What You Will Learn?

  • Have you ever needed to describe someone or something in your video? Maybe mention their name on screen, what they do, combined with a cool animation?.
  • Perhaps you need some animated graphics for your Premiere Pro video project?.
  • That’s what I am teaching you today!.
  •  .
  • This class is part two of a three-part series on Motion Graphics Templates..
  • Each class in the series uses the knowledge and outcomes of the previous classes and builds on it..

  • There is a bit more to learn about motion graphics templates that I didn’t cover in this class. I wanted to keep it compact and give you a comprehensive overview..
  • However, if you are interested in learning more about motion graphics templates and how to refine them, join the next class of this series, How to Animate Transitions & Backgrounds in After Effects, where I am covering how to create a looping template and transition slides of the same style as well as alternative expressions techniques to use in the lower third and template designs..
