In this lecture, we introduce the concept of keyframes in After Effects, a fundamental aspect of animation. You’ll learn how to create and manage keyframes to control properties like position, scale, rotation, and opacity over time. We’ll explore the timeline, show you how to set ease-in and ease-out transitions, and explain the significance of timing in creating smooth animations. Understanding keyframes will allow you to bring your animations to life with fluid motion and professional polish.
