Mograph Techniques: Animating to Music
Mograph Techniques: Animating to Music is an Intermediate level study on Video, written by an expert, Ian Robinson. This study is a critical foundation for an individual who needs to excel in his/her Video skills. It provides you a thorough grip on Motion Graphics, Video, After Effects, CINEMA 4D, Motion Graphics, Video, After Effects and CINEMA 4D.
Harmonize your motion graphics with music. This project-based course shows how to complete two mograph assignments, a bumper graphic and identity spot, and explains how to transition the tools and techniques to your own projects. Author Ian Robinson starts in Adobe After Effects with Trapcode Sound Keys—isolating frequencies and creating related keyframes that allow you to drive properties like the position, rotation, or even the hue of an object. Then learn traditional editing techniques to transform a 3D animation into multiple pieces for the bumper, and migrate to CINEMA 4D and use the Sound Effector to resolve the logo for the identity spot.
