With this method there’s no need to manually track elements inside of After Effects-simply drop the elements in and reposition. This data allows AE users to easily composite graphical elements into Google Earth animations. The beauty of this web application is the fact that you can set track points and export 3D camera data for use in Adobe After Effects. For a detailed introduction to Earth Studio, check out my last article here. Google recently introduced Earth Studio, a browser-based animation tool that allows users to create, customize, and share detailed Google Earth animations. Without keyframes, you wouldn’t be able to create the incredible array of effects and motion graphics that creators come up with every single day.With Google Earth Studio and Adobe After Effects, compositing has never been easier.
Why do You Need Keyframes in After Effects?Īs I mentioned above, keyframes are an essential part of creating motion/animation/moving visual effects within After Effects. It does this through interpolation and that in turn results in the movement of a layer or property, creating motion/animation.ĭo this with enough layers and properties and you can create a sequence of motion/animation within your timeline. A start and end keyframe tells After Effects that it needs to move that property between those two points in the timeline Keyframes are a tool for animators/motion graphic designers to tell After Effects that they want a specific layer and a specific property within that layer to stay exactly as it is on that exact frame in the timeline.īy creating exact properties at different intervals on the timeline After Effects knows it needs to move/alter the layer or property in between those frames to get from one to the other.
