- One of Motion's core strengths is to work…on your projects in real time,…or close to real time, while you continue…to fine-tune the various assets and objects…that make up your composition.…Let's see some of this strength in action.…So here I am in a chapter of three point four…motion project that you'll find available…in your motion projects folder.…It's called Working in Real Time.…And we've already applied an asset…from the content library inside of Motion.…It's that of an atom that's essentially a series…of replicated lines, but you can see it already has…a bit of animation to it.…
So I just hit the spacebar in order to play this back…and sort of demonstrate some of the real-time…playback capabilities of Motion.…It will try to playback in real time, and if it doesn't,…it will simply drop the frame rate.…But the great thing is we can continue to play back…and get a sense for how our project would work.…Feel free to pay your attention to this top left-hand…corner where you can see the frames per second count…

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.
