Course Synopsis: Apple Motion is a high-performance motion graphic design and production application. It is the only motion graphics program to provide real-time previews, procedural behavioral animation and Final Cut HD integration. This course is designed to help you understand and work with basic through advanced concepts and features of Motion. You will run through a typical series of steps in designing with Motion, including the use of particle dynamics, behaviors, filters and effects, audio, bluescreen keys, text, and keyframing.
Who Should Attend: Motion graphic professionals who need an essential understanding of Apple Motion. Experienced users will also benefit from the many tips and tricks and special exercises.
Prerequisites: Because of the amount of material we cover in class, we do require students to be comfortable using a mouse, opening and saving files, and the general operations of computers. While we will make every reasonable effort to help, students with insuffi cient skills may be required to observe the class lessons or do their best to keep up without slowing down the rest of the class. We highly recommend working with the application tutorial before coming to the course.
