Motion intimidates a lot of editors. But you don’t need to be a rocket-scientist or world-class graphics designer to create cool effects in Motion. In fact, its easy… once you know how.

In this short video tutorial, Larry Jordan shows how create and animate a dotted line using Motion; for example, to highlight a path across a map. And not just a straight line, but a line that looks like a drunken ant got lost at a picnic.
