Course Description
Before we can map, we need something to map. There are plenty of sites to source content such as archival footage, VJ loops, etc., but for the more precise artist, the only way to make your artwork a carbon copy of your thoughts is through the production of your own graphical assets. A great way to do that is motion graphic design. Learn the basics of: perspective, staging, pacing, and appeal while learning the technical skills of keyframing, compositing, and GPU-accelerated rendering for performance-based projects, all with Adobe After Effects CC.
