lecture about interpellation.
