Motion Graphics Week 2: Easy Ease and Text

This week we learnt about tween, and easing. Easing is the practice in animation is a term used to describe the transition between keyframes in animation.
This sketch should help clear that up. See how there's more frames at the height of the bounce of the ball

In After Effects, easing is made easy (ha.) by just right clicking the frames and adding 'Ease In' 'Ease Out' or 'Easy Ease' which adds both in and out.

We also learnt about the motion editor which can be used to make custom eases.

Then we did some exercises with animating text in AE. Including adding animators to get more interesting animations such as 'wrigglers'. Which are fun.
Here are some snippets from the tutorial class .pdf
