Name COMP: lastnamefirst name_AE TC

New Composition in After Effects: 1080 x 1080 pixels magenta #FF00FF

Name COMP: lastnamefirst name_AE TC

Go to LAYER>TEXT> Add ANNOYING, then AWESOME, then ART EXHIBIT.
Make sure that you have three layers

Create a type Composition (design)

Now we will start creating the “animation” with the basic transform options of After Effects. We will only use POSITION and SCALE

Timeline and Time indicator /transform options /keyframe

Here I am moving my anchor point to the center of the WORD annoying. The anchor point determines the point from which transformation will happen in relationship to the object animated

We now have to add keyframes. I start by adding these to the end results of my animation. Move time indicator to second 5. Then add keyframes
I am adding a keyframe for POSITION (P) for AWESOME and ANNOYING and
a SCALE keyframe to ART EXHIBIT

Move time indicator all the way to the start of timeline

Once the time indicator all the way to the start of timeline, SELECT ANNOYING, We will transform its positioning again. Move it out of the composition. A keyframe should now be at the start of timeline.
HIT the SPACE BAR to PREVIEW

Do the Same for AWESOME, Hit THE SPACE BAR to PREVIEW

For ART EXHIBIT. I am transforming its scale. I am going to reduce its size.
Note that I am starting at 10% — HIT SPACE BAR to PREVIEW

How to render:

Composition> Add to Render QUEUE

Click over Go to lossless (Output Module Settings)

Format Quicktime and HIT FORMAT OPTIONS

Under CODEC: Apple Pro Res 422, hit ok

Under Output To: Name your File and saving location

Then hit RENDER. This will generate a .MOV file. It will likely be be large

Once in QuickTime go file Export as 1080. This will be a compressed version of the .MOV
(This is the one that you will give me)

Check speed of .MOV file (do not check speed in After Effects) , adjust if necessary. Do not Exceed 10 seconds.
