DESCRIPTION

This session is a grab-bag of unusual, but easy to create, effects using Motion 5. In this online session, discover the power of parameter animation, animated brush strokes, and interesting things to do with blend modes and video.

Unlock the animation and flexibility hidden in Motion and discover weird, but cool, effects you can use to amaze your friends… and clients. Join host, Larry Jordan, as he shows how to:

• Work with Drop Zones
• Send Motion projects to Final Cut Pro X… and back
• Find and delete Motion templates for FCP X
• Create an automated picture-in-picture effect
• Modify Motion Path animation into different geometric shapes and curves
• Apply image masks to clips
• Unlock the power and flexibility of parameter animation
• Create visual effects based upon audio
• Motion track project elements

Motion doesn’t require you to be either a rocket scientist or graphics designer. It just requires that you be willing to play… once you know where the playground is located.
