Skillshare – Build Branded Graphics with Animated Lower Thirds in Adobe After Effects

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.

You can head to part one of this course, if you would like to get a full learning experience and come back to part two after that Check out part one now.

Why You Should Watch

What we are creating in this course is a great addition to class up a YouTube or talking heads video. You will gain a set of branded graphics, to personalise your video marketing and infuse it with a pop of colour.

I will take you through the process of animating a title and subtitle with a frame, adding expressions to create a responsive design and setting up your template in the Essential Graphics Panel for use in Premiere Pro.

Who This Class Is For

This class is perfect for intermediate learners.
You might be more at ease with After Effects, if you have used it before but I will take you through everything step by step.

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.
