Book description
In this best-selling guide to Motion 4, you’ll create
eight sophisticated projects including a 3D show promo, a
network-style title sequence, a DVD motion menu, and an actual temp
effect used in Overture Film’s Traitor. Each chapter
represents a complete lesson, with a commercial-quality project to
work through as you learn. Master trainer Mark Spencer starts with
the fundamentals of motion graphics and quickly moves into
compositing, animation, motion graphics design, visual effects
design, and the world of 3D. The book is fully revised to take
advantage of the software’s new features: you’ll
explore 3D shadows, reflections, and depth of field;
“fly” a camera from one object to another; ripple text
characters on and off the screen with ease; animate date and time
sequences automatically; and master Motion’s remarkable new
linking behavior. Along the way, you’ll work with particles,
generators, filters, effects, templates, greenscreen mattes,
keying, tracking, paint, and more. Whether you’re just
entering the field or are already an accomplished motion graphics
pro, this book will have you designing in Motion in record
time.
