Join Nick Harauz for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating and publishing animated 3D text with Motion content: Part 2, part of Final Cut Pro X Guru: Motion Graphics in Motion and After Effects.
- In the last movie, we added a background, some 3D text…that we wrapped around a path, and animated it to bring…the animation to a start.…Let's finalize this by adding another 3D text element…that gives us a gateway to adding almost shapes or objects…into our scene through the use of icons in the…Character panel, as well as add some lights to finalize our…animation, and then publish it over to Final Cut.…So, here is where we left off in the last movie.…I have a title project right now called Going Around…the World that's been included under your Motion Projects…in a chapter 3.8 folder.…
So, if you look inside there, you'll see a…Motion Title Project, which you can double-click…in the folder and start from there.…But if you followed along, you're pretty much ready to go.…So, here we have our animation just to show you.…So far, we have some text that's being wrapped around…a path, making it look like it's going around our…2D Earth here.…Now, what I'd like to do is also have a plane go around…the Earth as well during this animation.…

2/2/2016It starts with the principles of good design: composition and color theory, inspiration and limitations. Nick then works through three chapters of timesaving, practical motion graphics techniques. Learn to create a lower third, animate a Photoshop file, and build dynamic backgrounds in Final Cut Pro. Discover how animate text, create moving 3D text, and build custom transitions in Motion. Then find out how to send FCP clips to After Effects and animate, light, and export your work. By the end of the training, editors will have a basic comprehension of motion graphic design techniques and the essentials for transitioning between these three powerhouse applications.
