Creative Split Screens in After Effects, Part 2 هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

Make your video projects more awesome today, by adding creative composite techniques in After Effects!  Learn to use the creative potential of split screens:  combining multiple layers of video and still images to create interesting combined, or composite, visual effects.  

There are many ways in which we can manipulate images, video footage, and really exploit the potentials of multiple layers and pre-compositions in After Effects.  In this course, media designer Natasha Collette introduces technical skills, workflows, and professional tips and tricks that will not only introduce you to the fun and creativity of split screens, but will enhance your entire After Effects skill set.

This course is a direct continuation of Creative Split Screens Part 1, so completely beginner-level students might find it easier to start with that course before taking Part 2.  In Creative Split Screens Part 2, we assume that students understand some basics:  starting a new project, importing assets, creating shapes and shape layers, compositions and pre-comp's, keyframes, adding cameras to a 3-D composition, using preset effects, and know at least a bit about AE expressions.  Creative Split Screens Part 1 reviews all of these topics, so feel free to look at those tutorials first if you're entirely new to After Effects.

Downloadable media files are available with each project, to encourage you to jump right in and start building in After Effects.  You'll have clear instructions in each tutorial video allowing you to follow along step-by-step.  This course will help you to refine your existing After Effects skills, learn new techniques, and gain more proficiency and confidence.  

Creative Split Screens Part 2 is structured around three main "Projects", each of which has been carefully designed to demonstrate particular concepts and give students hands-on experience applying new knowledge.  By the end of the course, you'll have a better understanding of some approaches to incorporating split screens to add vibrancy, visual interest and a professional "polish" to your video, motion graphics, or animation work.  We'll explore using shapes, masking, track mattes, parenting, pre-compositions, cameras, and some basic AE expressions that you can begin to use immediately.  These are all transferable skills and knowledge, which you can begin to apply into projects that you are already working on, or are inspired to start now!  

You'll need access to Adobe After Effects to fully benefit from this course.  The tutorials have been created with Adobe After Effects CC 2015, but earlier versions of the software (CS 4, 5, 6) will work.
