    Now that you are a whiz at compositing layers, animating and applying effects in Adobe After Effects it's time to dig into specific areas and continue to gain fluency in this mighty box o' tools.

  • 1. Stylize your work with Painting and Cloning: Paint is extremely useful...even for those who are drawing -impaired!

  • 2. Emphasize dramatic moments by adding time effects to your footage and time animation to music.

  • 3. Smooth out your handheld camera footage with Motion Stabilization. Learn how to use Motion Tracking to change or attach elements to your footage.

  • 4. Create organic motion relationships with Basic Expressions: Learn to apply attributes from one effect to another using basic expressions with no need for scripting knowledge.

  • 5. Make your Text dance, blend and twirl with Text Animators.

  • 6. Sculpt your projects by bringing your work into 3D, adding lights, cameras and shadows.
