1 00:00:01,090 --> 00:00:04,420 Hi guys hopefully you enjoyed the lectures before this one. 2 00:00:04,420 --> 00:00:11,260 Now in this lecture we want to understand about composition or you want to create our first composition 3 00:00:12,050 --> 00:00:19,570 composition will contain all your layers and will contain all the manipulation of this lead in the timeline. 4 00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:26,970 So your letters will be listed here and the manipulation through key frames and frames will be shown 5 00:00:26,980 --> 00:00:27,520 on this side. 6 00:00:27,530 --> 00:00:32,800 We'll see that in the you'll notice that the toolbar here everything shaded out. 7 00:00:32,810 --> 00:00:40,260 I cannot use any tool this is because to be able to use any tool or to create a layer you need to be 8 00:00:40,350 --> 00:00:41,450 in a composition. 9 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,650 So we need to create a composition. 10 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,380 Let's create our first composition. 11 00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:48,120 There are many ways to create the. 12 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:55,080 The first one is to come to composition and you have new composition here all use control and second 13 00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:01,140 one is to click in your project and the right click and choose new composition. 14 00:01:01,350 --> 00:01:08,070 And the best one that's the one I like very much is click on this button here and say create composition. 15 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:09,540 I will do that. 16 00:01:09,540 --> 00:01:13,720 Now you have the composition dialog box you have the composition name. 17 00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:14,730 You can change it. 18 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,240 Of course not leave it to comp one. 19 00:01:17,250 --> 00:01:22,200 Then you have the basic parameters he can adjust all the advanced one. 20 00:01:22,230 --> 00:01:24,630 We'll see that later on in the course. 21 00:01:24,690 --> 00:01:29,410 They stick to basic for now you have the play set and you have the width and the heights. 22 00:01:29,460 --> 00:01:35,620 Of course if you don't use the preset you can set your width and height and all these parameters. 23 00:01:35,910 --> 00:01:38,400 Let's see what we have inside the playsets. 24 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:48,030 If you have many options from the web videos to TVs these will create very nice web movies and you have 25 00:01:48,180 --> 00:01:51,940 up to four K and 2K now. 26 00:01:52,110 --> 00:01:58,680 In our case here we are doing motion graphics for web design or to display them on YouTube. 27 00:01:58,740 --> 00:02:08,500 And for the web my favorite presets are the HDTV 720 and the HDTV then 80 25 frames per second. 28 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,160 I would not use twenty nine point ninety seven because it will mess up my calculation. 29 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,940 And actually when you're putting on the web that is no need it used twenty nine point ninety seven which 30 00:02:17,940 --> 00:02:19,270 is very common by the way. 31 00:02:19,590 --> 00:02:23,680 So let's use 720 by 25. 32 00:02:23,790 --> 00:02:33,150 We have these barometers for the 720 by 25 which is 12 80 the height 720 pixels that what you call 720. 33 00:02:33,630 --> 00:02:36,110 Keep the square pixels always. 34 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:41,520 Otherwise if you change them it's mainly directed towards TVs and not web graphic. 35 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,560 And then do some complications for you. 36 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,770 Frame it let's keep it at 25. 37 00:02:45,870 --> 00:02:52,350 And the most important here is the time unit is here at five seconds at best 25. 38 00:02:52,460 --> 00:02:58,470 Just for example if you want 10 seconds you will write ten point or it's 125. 39 00:02:58,470 --> 00:03:01,150 You can write 25 seconds and zero zero. 40 00:03:01,290 --> 00:03:02,880 That will make 25 seconds. 41 00:03:02,890 --> 00:03:04,900 You notice has changed here. 42 00:03:04,920 --> 00:03:06,990 For now I want to choose five seconds. 43 00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:08,670 I can write five. 44 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:09,320 Period. 45 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,450 Or not choose the background color. 46 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,650 I will leave it to black but you can change it to anything you want and click OK. 47 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,560 Now we have created our first position not is the composition appeared in three places first in the 48 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,710 composition. 49 00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:26,460 The background here did not appear as black. 50 00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:33,510 Because I'm using the transparency if I toggle transparency it will go back to the composition background 51 00:03:33,540 --> 00:03:39,200 color which is black and then it appeared in the time line it opened in the timeline. 52 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:45,790 And of course it created the new composition in our project and you see how the project is updating. 53 00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:51,090 But let's say you want to change the parameters you don't like the name to become one and you want to 54 00:03:51,090 --> 00:03:53,640 change for example the time what you do. 55 00:03:53,670 --> 00:04:00,360 You can come to the timeline right click on on the name of the camp and go to composition setting. 56 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:06,060 That's one way the other way is to click on your composition in the project panel and then right click 57 00:04:06,060 --> 00:04:09,190 and say composition setting for example I will use this one. 58 00:04:09,450 --> 00:04:16,320 Let's change the name to first camp and that's all we want to change here. 59 00:04:16,350 --> 00:04:19,720 We will not change the direction we click OK. 60 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,110 And we have our first composition called first. 61 00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:31,630 So this is the way to create a composition and to change the parameters of a composition or the timing 62 00:04:31,660 --> 00:04:33,460 or the name of the composition. 63 00:04:33,460 --> 00:04:37,340 Another way to change the name of a composition is just to play it choose it. 64 00:04:37,450 --> 00:04:42,840 Inside the project then press enter and you can write in your name. 65 00:04:43,420 --> 00:04:50,020 For example click out and you have a new name notice that it changed in your name in the time. 66 00:04:50,130 --> 00:04:56,200 So now that you've created in your composition Your lot is that the toolbar hear that or highlighted. 67 00:04:56,210 --> 00:05:02,880 And we can start using them in the next lecture without creating some shapes and some text and to start 68 00:05:02,930 --> 00:05:05,300 animating creating a motion graphic. 69 00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:07,030 I see you in the next lecture.
