SkillShare Animating With Light
In this class I’ll show you my own method for simulating light in After Effects. You’ll learn how to turn any text, graphic or animation into a neon sign, building completely custom glow effects. We’ll also go over lots of tips and tricks for animating with shape layers, using precompositions to make a procedurally generated effect, a simple expression rig for color management, and lots more! Once you understand how to simulate light you’ll be able to add an extra level of realism to any design or animation.
This class is designed for artists who have some experience with After Effects, but it’s not required. As with all of my courses, you’ll be able to follow along step-by-step with my videos even if you’ve never used the software before.
