Create Animations with Shapes and Gradients in After Effects

Create animations in After Effects using shapes and gradients, aligning with rulers, guides, and a proportional grid. Use a repeater to duplicate shapes, then animate scale and opacity with keyframes.

Create a pattern using a grid and markers, duplicate shapes, and apply a repeater to generate copies; animate scale and opacity with keyframes and ease the motion.

Edit and duplicate shape layers in After Effects, align to the grid, rotate 180 degrees, and use a repeater to create a repeating abstract pattern with keyframes guiding the scale.

Explore the grid and shape layers, use the pen tool to create shapes, and animate paths from a center point for a cohesive look.

learn to animate multiple paths by manually adjusting vertex points, keyframing with stopwatch, and offsetting paths for subtle motion; use shortcuts like G, V, and repeaters to accelerate the process.

Explore creating vibrant gradients with gradient overlay in after effects, customizing colors from red to blue, adding turbulence displacement, glow, blur, and masks to reveal layered shapes with soft edges.

Explore how shaped layers and the pattern repeater create a striking pattern, while turbulent and fractal noise add a starry background and edge displacement in After Effects.

Apply a gradient ramp to a moving blob using separate shape layers, then animate with the wiggle expression on position and a camera for depth, without keyframes or plugins.

Explore creating breathing, living animations in After Effects by adjusting shapes and gradients, working in a 3D camera world with 3D layers, and fine-tuning text placement and color.

Create a layered background texture in After Effects with yellow and blue solids, masked and feathered toward a centered gradient, using curves and a lightning effect on an adjustment layer.

Learn to create the main text 'school' in After Effects, using a precomp, glass and blobby effects on a bg texture, kerning tweaks, and a gradient glow for animation.

Create texture motion in after effects by building a motion composition, applying blur and glow, and using gradient ramp and masked wipes. Design the background triangles to complete the animation.

In After Effects, create a grid on a solid, draw and duplicate a triangle, center its anchor, and keyframe scale, rotation, glow, and blur for a dynamic background triangle.

Create animated textures for text with gradients and backgrounds in After Effects, using glass and blobby lies, alphabets as textures, and threshold and radius with a grid for final render.
