Are you ready to dive into the exciting world of motion graphics and take your design skills to the next level? Join me, Marcos, a Senior Motion Graphics Designer with over a decade of experience, as I guide you through the process of creating dynamic kinetic type animations that captivate and engage.

In this comprehensive class, you'll learn:

• Document Setup and Typeface Selection: Start by preparing your artboard in Adobe Illustrator, choosing the perfect word and typeface for your kinetic type design.
• Designing and Preparing for Animation: Create a structured grid, align your design elements perfectly, and prepare your Illustrator file for seamless animation in After Effects.
• Animating in After Effects: Import your Illustrator file into After Effects, set up your composition, and create dynamic motion using null objects and powerful expressions. Don't worry if you're new to expressions; I'll guide you through each step.
• Adding Finishing Touches: Experiment with additional effects like Echo for stylish trails and CC Reptile for creative tiling. Learn how to export your final animation in multiple formats, including MP4 and GIF.

Throughout the class, I'll share my favorite techniques and workflow scripts to help you work faster and more efficiently. You'll also receive helpful resources, including a guide maker script to streamline your design process.

By the end of this class, you'll have the skills to create stunning kinetic type animations and the confidence to explore new creative possibilities in motion graphics. Whether you're a beginner or looking to enhance your skills, this class is designed to provide valuable insights and hands-on experience.
