In this video I’ll show you how to create kinetic 3D typography in After Effects. These techniques could work well for similar music or lyric videos, or anything the needs a bold, bombastic animation approach.
This isn’t a step by step tutorial on the whole segment of animation I showcase at the beginning. That would take hours and be a waste of your time.
Instead I’ll show you the techniques I use to create work like this. Camera animation techniques in After Effects. How to easily create a guide track for the text. Expressions for overshoot on camera moves. Using match cuts to blend different animations together. And using effects, layer modes and other tutorials to create a bespoke look for your animation.
