Get a complete guide to using InDesign's powerful animation features. Watch and learn how to animate logos, ads, and even books in fixed layout EPUB format.
- Hi, I'm Diane Burns, and welcome to Creating Animations with Adobe InDesign CC. I'm really excited about this course. We're gonna learn all about InDesign's animation features, which create animations that can be directly exported to fixed layout ePubs. We'll start by looking in detail at each setting in InDesign's Animation panel and how to use the Timing panel. I'll also show you how to, using customized motion paths. We'll build on these basics by learning techniques to create all kinds of different animation effects, including type effects, slideshows, color transitions, and even scrolling text.
We'll take a look at how to build complex animations and how to organize them using both the Layers and Timing panel. Finally, I'll show you how to create your own Custom Animation presets, and how to add features beyond those offered in the Animation panel by editing snippet code and reimporting back into InDesign. In this course, you'll learn all you need to know to master InDesign's animation features and bring exciting new interactive capabilities to your projects. Now, let's get started with Creating Animations with Adobe InDesign CC.
