TOOLS of the TRADE the Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn PROFESSIONAL MOGRAPH APPS If you’re new to the world of Motion Graphics you might be overwhelmed with the amount of animation software to learn. It seems like every month there is a new software that comes onto the scene and promises to revolutionize the way in which Motion Graphic designers do their work. The fact is, it takes months (if not years) to learn an animation software, so if you pick the wrong one you could literally be wasting significant chunks of your life trying to learn a sub-par application. THE ESSENTIALS These are, of course, not every software in the Motion Graphic Design industry, but they do represent essential applications that you should know in order to prepare yourself for whatever Motion Graphic project a client may throw your way. PHOTOSHOP Price: Part of the Creative Cloud ($50 a month) If something is ‘Photoshopped’ it is understood that an image has been retouched or altered in some way. However, this only scratches the surface of what is possible in this program. Photoshop is about as versatile as a creative software can be, and for a Motion Graphic Designer a working knowledge of Photoshop and it’s features is key. In practical day-to-day use a Motion Designer can use Photoshop to: • Create Matte Paintings • Edit Textures • Design Storyboards • Stitch Images Together • Create a GIF • Layout Cel Animations • Rotoscope This list could easily be over 100 examples long… As a Motion Graphic artist the biggest value of using Photoshop over other photo-editing software is the fact that it integrates so well with the rest of the Adobe Creative Cloud. You can very easily import Photoshop documents into After Effects and vice- versa. The good news is Photoshop is incredibly easy to start using. Just start with a few basic tutorials and move-on from there. Once you have a good handle on the basics you can take your design skills to the next level with Design Bootcamp. TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn This tutorial will teach you everything you need to know to get started with animation in Photoshop! ILLUSTRATOR Price: Part of the Creative Cloud ($50 a month) Adobe Illustrator is similar, yet entirely different in function to Photoshop. While Photoshop deals with bitmap (pixel-based) editing, Illustrator is a vector editing software. If you’re not already familiar with the term, a vector image is simply a file that can be infinitely scaled up without pixelating. This is, of course, very important when designing logos, shape objects, and vector background that will be used in your Motion Graphics workflow. Awesome Adobe Illustrator work from Fraser Davidson. Similar to Photoshop, Illustrator files can very easily be imported into After Effects for animation. If you decide you want to change the look of a logo you can save the file in Illustrator and it will automatically update in AE. AFTER EFFECTS Price: Part of the Creative Cloud ($50 a month) Let’s not beat around the bush here, the most important software to master as a Motion Graphic artist is Adobe After Effects. While you can certainly create motion design projects in other software, there is no single program more versatile and essential to a modern Motion Graphics workflow than After Effects. TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn After Effects is a 2.5D animation software. This means you can do virtually any animation you want as long as it doesn’t involve 3D modeling (although there are some exceptions to this rule). In general After Effects is the primary software used to animate and composite all of your Motion Graphic work together once you’ve designed the storyboards and elements in Photoshop and Illustrator. The following video created for our Explainer Camp was animated in After Effects by Bee Grandinetti. School of Motion: Explainer Camp - Bee Grandinetti There are literally hundreds of features that make After Effects the perfect software for MoGraph artists, but the most important would have to be: The Effects Browser, Timeline, and Composition Panel. The Effects Browser is a panel featuring hundreds of effects and presets that you can easily drag-and-drop onto layers (shapes, images, video, etc.) in your timeline. These effects can do a lot of different things, from color grading your video to creating particle emitters. Effects are incredibly fun to mess around with in After Effects. Nothing beats simply importing a video in After Effects and dropping effects on it to see what each one does. Example of The Effects Browser TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn The Timeline in After Effects isn’t like a normal timeline that you may have used in a video editing software. The After Effects timeline is the place where all of your elements will be organized. After Effects uses a layer based system where the layers on top are above the layers below. Think of a stack of papers. The timeline in After Effects is where you will set keyframes and time your animations. Most of your time as a Motion Graphic Artist will be spent perfecting your animation in the After Effects timeline. The Timeline is shown here. The Composition Panel is what makes After Effects so special and user-friendly. The Composition Panel gives you the ability to see your video in real-time. A project in After Effects feels like an artist’s canvas because of the composition panel. It would be folly to try to create a comprehensive list of all of the potential uses for After Effects, but so you get an idea for what is possible we’ve put together a super short list of creative possibilities: • Character Animation • Simulation Effects • Logo Reveals • Template Creation • Title Animation • Slideshow Design • 3D Compositing • UX/UI Design Mockups • Motion Tracking • Web Design Mockups • Object Removal • Explainer Videos • VFX • Kinetic Typography Once you’re done animating your project in After Effects you can export a finished video and send it to a video editing software to add it to the rest of your project. TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn PREMIERE PRO Price: Part of the Creative Cloud ($50 a month) Premiere Pro, like all of the other software up to this point, is included in the Creative Cloud. For a while there was a lot of debate in the Motion Design industry about which software was the best for compiling all of your work together. Software like Final Cut Pro, Sony Vegas, and Avid Media Composer can all be used to create a finished video once you’re done using After Effects. However, in recent years Adobe has made great strides to integrate After Effects and Premiere together making Premiere more essential for Motion Designers and Video Editors alike. Premiere Pro has tons of advanced color tools and scopes for professional video editing work. Premiere Pro is simply a video editing software. It’s functionality and utility extend far beyond the scope of Motion Design, but practically speaking a Motion Designer will use Premiere Pro to edit their video together and add sound effects and music to their video. Premiere is probably not very different from other video editing software you might have used in the past, but the number of features included in Premiere far exceeds any entry-level video editing software on the market. This tutorial shows you how to use the Essential Graphics Panel in Adobe Premiere Pro to edit after Effects Templates. Premiere is almost twice as popular as it’s closest competitor and used in Motion Design studios around the world. A lot of people argue about video editing software, so save yourself the headache and just start learning Premiere. TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn INTERMEDIATE CINEMA 4D Price: $3,495 (yeah... you read that right) Once you’ve got your toes wet with After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere, it’s time to jump into the world of 3D. For most Motion Graphic artists the software of choice is Cinema 4D. Compared to other 3D modeling software (Maya, 3DS Max, Blender, etc.) Cinema 4D is very user friendly. It’s not inconceivable for you to be able to sit down right now, watch a tutorial, and create something in Cinema 4D. Cinema 4D is used extensively in the Motion Graphics world for modeling, animation, and simulation effects. It’s important to stress the word ‘Motion Graphics’ here. While you certainly will find studios all over Hollywood using C4D, it’s far more common for major studios to use applications like Maya for professional-level VFX work. CINEMA 4D Demo Reel Cinema 4D is also compatible with a few different GPU accelerated render engines that allow you to render out higher-quality 3D models faster on your computer. The most popular render engine in Cinema 4D is Octane. Octane is a third-party engine, which means you will need to purchase it separately from the built-in engines inside of C4D. TOOLS OF THE TRADE The Best Animation and Motion Graphics Software to Learn MOCHA AE Price: Part of the Creative Cloud ($50 a month) Another fantastic tool to get accustomed to is Mocha AE. Mocha is a planar based tracking system, which basically means it tracks motion beyond simply tracking a cluster of pixels. This makes Mocha extremely powerful for Motion Artists who are interested in performing screen replacements, object removals, or rotoscoping.

  • Making a Game Character Move
    Piia Brusi MAKING A GAME CHARACTER MOVE Animation and motion capture for video games Bachelor’s thesis Degree programme in Game Design 2021 Author (authors) Degree title Time Piia Brusi Bachelor of Culture May 2021 and Arts Thesis title 69 pages Making a game character move Animation and motion capture for video games Commissioned by South Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences Supervisor Marko Siitonen Abstract The purpose of this thesis was to serve as an introduction and overview of video game animation; how the interactive nature of games differentiates game animation from cinematic animation, what the process of producing game animations is like, what goes into making good game animations and what animation methods and tools are available. The thesis briefly covered other game design principles most relevant to game animators: game design, character design, modelling and rigging and how they relate to game animation. The text mainly focused on animation theory and practices based on commentary and viewpoints provided by industry professionals. Additionally, the thesis described various 3D animation and motion capture systems and software in detail, including how motion capture footage is shot and processed for games. The thesis ended on a step-by-step description of the author’s motion capture cleanup project, where a jog loop was created out of raw motion capture data. As the topic of game animation is vast, the thesis could not cover topics such as facial motion capture and procedural animation in detail. Technologies such as motion matching, machine learning and range imaging were also suggested as topics worth covering in the future.

  • Blender Instructions a Summary
    BLENDER INSTRUCTIONS A SUMMARY Attention all Mac users The first step for all Mac users who don’t have a three button mouse and/or a thumb wheel on the mouse is: 1.! Go under Edit menu 2.! Choose Preferences 3.! Click the Input tab 4.! Make sure there is a tick in the check boxes for “Emulate 3 Button Mouse” and “Continuous Grab”. 5.! Click the “Save As Default” button. This will allow you to navigate 3D space and move objects with a trackpad or one-mouse button and the keyboard. Also, if you prefer (but not critical as you do have the View menu to perform the same functions), you can emulate the numpad (the extra numbers on the right of extended keyboard devices). It means the numbers across the top of the standard keyboard will function the same way as the numpad. 1.! Go under Edit menu 2.! Choose Preferences 3. Click the Input tab 4.! Make sure there is a tick in the check box for “Emulate Numpad”. 5.! Click the “Save As Default” button. BLENDER BASIC SHORTCUT KEYS OBJECT MODE SHORTCUT KEYS EDIT MODE SHORTCUT KEYS The Interface The interface of Blender (version 2.8 and higher), is comprised of: 1. The Viewport This is the 3D scene showing you a default 3D object called a cube and a large mesh-like grid called the plane for helping you to visualize the X, Y and Z directions in space. And to save time, in Blender 2.8, the camera (left) and light (right in the distance) has been added to the viewport as default.

  • A Procedural Interface Wrapper for Houdini Engine in Autodesk Maya
    A PROCEDURAL INTERFACE WRAPPER FOR HOUDINI ENGINE IN AUTODESK MAYA A Thesis by BENJAMIN ROBERT HOUSE Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, André Thomas Committee Members, John Keyser Ergun Akleman Head of Department, Tim McLaughlin May 2019 Major Subject: Visualization Copyright 2019 Benjamin Robert House ABSTRACT Game development studios are facing an ever-growing pressure to deliver quality content in greater quantities, making the automation of as many tasks as possible an important aspect of modern video game development. This has led to the growing popularity of integrating procedural workflows such as those offered by SideFX Software’s Houdini FX into the already established de- velopment pipelines. However, the current limitations of the Houdini Engine plugin for Autodesk Maya often require developers to take extra steps when creating tools to speed up development using Houdini. This hinders the workflow for developers, who have to design their Houdini Digi- tal Asset (HDA) tools around the limitations of the Houdini Engine plugin. Furthermore, because of the implementation of the HDA’s parameter display in Maya’s Attribute Editor when using the Houdini Engine Plugin, artists can easily be overloaded with too much information which can in turn hinder the workflow of any artists who are using the HDA. The limitations of an HDA used in the Houdini Engine Plugin in Maya as a tool that is intended to improve workflow can actually frustrate and confuse the user, ultimately causing more harm than good.

  • Free Software Beyond Radical Politics: Negotiations of Creative and Craft Autonomy in Digital Visual Media Production
    Free software beyond radical politics: negotiations of creative and craft autonomy in digital visual media production Draft of article under revision. Not to be cited without permission. Version: 15 Jan 2016 Author: Julia Velkova Abstract Free and open source software development, and the technological practices of hackers have been broadly recognized as fundamental for the formation of political cultures and fostering democracy in the digital mediascape. This article seeks to broaden the scope of knowledge about the role of free software for political engagement by discussing its relevance in the practices of other actors, beyond activists and hackers. The study explores its role and uses in the practices of media creators such as free-lancing digital artists, animators and technicians who work in various roles for the contemporary digital visual media industries. Drawing on ethnographically collected material about the media uses of three popular free software tools, Blender for 3D animation and sculpting, Synfig for 2D vector animation and Krita for digital painting, the study shows that free software in the context of media work contexts enables creators to notably extend their sense of creative autonomy, skills and creative expressivity, yet paradoxically this sense does not lead to resistence or critical engagement, but strengthens even more some of the imaginaries and allure that the creative industries have while not responding to some of its major flows such as precarity of labor. Keywords digital visual media, free and open source software, material politics, craft autonomy, media industries 1. Introduction Media practices, such as free and open source software development, and the technological experiments of hackers have been broadly recognized as fundamental for the formation of political cultures and fostering democracy in the digital mediascape.

  • Surrealist Aesthetics
    SURREALIST AESTHETICS Using Surrealist Aesthetics to Explore a Personal Visual Narrative about Air Pollution Peggy Li Auckland University of Technology Master of Design 2020 A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Design, Digital Design P a g e | 1 Abstract “Using Surrealist Aesthetics to Explore a Personal Visual Narrative about Air Pollution”, is a practice-based research project focusing on the production of a poetic short film that incorporates surrealist aesthetics with motion capture and digital simulation effects. The project explores surrealist aesthetics using visual effects combined with motion capture techniques to portray the creator’s personal experiences of air pollution within a poetic short film form. This research explicitly portrays this narrative through the filter of the filmmaker’s personal experience, deploying an autoethnographic methodological approach in the process of its creation. The primary thematic contexts situated within this research are surrealist aesthetics, personal experiences and air pollution. The approach adopted for this research was inspired by the author’s personal experiences of feeling trapped in an air-polluted environment, and converting these unpleasant memories using a range of materials, memories, imagination, and the subconscious mind to portray the negative effects of air pollution. The overall aim of this process was to express my experiences poetically using a surrealist aesthetic, applied through
