Learn how to create engaging motion graphics using Apple's Motion 2.
Motion is plastic surgery for video. Once you know how to pilot Motion, you can manipulate video in every imaginable way. Watch as veteran video technician, Jamie McCallister shows you the pro view of using this program.
In 86 separate videos (easily referenced through Chapter and Section) you'll learn the key techniques you'll need to master Motion. Starting with a refresher course in video theory, Jamie progresses to explore the Motion interface and how it is used to create Motion Graphics
You'll also learn how to expedite work-flows using "round trips" between Motion and other Apple Pro Apps, how to keyframe animations and effects, and how to use Generators and particle systems to create interesting textures for your videos.
There's lots on offer in this program ... check out the Table of contents below for more information.
