Let's jump into the first video. 3. Master Mindset for Motion Design: In this video, I want to talk about the mindset when it comes to learning motion graphics or to be honest, anything. I'll cover some of the best practices that I use as well as some of the practices from this book. It's a great book by James Clear, but we're going to talk about it in a second. Now, the three phases of learning anything is learn, practice, and teach. First, you're going to learn from me. This is straightforward. Secondly, it is important to practice because if you learn and do not practice, then trust me. It doesn't bring results. The important thing is for you to practice. Then once you practice, once you have projects that you've created, even if it's the absolutely exact replica of what I've created, I will still recommend to share it with other students and tell what it is that you've learned, what it is that you've done. Because when you teach, there's just something absolutely magical happens in our brains and you learn a lot better. Now, coming to this book, I want to show you a graph. It's this graph here, 1% better every day. If you become 1% better every day, 1.01 to the power of 365, it's equal to 37.78. In simple words, it means that if you become better by 1% in one year, you'll be 37 times better. If you become 1% better every day, that's it. However, if you become worse by 1%, you'll be almost equal to zero. 0.99 to the power 365 equals 0.03, which is basically zero. When it comes to learning, just remember this. You just need 1% improvement every day for one year and you'll be absolutely next level. Now, if you really want to dive deep, I'll give you a couple of other tips as well. So I mean, you can definitely read the book, but I'll quickly go through. Basically, you need to create a new habit of learning. In order to create a new habit of learning, there are four steps. First of all, make it obvious. If you want to learn, put reminders just throughout your house. Put written reminders, put your computer, make sure that you visually see it and that it is obvious, like it's easy to notice. Secondly, make it attractive. Do something you enjoy right after you learn. If you like going for walks, then go for work. If you like eating fruits, then go ahead and eat fruits, but make sure to give yourself some a gift so that it is attractive for you. Now, sep number three is make it easy. In other words, if you don't learn usually and you all of a sudden start learning for 4 hours a day, that's a bit too much. Make sure you progress bit by bit so little improvements. Don't just start learning the whole day and then your brain explodes and you don't want to do it anymore. And number four, make it satisfying. You can track your progress. You can either mark days, you can mark the number of videos, you watched whatever works for you. And this is just a quick overview of the four steps. In this book, James Clear gives so many more details as to how to create new habits. So if you want to create new habits and change your life, I really recommend this book. By the way he also talks about how to get rid of bad habits. So if you want, you can take a look, but other than that, let's start learning. If you have any questions, let me know. Other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 4. Download All Files & Resources: Welcome. In this video, I want to show you how you can access your student exclusive resources. Below this video, you will find the project and resources section. If you open it up and scroll down, you'll be able to see the student Exclusive resources and the downloadable resources link. If you click on that link, it's going to take you to Google Drive or you will find the templates, project files, sound effects, everything I used and everything you need to use in order to complete the scores. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll seeing the next video. 5. Why Apple Feels Premium: Visual Design & Motion Principles: Welcome. In this video, I'd like to break down why Apple feels premium and expensive. Let's understand their visual designs and motion principles. Okay, we have a number of examples. This is the design principles by Apple. If you take a look at any of these slides that they have, everything is minimalistic. It's very clear. Everything is aligned. Oftentimes with minimalist, less is more. So we are trying to use as little as possible to get most out of it. If we take a look at their website, minimalism and anything that feels expensive usually has a lot of space. So they use space to their advantage. It's not like it's empty, but it is expensive because spacing means freedom. Usually, freedom and premium expensive. It's like it's all interconnected. So if we take a look at their websites, a lot of free space. By the way, they also keep a similar design everywhere. Lots of white, lots of space. Talking about latest updates and specifically about the liquid glass, and this is the effect we're learning how to do. Some people love it, some people hit it. They keep the same principles. Just instead of it being all colorful, they once again, trying to make it even more minimalistic so that there's no colors. It's all the same style instead of it being these many colors, it's just one minimalistic look. Some people love it, and people hate it. And anyway, if you are here, you'll know how to do this. If you take a look at motion principles, then everything is intentional. A great word to describe it is it feels tactile. If you ever used Apple products, like, it's so different from any other products that exist. I used to be a Windows PC user, and I switched last year have Samsung, HDC, and other mobile phones, and then at some point, I switch to Apple as well. The attention to detail is just absolutely next level. So if you ever tried Apple products and compared to competitors, everything is very tactile and it's just everything feels expensive. Like, it's made to be expensive. Even Apple boxes are absolutely amazing. And this is one of the reasons why people keep their boxes because the boxes themselves, even though it's just like a piece paper, it is so good. So let's recap minimalism. Less is more. Generous spacing. Everything is aligned. Things feel intentional and tactile, and the latest update liquid glass. If you have any questions, let me know better than that. I'll see you in the next video. 6. Preparing Apple-Style UI for After Effects: Screenshot + Photoshop Workflow: Welcome. In this and a couple of upcoming videos, I'm going to show you how to create UI designs in advance. Now, something you can do is to create it straight and after effects. But I found out, unfortunately, I found a hard that it's actually a lot easier to prepare things in advance, especially if you will use it many times. And for this example, we're going to use Instagram. And on top of that, in this video, we're going to use Screenshot plus Photoshop, and in other three upcoming videos, we're going to use other tools to create UI designs. So first of all, let's take screenshot. On MacBook, it's Shift Command three. Pressing that, I'm creating a screenshot, and then I have to come to Photoshop. Here I'm going to come to file new or I can just go ahead and press Command N, and we're going to create the custom 1920 by 1080 pixels because that's usually the kind of videos that I create and we'll be able to use the after effects. Now, we're going to just drag our screenshot here, press okay. Now we're going to have to right click on our screenshot and click on RSR Layer. If we don't do it, I'm going to show you what happens. For this specific task, we will need a Marquee tool. We can activate it by pressing a shortcut M, or you can press shortcut ads like the Move tool or selection tool. Press M. And if I select and I select the screenshot, I press and delete. We're not able to do it because we need to first rsturize the layer. At this point, it's a smart layer. So if I double click on it, it's going to open it in a new window. However, after we rasterize the layer, by double clicking, we're going to open the layer style. If I select anything here right now and press and delete, we'll be able to delete parts of the image, which is exactly what we want. So I'm going to select and delete this part. By the way, we can also press Shift and select other parts of the image, but it's easier for me to do it piece by piece. So delete this part, select and delete this part. Actually, let's make a bigger selection. So. Now, let's also delete it up until here. Delete. Great. And if I click here and color overlay the background, this is what we have. By pressing Command zero, I'm able to fit it to the screen. By the way, on Windows, instead of command, you just have to press control. Other than that everything is the same. And in order to learn shortcuts, you can come to help, search for shortcuts, keyboard shortcuts, open it, and search, for example, for fit, fit on screen, Command zero. Now the next thing we want to do is want to make sure this is aligned and it is in the middle. In order to do it, we need to cut this space, this space from the top. So I'm going to select the screenshot, set the Marquee tool, make a selection. Roughly, and then zoom in by pressing on Option or Alt on PC, making sure I select exactly what I need and nothing more. And now I'm going to press on delete. Actually, we just cut this part as well. I didn't actually notice that. So we need to cut a bit less. So let's cut a bit less to here. Zoom in Perfect. Present, delete. Command zoo. Okay, great. So now we have the top part cut precisely, we have the bottom part cut precisely. Well, this part doesn't really matter very, very small. And now we need to select the layer and the screenshot together, and we're going to press here. The screenshot is going to align vertically. Now, in order for it to align horizontally, we have to do the same thing. We have to cut it from the right and from the left so that it's precisely here, cut till here. And it's cut until here. So let's do exactly that. Let's do selection over here, move selection. By the way, you can also move this selection with the keys. So by pressing right, it's going to move the right. Left, it's going to move to the left. Present delete. So we're going to select the screen chart, present delete, do exactly the same thing on the opposite side. Perfect delete, command zero. And now by selecting both of these, by the way, make sure to deselect whatever you have in the screen because it's going to just work weirdly. So make sure to diselect or just press somewhere and then put our screenshot in the very middle. The next thing we need to do is we need to cut every single piece out so that if we want to animate every single piece, we want to make sure that we have access to every single piece instead of just one huge screenshot. We're going to do it with the Marquee tool as well, sir. Press on now we need to make a selection. For example, this part here, selected, and we're going to press Command X or Control X. Sorry, we need to select the screenshot, Command X. We need to press Shift Command V, and we're going to paste it in exactly the same position. If we press Command V, which is something we can do, it's going to paste it, but in different location, which is not something we want. So Shift Command V or Shift Control V on Windows. Select the screenshot, and now we have to do it for every single piece that we want to animate. So we'll do it for this part. And this part. Just make sure to select the screenshot. If you don't select the screenshot and press in Command X, there's just nothing to paste. So make sure to select the screenshot. Okay. And now, if I ds the screenshot, we're going to have every single piece on its own. So what we can do is we can actually go ahead and delete the original screenshot because now we have every single layer separately. The next thing we need to do is we need to cut every single layer precisely. I know it's a bit tedious, but this is something we have to do. The reason for that is because the ankle point is in the middle of each layer. So, for example, the ancho point for this video, it's not going to be in the middle of the circle. It's going to be around here. Like, it's going to be in the middle the cut out. And the same for this part. So it's going to be around here. It's not going to be in between these two letters. And in order to customize it to how it should be, we do need to cut every single piece. So for example, with this one, once again, select the Marquee tool selection, select select **** and do it. Now, if I make it bigger and by pressing option, I can scale it like so. You can see the encapoint is right around here. However, for this layer, the encapoint is over here. And for one to be in the middle, once again, we have to cut out every single piece. How Okay, now that we've made these cutouts, whatever we scale is going to scale uniformly. So it's absolutely good to go. Now, one important thing to mention is that, for example, my name or any sort of text that is on the screen, it's a picture. If we want it to be text, we need to create the text, and we need to match exactly. So, for example, if I want to animate this text specifically here, like my name, I will have to click here, and I will have to write my name. Let's make it white. Let's search for Instagram font. What font does Instagram use? Okay, so they do use some sort of sands, but which is a custom built for them. So let's just choose one of these. We just want to make sure it is similar. It doesn't have to be the exact ft. Okay. Like so now we need to make it now we need to make the text black, and maybe move it a bit lower. Like so. And now, if we select this one. Well, there are a couple of things we can do with this. One thing we can do is just overlay color and make a white overlay pressure kay. And then once we have our text, we're going to have our text. We are doing this is because we want to customize it later in after effects. If we don't want to customize later in after effects, we can just leave it as it is. An important thing to consider as well, is if you want to reuse this multiple times, it is easier to do it in Photoshop first, then you're going to have this file. You'll be able to put in after effect. You'll have the text layers ready. Or you can build text layers in after effects. Whatever works best for you. I would say, if you use the project once, you can do both, but if you are going to use a project multiple times, then create these texts in Photoshop from the very beginning. Okay? Now, we have to save this project person come ad as, come to Desktop and save desktop. Now let's open after effects. New project now we'll find our file, and we will drop it over here. Now, these are a couple of important settings. First of all, go for composition retain layer sizes or composition. Don't use the footage because if you click on footage, it's going to import it. It's one big image, and we don't want that. The reason why we did all the work in Photoshop so that we have many different layers. That's the most important now in terms of the layer options, layer options, for example, in Photoshop, if I double click, these are your options layer styles. And basically, it's what it's referring to. So, for example, if we merge or if you want to have it editable, to be honest, it does not matter in this case, because we're not using any. So if you click on Okay, it's going to import it as a composition. We can click and open it, and there you go. Now, if a person command Y to create a solid, set a white background place it, so we can delete the black layer and there we go. We have our Instagram page. Now, you will see that Vlad Se tv, which is my name, if I click on it, create, convert to editable text. If I click on it and I press in command, I'm able to customize this text. This is the reason why we created this text in Photoshop. But for my handle, for example, we cannot change it because it's just an image. One thing we can do is we can just write it, put it here, decrease the scale position roughly like that, and then we just need to actually, let's deselect. This is layer 13. So if we deselect it, enable this one this is our handle. We can do it both ways. If you will work on a project multiple times, then yes, go ahead and do it in Photoshop from the very beginning. If not, you can do it once in after effects and forget about this. Well, this is how you prepare your UI design in Photoshop. Now, let's get into the next video, and I'll show you another way to do this. If you have any questions, let me know. But than that, I'll see you next video. 7. Preparing Apple-Style UI for After Effects: Screenshot + Illustrator Workflow: Welcome. In this video, we're going to explore the second option to create UI design. And in this case, we're going to use a screenshot plus in Illustrator. The way you do this is you take screenshot, and then you come to Illustrator. You can also press Command like in Photoshop to create a custom document. 1920 by 1080, create Illustrator does work slightly differently compared to Photoshop, and I'm going to show you in a second. I downloaded this picture from the Apple website, and I'm going to press over here at the end, and I'm going to press Option and Shift so that it scales from the middle and uniformly. Something like that, select the selection tool, move it a little bit lower. Now, the way we're going to do this with Illustrator is we're going to literally recreate this thing by hand. And to do this, we're going to create a new layer by pressing here. And now let's recreate things. First of all, pressing a rectangle fill. Let's select something of an opposite color. I'm going to zoom in with option, and let's create something like this, and we will customize it now. So I want to make sure it fits the edges exactly where it's supposed to be. Now, we also don't need the stroke, so I'm just going to press here to make sure we don't have any stroke. And the last thing we're going to do is we can drag these layers to make sure we have the rounded edges like soap, and here's for you to see what's going on. Now, we also need to create this whip at the very end, and we're going to create another layer. We're going to press on the pentel. We'll start around here, pull it down, and then I'm going to do it, like so. Actually, let's do it like this. So by holding the cursor, I can actually stretch it out and make it smooth. So we'll do it to this point, then we need to do it to around here. And you can see that we have this handle coming from the previous point. So we need to press option and move it, like so let's move this one a little bit as well. And now we're just going to click here to finish the sweep at the very end. Now, let's recreate the text by pressing T. This is a shortcut to open the text. And now that's right here. I Apple uses SF Pro font. You can download it from the official Apple website, as well. Let's try regular. Green press on command space to disable the editing the text. Now, let's move it here and increase in size. I'm going to press Shift, as well to make sure it scales uniformly. Now, I'm going to move it with arrow keys. And now we also need to make it gray. Perfect. And let's do the same thing with the bottom text, as well. Actually, I just did a little mistake. I put it into layer one, the text. Let's put it to layer three, and let's create names. So actually, I put the whip here as well. So layer two is going to be bubble. This is going to be text. So we have our text. Let's make sure it fits perfectly as well. And let's put it. So you will also notice that they have different variations, and in this one, it's probably not regular. It's a bit more than regular. So let's try medium. Actually, this could be regular, the spacing between the words slightly bigger so we can increase it over here. To fit perfectly. Now we just need to make sure it's a slightly different color. So let's come to fill. Come here. Make it gray. Perfect. Now, let's create N layer. Let's select our rectangle tool, and let's create a huge rectangle. Roughly like so. Now let's make sure it is perfect. Let's strike it to here. This is going to be our screen. Okay, now let's create our super smooth edges like that. Okay? Let's also put it at the bottom so that we can see things. And we'll call it iPhone background. Now, in the same layer, we can also create another one, and we can do it like so. And for this, we're just going to need to change the color to slightly different. We'll put it to red for now, like that. We need to do exactly the same thing. Now we need to drag it with option to duplicate it, put it in exactly the same position, and this one is not going to have the rounded edges. We can actually just lower it down. So now if we change the colors, by the way, the way we can change it is we can just drag this one to left. For this one, we are going to click here for other rectangles. Let's click over here. For this one. Let's click over here. Interesting, slightly different. So let's make sure it's exactly the right one. Perfect. I'm going to select this one. Okay, perfect. Now, we'll put it back into exactly the same place. By the way, the rectangle at the bottom, we can lower it down just a little bit. And let's create text. This is what we have so far. All I'm doing for this part is duplicating the white background to create a black outline of the iPhone. Well, you get the idea. For the sake of time, I'm not going to go through the whole recreation. At the end, what we do is we delete the layer that we don't need, which is that one. We put this layer to the bin. Now, if you want to customize every single text, then you do need to create a layer for every single text. So we can put this one here, and this will be, can I call you back? Okay, great. Now into pressing Command S and save it as Adobe Illustrator. Let's save it on desktop. Press okay. Now, when we come to after effects, let's drag this thing in. Make sure to set the import kind as composition. Once again, if you don't set this composition is going to be imported as one big image. So composition, layer size or document size. This is important as well. Basically, if you set the document size, then every single text, every single object is going to be the size of the composition, which is going to be 1920 by 1080, which is not something we want. We want it to be the size because if we use the document size, and I'm going to show you quickly. Ever I click, we have the text today, but basically, it's the size of the composition. That's not what we want. If I go back and import it with layer size, now we're going to open the composition now I can press on I message and I'm able to move it around. And I can select actually absolutely anything here. But if I didn't do it, I would have to mess around with pressing P and change the position of every single thing this way because we would only be able to touch the one that's on the top because it's the layer size. Now, the great thing about Illustrator is, for example, the bubble. I can right click create great shapes from vector layer, which means that it's now a shape in after effect. And if I want to let's say change it, I absolutely can change it. The only problem with illustrator is that when the text is imported into after effects, it's not actually text. Let me give you better explanation. When you import the illustrator file, it imports text and all objects as shapes. If you want to customize the text, we need to import the Photoshop file because if we import the Photoshop file, then you can convert the Photoshop text into editable text in after effect. One thing I showed you in the very beginning is that when you create an Illustrator file, I just went create new and create a custom size 1920 by 1080. But here's the big problem. When we export this file as a photoshop file and then import that into after effects, we have problem. We don't have layers. It's just being imported as an image. We don't want that. What we want is for it to be imported as many different layers. The way we're able to solve this issue is if we go to new and create a web large. So if you go to web, you can create a web large. And because it's being treated as a different format because when we go into export, for example, let's export 15 and let's use Porto shop Export. When we use this color model and potentially some other settings. You can see it's being imported and we don't have this pop up that would be able to customize it with. And now, what we have to do is we have to press on Command A and press Command C, Command N to create new weblarge and paste it here. Now, you will see that we have just one layer, and we have all of our stuff in one layer. And what we have to do is we have to click on the layer, click on this burger, release to layer sequence. Now, everything is its own layer, and we have to drag it out of this layer and we can delete this layer because we didn't need it anymore. Now, if we go into file export as Photoshop, use artboards, and let's do this 116. Okay? Now, let's import it into after effects. You see, we have this pop up. We are able to choose it and press okay. Double click, now we have the text and something where we previously slap is the issue with the Illustrator files is that this is not a text. This is a SVG file. And right now, we have this text. We've compressing Command C, come to the SVG file, and now we can right click Create Editable text. Now we have this text, and we're able to customize it. If you have any questions, let me know. But than that, I'll see you next video. 8. Preparing Apple-Style UI for After Effects: Figma + Illustrator Workflow: Welcome. In this video, I'm going to show you the third way to create UI designs. And in this video, we're going to use Figma and Illustrator. Figma can be used for free. There are some pay plans, but we're going to use it completely for free, so you can come to figma.com. Also, you can download an app on your computer. So it's going to look something like this. As you can see, it's very, very similar. The experience on an application is a little bit smoother than in the browser. So if you have an opportunity, go ahead and download it. If not, you can use it in the browser. But for the sake of smoothness, we are going to use the application. So if you go to Templates and Tools, we can search, for example, for Mac UI, and we can go ahead and open it, and boom, let me zoom in. There you go. A ton of stuff here. Which looks exactly like the official McBook page. We can go and search for different ones. For this one, for example, let's open it up. Okay, so a ton of things here click here, click here. So it does look like it is from Mac. Now, let me show you how to actually work with this. So actually, let's search for iPhone UI. Okay, so I just opened iPhone UI Los This is what it looks like from both sides. Can even click on special iPhones. Anyway, so what we're going to do is we're going to click here, and we will just make sure that we've selected the right thing, and we're going to right click Copy Paste and copy SVJ. And now we're going to open Illustrator, Command N web large, create, and here we're just going to pay. Command V. And there we have our iPhone. You will notice that the wallpaper disappeared. That's totally okay because that wallpaper is not an SVJ file. And what we did in Figma is we specifically copied SV. In one of the future videos, you'll see me having the same issue, and I'll show you how to solve it. Now, we can also open layers, and we're going to see all the objects. So from here to here. If we disable this group where all the objects are located, then that's how it's going to look. The first thing we can do is we need to select all the objects and take them out of the groups. Like so. Then we need to select our layer click on the Burger release layer sequence. And now we can select all the layers and track them out. So now every single thing is its own layer. And by the way, we can I'm not sure what these were used for, but we can get rid of them for now. Okay, so we can move every single bit however we want. We can go ahead and save this file. So command as to save. Let's save it over here. Person okay. Now let's go to aftereffects and let's go ahead and drag what we've just created. Make sure to set composition and layer sizes. Okay, double click, and there you go. Okay? Let's see what was this one. Okay, we can probably get rid of this one. Let's press Command Y to create a solid, put it on the background, and let's create another solid. Let's make it gray. Press Okay. I'm just going to find which part we need to track mat. So we need to track mat we need to track MD degree to just parented it. So we need to track MD degree to layer 26 in order to basically change the background color. Or we can go ahead and just right click create shapes from vector layers and disable this one and change the color of the layer itself. So fill, we can change its color like so. And there you go. Pretty easy, pretty fast. Figma is really great. To be honest, I discovered it not that long ago, and it absolutely just changes everything. It's absolutely great. You can search for any kind of UI. So, for example, YouTube, UI, let's open it. And there you go. If we zoom in, this is what we have. We can just go ahead and select this, for example, the channel. So this part, we can just go ahead, select it, right click, do the same thing, and good to go. Now, one really great thing about the SVJ files is that we can make sure that these files rasterize. What that means is, for example, let's press and sim S and we'll make it big. And you will see that it's starting to lose quality as it's getting bigger. But if we press on this button here, even though we're increasing it in size, it's staying the same quality. So this is the great thing about SVG files and about Illustrator because we're able to do this. If you want to really zoom in, for example, or really increase the size of something, we can do that with this, which saves just yeah, it just absolutely saves the day. So if you want, you can go ahead and select everything and click on this button here and it's going to do. So that's how you do it with Figma and with Illustrator and with After Effects. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 9. Preparing Apple-Style UI for After Effects: PDF + Illustrator Workflow: Welcome. This is the last video of creating our UI designs, and in this video, we are going to use PDFs into Illustrator into after effects. Let me show you how to do this. Let's go to Safari, File, Export as PDF. And there should be a similar option in Crombo Browser. But for this one, let's go and save it on our desktop as YouTube. Then we're going to go into Illustrator. There are a couple of ways you can open this PDF file. You can either rect connect open with Illustrator. And that's going to open the Illustrator page, and there you go. This is our whole YouTube page, and guess what? We have a big number of objects here, and every single object can be moved and customized, as you can see on the screen, which is exactly what we want. Another way you might want to try this is you already have a document, and then you try dragon drop our YouTube here. However, you will find that it is imported as an image and not as objects or layers. And that's a bit of a problem because we don't want that. So in order to avoid that, you want to make sure you either go to file open and then you search for TPDFPreseno, close, and you can see it's imported the way we need to be imported. We can move things around. If we don't do it, as you can see, we can move it as a large image. Or we can go ahead, right click open with Illustrator. Now, unfortunately, as you can see on the screen, the text is not in the best shape. In order to solve this, we will have to recreate every single text that we have on the screen. Fortunately, we don't need to have so many videos, so we can just go ahead and delete them to, let's say about here, everything. Then we can press on Shift O and drag this thing up to make it a bit smaller, maybe not so small, something like this. Then just press on scape. And a couple of things we can do. Yes, we can go ahead and edit the text so that it's the right one. We can go ahead and delete the text, put the right text in. By the way, you can just open the PDF file make it huge. So okay, it's this one. So I can just go ahead and copy the text. From here, let me just select it. Control C, or command C, come here, paste it in. Boom. Good to go. We have exactly the same text. Maybe we do need to change the colors, so let's make it black. Okay, now we need to go into file, save as it be Illustrator, save Then we come to aftereffects, jag our Illustrator file, trobin position and layer sizes. Double click? Oh, I forgot to do a big thing. We come here, release layer sequence. Now, we need to select everything. Drag it out of that layer, and now we need to save it. So let's come to After Effects Command Z. And here, file, save as Illustrator, YouTube, yes, replace the previous one. Press Okay. Come here. YouTube. Now we open it, and there we have it. Now if you scroll it at the very bottom, click on layer one, and let's create a solid above it by pressing Command Y. Let's make it Y, just like YouTube. And there you go. We have our Facebook page. There you go, we have our YouTube page. And now, if you want to change the text, yes, we can go ahead and just add our text on top or once again, we can do it in Illustrator. And then we will have to export that as a photoshop file important here. One thing I can recommend you to save the headache with the text is if you're going to reuse it in the future, actually, go ahead and save in after effects file, like a template. And therefore, in the future, when you need to use it, you will already have text from after effects or from Photoshop, whichever option works best for you, and you'll be able to reuse it. The way you can save a template for after effect, just save the after effects file somewhere you will know, for example, I can save it YouTube. I can close this file by pressing Shift Control Option Command S, then open the after effects file, and there you have it. This is the template. In the future, you'll be able to reuse it. So, for example, let's close this file. Let's create new composition. So basically, a new project was created. Now we'll drag and drop our YouTube and then we'll open the YouTube and you're able to use it like this. By the way, whatever changes you do to this template, which was imported, the original file stays the same. It's whatever changes you do here, for example. Let's delete it like this and close this project. We're now going to Okay, let's say this project. YouTube. Okay, we closed. But if we go to YouTube, original one, everything is the same because we're not actually changing the original file, we are just influencing the file that was inputted into after effects. Okay, so I understand it wasn't super easy to go through the last four videos. But now we know how to design UI designs with screenshot and Photoshop, with screenshot and Illustrator, with Figma and Illustrator and with PDF and Illustrator. You have 44 sorry, cannot count. You have four different ways to create UI designs. Whichever works best for you, use that with your workflow. If you have any questions, let me know better than that. I'll see you in the next video. 10. Project Setup & File Structure: Welcome. In this and over the next couple of videos, we can talk about the core tools for Apple UI animations. In this video, specifically, we can talk about the project setup and file organization. Let's open after effect, create a new project in top left corner. First of all, let's create composition. We can either click here at the bottom, or we can click here to create a composition. Or if we have something already here, we can just drag and drop it from the project onto our timeline here and it's going to create a composition. Now, I do recommend creating compositions yourselves in advance by either clicking here, clicking here and customizing the settings. I do recommend working with 1080 by 1920 or 1920 by 1080, depending if you want to create vertical or horizontal videos, we're going to create both. And I recommend 30 frames a second. There are basically three main frame rates. There's 24, 30, and 60. Sometimes you can see online, for instance, on YouTube, like 50 frames a second, but it's a little bit weird. Most movies use 24 frames a second, for example, transformers, it's 24 frames a second. If you use 60 frames per second, it is very smooth, but it doesn't feel natural. Most natural and of course, by saying this, I'm sharing my opinion, but in my opinion, 30 frames a second is the very best. So I recommend 30 frames a second, 1920 by 1080 or 1080 by 1920. At the bottom, you can set a duration of your composition. We can set, for example, 10 seconds and press on Okay. By the way, you can also give it a name. Composition one works perfectly fine for us. Secondly, I do recommend customizing your workspaces. So for example, this is a horizontal workspace, but as you can see, because we are working with vertical video, it's not the most convenient. The most convenient would be a vertical workspace. In order to do this, you need to go into the default workspace, then go ahead and drag this thing at the top, drag it to the right, and do it like so. Then we need to move this around here. I mean, you will see actually the audio we don't really need here, a line, we definitely need it, preview, don't really need it. Properties, we do need properties. So let's put it here. We can also put it to the right. Okay, and there you go. There you have the vertical, then just go ahead, right click Save this new workspace, give it a name, and it's going to be located here or at the top here. You can reset to save layout and it's going to go back to default. In terms of file organization, I do recommend creating folders. As you might know or might not know, you can create folders. You can create folders by clicking on them, or you can create folders by dragging something onto the folder and it's going to create folder. So, for example, let's say we had comp one, then let's duplicate a couple of times. Let's select all three, dragon drop it here, give it a name. Comp one, two, three. And by clicking here, you'll be able to open it. It keeps things more organized. It's easier to access, especially when we're working with UI designs. And there are hundreds, if not even more layers sometimes, and I just want to make sure you know where things are located. Otherwise, it's going to be a huge headache. You don't want that. Do that. Create composition, and you'll be ready to go. If you have any questions, let me know. Better than that, I'll see you in the next video. 11. Shape Layers & Essential Animation Tools: Welcome. In this video, we're going to talk about shape tools and essential animation tools. Let's press Command and to create a new composition. And by the way, the settings that we created in the previous video are always going to be default for new compositions unless you change the setting. So if we change it to 1080 by 1080 and press okay, next time we're going to create new composition, it's going to be 10801080. There's a number of things that are important when creating APO UI animations. First of all, we need to create shapes, and we can press on Q to select the shape tool. We can also press Q, and we're going to select a shape with rounded rectangles. Sorry, a rounded rectangle tool. Then we're going to select Ellipso circle, then this polygon and a SAR tool. Let's create a rounded rectangle tool. And by pressing shift, I'm going to make sure it is a perfect square. Let's put it in the middle. By the way, we can also change the size of the composition. In the middle of editing, it's not a problem. So another organizational tool we'll use is naming. So, for example, for this one, we will read it red square. Okay. I'm also going to press Command and double click on this pan behind tool, it's going to center the ancha point. The reason we want to center the ancho point is because if we create animations and let's say path animations, it's going to be based on the anchor point. And therefore, you want to make sure it's in the very middle, not somewhere on one of the sides, which is going to completely destroy the animation. Now, let's create another rectangle. Make sure to select this one. I can either click here, but if have a ton of layers. Here you can just press Shift Command A or Shift Control A. And let's create another rectangle, put it in the middle as well, center the anchor point. And for this one, we are going to change its color. Let's change it to Let's change it to white. So this is going to be a small white square. You can rename by pressing Enter, and then you'll be able to rename. You can also change the colors of each layer. So for example, for the red on, we can actually select red, but for the white one there's no white, we can either select like a pink, yellow, peach, whatever is the closest one. You can also edit the labels and set whatever color you want. For example, instead of this dark green which I never use, we can actually set white, and we can call it white. And now we'll be able to set white like this. Perfect. Because in the future, we'll be working with transforming the shapes. We need to make sure we know how to connect the shapes so that we can transform them. So, for example, if I increase the scale, we only increase the scale of one of them. By the way, we need to enter the co point for this one. Okay, so let's say we increase the scale, but the small one doesn't scale. Hmm. Well, in order to scale the small one, we need to parent it, and we do it by parenting the small one to this one, just whipping it over here. If you don't see the whip, icon for some reason, press on Control S or Alt S on Windows, and you'll be able to switch between the tools here. So now if I increase the scale, both of them will scale exactly what we want. However, and this is big, however, let's say we want to change the rectangle. Let's say we want to change its size. So for example, like that or like that, right, we change its position, for example, here, or change the roundness. Is there even a way to do this so that the white one changes the same as the right? Yes, absolutely. The way we do this is we open the rectangle, the small white one. We have the size, the position, the roughness, exactly the same as we have for the rectangle. And now we need to whip the size of the small rectangle to the size of the big rectangle. You'll see it just became one size. And now will be able to customize it. So if I set the opacity of this one to 50% by going to the property, for example, 50, you will see that we have the red one behind and they're doing it exactly the same. We know that it works because these values are red. So 671, six, 71, and we have exactly the same here. And if we change it, it also changes for the other one. These values are red, it means that they are connected. Good. We have the same four positions. So if we change the position, changes as well. And now for the roundness as well, let's connect the roundness. Now if we change the roundness of one of them, the other one changes as well. Now, we can go back and connect just the roundness for instance. So let's connect the roundness. And by increasing the roundness of the big one, we also changed the rounds of the small one. Interesting, right? Okay, in terms of the animation, you have a number of animations. You have your regular transform animations. You have your animations here. Like, everything that has this timer icon, everything can be animated. And there's really good extension, which is animation composer, which is absolutely free. And it has a ton of animations as well. So, for example, it says transitions, but these are technically like animations as well. So, for example, we have a red square. We can take a look at any of these. We can also increase the size if we want. And let's say we click here, animation in, and this is how it works. Let's say our ancho point was somewhere on the side here and we do the animation in, and you can see that it's going from the ankle point. That's why it's important to center the enc point so that when it's in actually it's symmetrical from the middle, things are good. We can do the animation out. We can do both. And this can save a lot of time for us because instead of animating this by hand, we can actually go ahead and do it. For example, let's duplicate. And let's remove from red square two. Let's change the position of both. Okay, so we have one growing and then decreasing in size. Okay, so we need to do it with scale. Scale at one, we put it to zero here, put it to let's see how big it is. Anyway, let's increase in size to about here, 120, probably. So instead of doing this animation, and by the way, it's probably they pressed F nine as well a little bit. We are off by one frame, but you get the idea. Instead of doing this manually every single time, right, we can just go ahead and press this button here in, and it's good to go. Saves an incredible amount of time. In order to download the animation composer, just go to Google Animation composer. There you go. Go ahead and try for free. There's no need to pay anything. You just try it for free forever. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, play around with this, and I will see you in the next video. 12. Graph Editor, Easy Ease & Easing Curves: Welcome. In this video, let's explore the graph editor easing in, easing out, and let's jump in. Okay, so we have our square in the middle. Let's create a keyframe. Let's press P for position, set a keyframe, move it further, and then set another keyframe. And we have a very simple animation of the square going up. Now, if you select both of these, we can press on FN F nine, and we're going to easy easy out. So it starts slower and it ends slower. Let me come to the graph editor by pressing this button here, or you can create a shroc for yourself, and the shro for myself is Control G. And you will see that we have two keyframes here. If I press FN F nine or just F nine, instead of it being rigid at 80 degree angles, it's going to be smooth. So before and after. And when these keyframes turn into this different shape, means that you are using easing in, easing out. You can also press on command and on keyframe, command and on keyframe and going to go back to just linear motion. But we don't want linear. We want smooth animations. Okay, so let's come to Graph Editor. With these handles, you are able to control how smooth the animation is. So it starts slow, it goes very fast, and then it becomes slow again. So let's see. You can see it's a different type of animations compared to this one. Let's compare once again. This one is a more extreme version of this easing in and easing out. By the way, you want to make sure that you're editing the speed graph, not in the value graph in order to do this. If we come to value graph, it's a little bit more advanced. Usually, 99% of the time I use the speed graph. If you come to the value graph, it looks something like this. And the reason it looks like this is because it's a little bit more advanced. We have two movements. We have the vertical movement and horizontal movement. And you see if we don't have any movement right to left. That's why the red one, which is the position X, it doesn't change at all. But the position Y, it does change because it's moving up and down. And one thing I can do is I can right click on position and separate dimensions. Therefore, I'll be able to customize this one. So if I'm going to impress F nine, it's going to become a bit smoother. I can drag these handles even more. This one just allows more customization. They basically a very similar thing to what we did with Let's Back. I went too far back. Anyway, let's put the position here, a position here, a little bit lower. Okay, so it goes like this. FNF nine, now it just goes in the opposite direction. We can actually move it from here as well so that the animation goes 0-1, let's say, 115, so that the animation is a little bit longer. Now, one thing you can also do is you can go ahead and double click on the keyframe, you'll be able to customize it precisely. You will see that each key frame has incoming and outcoming velocity, and outcoming outcoming is for this one because it's out, and this one is in. So if I double click on this one, we will have basically, we have to ignore this part and only look at incoming velocity for this keyframe. For this keyframe, we need to take a look only at outcoming and have to ignore this one. But, for example, if we had a third Something like that. If I click on this keyframe, now we do have to pay attention to both. So it depends if the key frame has incoming velocity and outcoming velocity. In simple words, it means if there's animation on both sides of the keyframe or just on one side of the keyframe. Basically, you're able to customize the smoothness. For example, I can put like 65 here. I can put double click and I can put 65 here as well. And you will see that We have different sort of animations. We can actually make it very similar by dragging it, like so. Now, if you do have a bit of a budget, there's one extension called flow. It is this extension here. Let me show you how to install it. So it costs $35 from AE Script to select our shape, double click on whatever animation we want, and it's going to created. Then if you want, you can go ahead and customize it. But if you want, we can go ahead and click on this one. So instead of even clicking a buttons, you can just double click on one of these and it'll be good to go. So this is how you create smooth movements. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 13. Null Objects and Camera Setup: Welcome. In this video, we're going to talk about null objects and camera setups. Actually, we don't necessarily have to use cameras, but with cameras, you have a bit more freedom, creative freedom sometimes, and I like to use it. I also like to use nos to animate the cameras because with nos, we're able to do something we're not able to do with cameras alone. I'm going to show you that in a second. So, for example, let's create a background by pressing Command Y. We are going to create a background. Let's apply gradient ramp. Let's create a big shape here at the bottom, center the anchor point, and let's create another shape like, so center the anchor point and put it in the middle. And let's like this one, put it in the middle as well. Okay, so we have a small crack tango, big crack tango and white solid gradient. We have one and we have two. And let's create a camera, B pressing Shift option command C or shift Alt Control C on Windows. Let's create a K. And it says that the cameras only affect three D layers. That's true. And now we're going to create a null, bupressing shift option command Y, or shift Alt control Y. And we're going to connect our camera to the null. We're going to press on Control S to reveal other parts. Sometimes these buttons appear randomly and disappear randomly. I don't know if there's a pattern of when these appear and disappear, so just press d or Control S to switch between these two. Now, we're going to make our null three D. We're going to make both rectangles three D as well. And actually let's go to horizontal. By clicking here, I'm going to press on New view. I'm going to search for New view, so view New view. I'm going to press on this or this button here to make it full screen. And I'm going to switch between the cameras. I'm going to actually switch to the top view, and now we are able to see things. So we have our background, which is not affected by the camera. We have our one and two, which are affected by the camera. We have the camera and the null. So we can make the camera and the null one color. Let's make it orange, and let's make these two. Let's make them white, both, actually. Now, what we're trying to do is we're trying to create a parallax effect. We need to change the position of the big rectangle and the small rectangle. So I'm going to change the position of the small rectangle and I'm going to put it back. And the position of a big rectangle, I'm going to put it a little bit to the front so that there is more space. You can see this is the small one. This is the big one. There's a bit of space between them. And therefore, when, for example, we change the position of the null, you can see that they change differently inside because if they were in the same position and we were to move up and down, you know, they would stay in the same position. But because they are located in different positions, let's do it again. We are able to you know, we have this interesting parallax effect, just like in real life, because when you drive in a car, for example, things that are further in the distance will change its position less than things that are close to you. Okay, so this is a good example. The clouds on the background change a little bit less than the foreground. The foreground is rushing very fast, but then the background is not changing as fast. So this is the effect that we were trying to achieve here. Let's change the position. Camera. The reason we connected the camera to the null is because if we want to have very smooth movements, we need to control it with nulls, for example. If I change the position of the camera and I time it, for example, we come from here to here, press F nine, and we do have the smooth movement. And let's say we wanted to move, let's say, so you can see, because if we take a look at this graph, we have this part here, which is like it's going down to zero and then has to go and start again. This is not what we're looking to do. Let's cancel all of that. What we can do instead is time the position of the null. So it's going to go further. Okay, great. Fan of nine. It is going further. At the same time, we can create another null, so we're going to duplicate this one and comparing this one to null number two P and We're going to delete the position key frames for this one, and we're going to click on position and click on position here as well. And a fan F nine, once again, to smooth it out. Now, the secret to smooth movement is to start the next movement before the first movement is finished. So as you can see exactly what we have here, we have our first null still in the process, and we have our second movement already starting. And this is how you can create this super smooth movement. So let's take a look. Okay, let's open the flow, and let's do it like that. Maybe not this hard like this. Okay, this is already super good. Okay, great. So very, very smooth movement. And this is something we were not able to achieve with the camera alone. And this is exactly the reason why we're doing it with null so that there's so that the movement is a lot a lot smoother. Because once again with cameras, if we animate anything, we have to wait until that keyframe is finished, and then we have to go into the next one. Yes, technically, we can do it with easing in, easing out. It's not always that easy. It takes quite a bit of back and forth, and it's just it takes so much time. And for a fraction of the effort, this is the way you can do this. So Nos, cameras, parallax. If you have any questions, let me know. But than that. I'll see you in the next video. 14. Masks, Alpha Mattes: Welcome. In this video, we'll explore masks, mats, alpha mats, uma mats, things like that. Might sound scary, not scary at all. Let's jump in. First of all, let's create a white background, and let's create a purple background, so maybe not purple but pink. In not to create any kind of masks, we have to use a shape tool. In this case, I'm going to press on Q or I'm going to press just here, hold, and select any kind of shape. Let's start with the rectangle tool. By selecting our solid background, I'm going to just draw shape and you can see that it's creating a mask. If we have a layer selected and then on top of that we're drawing a mask, we're going to draw a mask. However, if I'm just drawing a shape, without anything selected here, it's going to draw a shape. Select draw shape, it's going to create a mask. Dis select anything, create the shapes going to create the shape. If we select a rounded rectangle tool, you will see that we will have our angles rounded. In order to control the roundness of the edges, you have to use a mouse. So you can scroll up and down, and you can see it's changing the roundness. By the way, we were doing the shape layer. So let's disable, select it, and we're doing exactly the same thing here. We're not able to customize the roundness of the mask later on. However, we can customize the roundness of the shape. So if I go into rectangle path, I can customize the roundness. But if we create a shape, we cannot customize the roundness later. The way we can do it is we you know, we can create shape. We have to select a mask. We have to select our points, and then we have to customize them like that, but there is no sort of way to just do it with the slider so that it affects all the points. If we do it with a circle straightforward, to make sure the circle is precisely the same on all sides, just press and shift. It's going to make it very round. For this polygon, as well, as you can see, it's a triangle right now, and in order to change the number of angles it has, once again, we can use the scroller on the mouse and create more scrolls or less scrolls. And the same thing we have to do with this Tortol. Now, this is a mask. What about track Mat? Track Mat works similar to mask, but it has more options to work with and more customizations. So, for example, let's say we create a rounded rectangle. It's going to be black. And then we're going to track mat our blue solid to the shape. I'm just going to whip it to this shape. Mm. Interesting. So it automatically disables the rectangle and we can enable it. But what it does is it only shows whatever you track mat within the shape that you track mat it to. So, for example, we track matted this blue or purple to our rectangle and it's just showing it within the rectangle. What we can do is we can invert the mat by pressing and it's going to do exactly the opposite. It's only going to show everything that's outside of the square. Right now, we actually have a hole in the middle. And if we were to, let's add some text. Let's say we had our text below this layer, actually, let's make the text a lot bigger, increase the size of it, like so. And if I press on P, it change the position of the text, as you can see, we have a hole in the middle. Now, there's also a way to do alpha mat. Alpha Mt is even more interesting. For this, we need to create a solid. Let's apply a gradient. Gradient tramp. Now let's create a shape once again, put it in the middle. And now let's track mat our shape to the gradient. And now we have to press here. Instead of being just a normal mat, it's going to be alpha matte. Now, this is interesting. Basically, what's happening is whatever is black on the gradient, it's going to be transparent on our track mat, and whatever is white is going to be not transparent. So let me give you a better example if we move start the starting point of the gradient. So let's do it like this. And let's do it like this. Okay. Now I'm going to disable it, and you will see that the dark areas of the track mat became transparent. So this part is actually transparent. If I put some text behind, let me move the text lower. Actually, let's put it like so you can see that this part is transparent, but this part is not transparent. And this is the alpha mat. We can actually combine the two. So let's say we animate the background, and we put the final position. Let's put it here, and then we'll put this position here, so it will go like this, and it will reveal our square in this way. We can also F nine it to make it is in, is out. We can also track mat the text the same way, right? So we can track mat the text to this guy as well, and we can do the alpha mat and going to do exactly the same. If you have any questions, let me know, by and that. I'll see you in the next video. 15. Brainstorming Viral UI Concepts with ChatGPT: Welcome. In this video, we're going to brainstorm viral UI ideas with HAGPT, specifically video ideas because our goal is to create two videos, one vertical video, one horizontal video. And the vertical video that we're going to create is going to be for social media, the horizontal video is going to be actually for the introduction of the scores. And I'll give you a couple of tips that help me create the ideas. On top of that, boost my inspiration. First of all, I always like to come up with ideas on a piece of paper. I either have this big piece of paper or I have smaller ones, and I absolutely love writing with a pencil. It's so great. It's something that we forgot how to do. We oftentimes use our computers. And for me, in order to feel the inspiration and fill the ideas, to actually, create the ideas and put those ideas on a piece of paper, this is the best. I like to do a combination of my creativity with HGPT. HGPT knows everything that has ever existed, but to be honest, it's not creative. This is the biggest problem with AI and why AI will not replace people because at least in the nearest future, because AI is not creative. Everything that AI does is it's trained on models that are just examples given by people. So AI just knows a lot of stuff, and that's how it's able to provide the answers and provide the sort of creativity, but it's actually not creative. Although it's very good at lot of other stuff, but creativity, there is just none. There's zero creativity with AI. So, I am going to open CHADPT and let's come up with ideas. So let's start brainstorming. First of all, we need to come up with two ideas, two ideas. One, vertical video, second Sonto video. Okay, for the vertical video, since we're talking about Apple, I think it would be actually, I just had an idea as I started writing something I did in one of my other courses is I did a video about Misty Beast about Jimmy Donaldson. And I think since we're doing Apple, I think we can create an apple animation talking about Apple. Let's put this as an idea, video about Apple UI animation about Apple. Anyway, it might look messy. It doesn't matter. The goal is to get the results. That's what's most important. Okay, for the horizontal video, it needs to be a so let's put something here, intro to the course. Okay, so we have two ideas, and I think we should explore and actually talk to Cha GPT about this and then get his ideas because he knows a ton of stuff, and I think he'll be able to help me with this. Now, in order to get the best results with ha GPT, you should talk to him and name him whatever expert he is. In this video, he's going to be a professional ideation and script writer or ideation idealist. Who knows? Anyway. We'll talk to him. You are a professional script writer who gets paid $100,000 to write the best script on the planet. The script is for one script is going to be for a vertical video, and one script is going to be for horizontal video. So a total of two videos and total of two scripts. I need you to help me with the vertical video idea and the script. And then for the horizontal video, you need to help me with the script and not the idea. I mean, maybe a little bit of idea, but mostly the script. Okay, let me walk you through. The vertical video, I'm creating a course about Apple UI style animations. And in order to show people how it's done, I'm thinking about to create an vertical video animation in Apple UI style about Apple. So something we did with you in the past is we create the video about Mr. Busin how much he makes per second. I'm thinking something along the same lines, something similar, but something about Apple. So that can be how much Apple makes per second or how much Tim Cooks makes per second or something about Apple because it's Apple related. I think it would be interesting. Secondly, for the horizontal video, we need to create an intro to the course. It's the first thing that students see when they open the first video. Is it has to be a shocker, like, something that will catch them, something that will want them to complete the course, something that's going to be super valuable for them. I mean, this AppLUI style animation is super valuable. That's why they'll be taking this course. You already know about the course, so go ahead and actually go ahead and answer. Vertical VAD idea and script purpose. Actually, we did a pretty fast job to come up with the video idea. So if you have any questions, let me know. But than that, I'll see you in next video, where we're going to write a script. 16. Scriptwriting for Visual UI Storytelling: Welcome. In this video, let's write a script for the two ideas that we've just created. Okay, I have an idea. First of all, let's talk about the vertical video, and I think we should do something along the lines of how much does team cook or somebody who gets paid the most at Apple? How much does that person make per second? And we do a very similar setup to what we did with the Mr. Beast video. Basically, just go ahead and copy paste the script because it worked out pretty well. Yeah, so go ahead and do that now and then we'll discuss about the horizontal video a little bit later. Okay, not sure what happened, but let's use a very similar script to to the last script that we used with Mr. Beast. So that would be how much does Mr. Beast make per second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Beast Industries made $473 million. That's like month, week, hour day, second, minute, and so on. And so, use that script. Don't try to change it a lot. Yeah, let's go ahead and see what it does. Okay, I quite like everything, but maybe not. Let's just go ahead and copy it. So let's do notes. Going to create a new note. And so, actually, the text we had earlier is, let's break it down. Okay, so the stats about Tim Cook, is that real stats from, like, where these stats coming from? Find me an article that supports these details. I also want to make sure that everything is correct. Okay, are there any stats about 20:24 or maybe 2025. Okay. I'm a little bit confused. In the script above, you gave me an information that if he earned 63 million per year, then that's $6 every second. And now you are saying that $74 million is 2.3 $7 per second. How that's just impossible. And now you are saying that Okay. So TGPT made a mistake. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Legs break down in 20 2040 I want to get rid of the CDA. Don't think we're going to have a CTA. We're just trying to make a great video. Okay, this is the script. Get rid of the timings, get rid of the kind of your comments, whatever. And make sure to use the 2024 data about Tim Cook and make sure to double calculate everything because before this message, you said that in 2023, he made $6 per second. Now you're saying he makes $2 per second. Make sure the information is relevant and up to date. Oh, no way. Mr. Beast made more than Tim Cook. I mean, Tim Cook has a salary. Mr. Beast has his whole industry. Like, Mr. Beast himself didn't actually make that much. It was his companies that made that much, but, like, sometimes you can confuse Mr. Beast with his companies, anyway, can you let me know, why are you changing the script? I sent you the script, like, Where's the words? Let's break it down? I'm struggling to understand. Why is it changing this much? Okay, great, great, great, great. This is exactly what we needed. Copy, Paste. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. 24 Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's. Okay, great. Now, let's create a CTA where share it with a friend and give a reason to share it with the friend. Give me, like, ten different reasons so that I can choose from. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. This is a good one. Actually. Alright, I think it would be so funny to say that's why iPhones cost this much. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. This is a really good one, really good one. I absolutely love this one. Okay, so we have one script. This is great. Sometimes I might write a script on a piece of paper, but because I might change things in the future, I like to keep it on screen there, just a little bit easier this way. Now, for the horizontal video, let's work on the horizontal video now. Okay, great. So we're finished with this. Now, let's work on the horizontal video and specifically on the script. I'm thinking something along the lines of actually, let me check the script first that you've sent to give you some feedback. You're about to unlock the exact style used by Apple. I like that. Billion dollar startup sounds weird because startups. Apple is one. Why startups? Then viral creators, yes, we can keep that. This isn't just motion design. Yes, I like that. Whether you're freelance edit or content creator, the style of make your projects look like they came out of Cupertino. Oh, love this. Okay, we need to shorten the video. I told you what I liked, based on what I like, create a new script that's half the size of what you've written. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. It's what makes Brand field premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're freelance editor or content creator, don't worry, even if after effects fall over, overwhelming before, you'll learn everything step by step. Let's get. I think this is great. This is going to be our script. And let's do it like this. Why do you like this? Let me tell you a bit of my expertise. So it says what people are going to get, and this is something that people want. I'm just trying to think as a viewer. This isn't just motion design. True. This is motion design. Most people are tired of just motion design. We What we're trying to do is to is to make it feel premium and impossible to scroll past. Exactly. We're talking directly to people who want to take this course. So, for example, freelancers, editors, content creators. And, of course, I can give a lot more explanations to what kind of people are trying to learn this style. However, it's also going to take forever because a lot of people are trying to learn. Mostly it's freelancers, editors and content creators who want this. This line just sounds unique and interesting. And this is talking about struggles and the reasons why people might not want to take this course. And once again, this is kind of a quick creation of the script. To be honest, you never know what kind of script will work until you actually try. The best way to try is to actually go ahead and do it, see what kind of results you get. And if you don't get good results, change it and experiment and AB test AB testing is, you know, you create something, you test it with something else. Whichever performs best wins, let's say this one wins, it goes up. Then higher, you compare it with a new thing. You see which one works best. Still this one, keep this one. But then this one works better. Keep this one. And so you just go up and up and up and up, and that's how you create great results. Well, we created two scripts, which is great. This was our goal. If you have any questions, let me know. But ahead than that. I'll see you in the next video. 17. Planning + Voiceover: Welcome. In this video, we are going to create a voiceover and plan our videos. When I'm creating my own videos or videos for other people, I don't try to plan as much in advance because if I plan a lot in advance, then I don't have much creativity in the process. First of all, secondly, it's kind of easier for me to create in the process rather than in advance because whenever I start working and gets into this interesting flow, it just helps me to get things done easier. Now, I will say that sometimes I do run out of ideas, sometimes I don't have ideas or I want new ideas. But I don't have new ideas. In that case, I'm going to use ha GPT or potentially get some creativity going. Oftentimes, I also just take a pause, do something. While I do something else, I think about this and then ideas just start popping up in my head. That's my process. That's how it works. If it doesn't work for you this way, I think it's the best for you to create your own kind of creative workflow around this. The best way to create your own workflow is to just experiment and try. You don't know what will work, you don't know what will not work. So the best thing for you to try and just literally try to think, what on Earth can help you achieve whatever you want to achieve. If you want to be more creative, what can help you get more creative? Probably new ideas, how to get new ideas and, you know, kind of brainstorm it this way. I like to think of brainstorming as association. So I'm just trying to associate one thing with the other. And kind of creative ideas for me is also about association. So if you ever played the game with associations like, you know, table, wood, forest, animals, zoo, water, ocean, sunset, space, you know, universe, particles, you know, things like that. So it's kind of interesting. If you've never played it, try to play it in your head. I think it's really useful. And then this is kind of a part of my workflow is to just do something else, do these little associations in my head, and then I'm able to come up with ideas. This is how I come up with ideas and can sort of plan things in advance. And that's why I don't necessarily like to plan things in advance. The way I like to plant is I like to have, like, a general overview of what I'm going to do. And Alred know what I'm going to do. What we're going to do is we're going to have these different templates. So, for example, one is going to be like finder view. The other one is going to be Safari. The other one is going to be iPhone and like that. So we're just going to change different applications and then do animations in different applications. And this is kind of my general plan overview. And then as we go and actually start editing the videos, I'm going to get to more details. Now, we also need to create the voiceovers. The way I create voiceovers is I use voice memos on a Mac. I have microphone connected that I'm recording with, and I'm just going to read the script. The way I like to prepare my face muscles, and it's best to prepare your face muscles because if you don't prepare your face muscles, you might pick some of this and it's not very good. I'll give you a couple of tips. I learned this from a person called Vin. That Vin who is like a professional speaker, you can Google him. Basically, he gives a couple of practices. First of all, make your face small, make your face big. So small and big. Small. And then I go like that for like 30 seconds. Then it's imagine that you are eating a huge gum and it goes up like this. So go like that for 30 seconds. I try to move my jaw, like that. Then I'm trying to read this script as if I'm exaggerating, like every single word, so for example, horizontal video. You are about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. This way, you get your pronunciation better, your words sound better. And then the last one, if you just woke up in the morning, you have this sort of, like, Batman voice. If you want to get rid of that and get this sort of ups and downs in your voice, then it's best to do like this. That's it, so that's my five step process to preparing my face muscles and jaw muscles to record the videos. After I've done that. Which takes about 3 minutes. I'm able to record videos. This is actually what I do before recording these videos for you. So every single time I do this. Now, let's create two videos. I'm going to read a script. I don't see very well. That's why I'm going to wear glasses. Mm hm. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes you work like it came straight from. This Oh, this style makes you work, look like this style makes you work, look like it came straight This style, makes you work, look like this style, this style, this style, this style, this style, makes you work, look like it came straight out of Cupertino. This style makes you straight out of this style, this style, this style. And don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, and don't worry. You'll learn everything step by step. You'll learn everything. Okay, that's one recording done. Let's record the second video. Also, I also get some water, and I keep water right behind me, beside me. Otherwise, it's really hurtful on the throat. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Well, of course, the neighbors will beep. In 2024, Tim Cook made 74 million What are these neighbors doing? Yeah, that's what I have to deal with every time. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Okay, that's done. I'm not sure if I'll use this recording. I don't like the way my voice sounds right now, so I might re record this. But this is the process. This is what I have to go through. So we come up with an idea. We go through it with hATPT. We come up with scripts. We record an audio, and after this, all we have to do is to go in after effects and create these animations. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see in next video, we create the animations. Let's go. 18. Congratulations!: Congratulations. If you're watching this, it means you've made it halfway through the course content. I know we've covered a lot, so congratulations to you for making it to this point. And there's a lot more valuable content coming soon. But before we get to the next video, I want to simply ask you if you found value in this program up until this point, to take 60 seconds to leave you honest review. Of course, I will immensely appreciate this. A feedback will also help hundreds of future students in deciding the best program for them. So leave you feedback now. And of course, if there's anything I can help you with, please let me know in the Q and section below. You're doing great. Keep going. And without being said, let's get to the next video. 19. Setting Up Your UI Layout from Figma: Welcome. In this video, we are going to prepare our assets. So we've already created the scripts, we've recorded the scripts. Now before we start editing, we need to prepare everything we have to work on. Because if we don't do that, it's going to be a bit of a headache to do it in a process. So, let's copy this script, and let's come back to hA GPT. Hey, ha GPT. Okay, so for this script, this is the final script for the vertical video. We are going to use, as I told you before, we're going to create Apple animations, and we need to use different Apple UI designs. You need to give me a list of different possible ideas. So, for example, one can be a finder view. The other one can be iPhone view. It can be iPhone notifications. It can be iPhone apps. So instead of the notifications, it would be the text instead of the icons like under the icons, instead of the text, they would be our text. Give me more ideas where I can put text like this. Maybe we can do, like, a browser. Maybe we can do search results on Google, something like that. So give me different Apple UI related ideas for designs. And yeah, just give me a list of, like, 20 different ideas. Finder Window. Okay, I message hat bubble. Great. IPhone notifications banner, lock screen notifications, app icons with labels, control center titles. Mm, can be great. Okay, let's count how many we have. We can do this in advance and actually market with different colors. So I think because of the speed, because this is going to be very fast, we can market with one color, and it's going to be one scene. Let's do it like this. One, two, three, four, five, six. We have six different scenes. Just because of the timing and because I already kind of have an idea of what the video is going to look like, I broke it down like this. That's it. There's no specific formula I'm following. I'm just kind of having an idea in my head and trying to replicate in real life. We need six different scenes. Let's take a look at the other ones. Apple Music. Ooh. This is going to be one. So I'm thinking about notifications. This can be this part. So each notification is going to be like, we're going to have a notification animation, and then for each notification, we're going to have like month, week, day, hour minute. I think it's going to be super cool. These are not in a particular order. This is just what we need to find. And in order for me to understand what kind of how many we have, I just change the numbers. Okay, so now let's try to go to Figma, Finder Window. Let's search for Finder Window and see if we can find it. Okay, so let's zoom in, and we are going to need this part. Okay, so you want to make sure you double click until there's, like, a specific one that you chose. And as you can see, this is the one that I needed. I don't need the whole finder number one. We don't need the Header. So I was just clicking until I got exactly the one that I was looking for, and I'm going to right click copy as SVJ and let's go into Illustrator, Newfle web, large, and Command V or Control V to paste. Now, let's increase in size. By pressing Shift and option, I'm going to make it bigger like so. Now I'm going to open until we see all the objects. I'm going to go down and shift with shift, select all the objects. And I'm going to drag it all out. Now, you will see that some of these became a little bit visible, so I'm just going to delete it because we don't need it at the bottom. I think it will be really cool to kind of create text here, for example, like, one, two, three, four, five. We can have a whole sentence here. Let's click here. Release two layer sequence, select all the layers, 150 layers. That's a big number of layers and drag them out of the layer one. Okay, this is great. Command S to save it. And let's call it finder window. Okay. I'm going to add the text straight in after effects, and for now, I can just close it. I can actually close it by pressing Command W or Control W, and it's going to close the window. And now let's just double check that everything's okay. We're going to open it. Boom, perfect. This one is ready. I message chat. Okay, actually, this looks great. And this is the one. Okay, let's right click Copy it as well. Command N to create new one, webge Command V. Okay, so let's release two layers sequence. Let's select everything, drag it out, and now save this one. We are going to call it. I I message bubble. I'm going to save everything on desktop, and then later customize. This one is done. IPhone notifications. Quite like everything. Okay, so let's save this one as well. Release layer, drag it out. Control as save it on screen music. So we have the music. Okay, let's come back to notifications, and let's search for it. All I'm doing here is going through exactly the same process Figma Illustrator, save the file. Instead of boring you with exactly the same thing that you've already seen me do ten times, I sped this up. Overall, it took me roughly 45 minutes to complete and prepare all the assets. Okay, great. So now we have Find view. I message calendar notifications, other notifications, as well, music and notes. Great. In terms of UI designs, we have everything prepared. Now, we can put it into our there's going to be a vertical video. So UI designs. We can put everything here to make sure things are organized. So let's drop it there. Now, let's drop it into the vertical video and into UI designs. Okay, so now we can actually start working the video. We have our audio. We have our designs. Absolutely beautiful. We have everything prepared, and in next video, we are ready to start working. So if you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 20. Animating Hero Sections: Dynamic Intro + Text: Welcome. I am so excited about this video because we're finally getting to edit. We've done through all the preparation, boring work. Now, let's get and practice. Okay, so let me show you what I've done here. I didn't do it on camera because I want to take some time and I don't want you to bore with the boring stuff. So here's what I did. We had our six different designs, UI designs. And I just marked them with color exactly as we have descript so that I know, for example, for this part, we're going to use the finder. I also move them around to make it a little bit easier. Don't take a look at these numbers, so we can actually just Go ahead and delete it. Perfect. So we have this ready. Now, let's jump into after effect. Okay, we create new project. We will create new composition. I'm not sure how long this will be. Oh, actually, because we have guys, I completely forgot we have the audio recording. So we need to create the premiere project first to cut the audio and then we'll add the designs and after effects. For that, window open Premiere, create the sequence, cut it. You can definitely do it in after effects. It's just a little bit easier for me to do it in premiere because usually after effects is more for, like, motion graphics design, and premiere is more for putting everything together. New project. Let's call it vertical video. And I'm going to choose a location vertical video, okay, Shift command and to create a new folder, and let's call it PR. Like this, in order to open a Mojes it's control command space. Then create. Okay. And here, we're going to create a vertical video game. Create the project. Let's drag our audio here. Let's create a sequence. We can kind of drag and drop the audio here. But then if we take a look at the settings, like, we don't have control over the setting, so it's not something I want to do. I want to create a sequence. Select this 30 frames a second, 1920, 10800 Oops. Sorry, 1080 by 1920. The shortcut to open the settings, first of all, we can open all kind of shortcuts with keyboard shortcut. The shortcut is option Command K on Mac, and it's old Control K on PC. So we can open these, and then if I search for settings, and we can search for sequence settings, Command K. You can search you can put yourself the same shortcut if you want. It's the same shortcut that's used in after effects. Let's drag it here. I actually don't like the way this looks, so I create the shortcut for myself to customize the timeline. You can butch my other courses on how to do this. Okay, now we just need to cut everything. How much does steam Cook make every second? How much does Team Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made $74.6 million. That's 6.2 million dollar a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. And that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Perfect. Let's create another folder called it AE, which is after effects. And I'm going to set a tag as well. So I have this purple tag, which is Control three shortcut on MacBook to create this sort of purple so that I know that this color is only, like, project related. We can also do, like, downloads. That's also project related, and then it's just easier for me to organize. So we can do a dynamic link. However, if I right click replace with after effect composition, it doesn't work. In order for dynamic link to work, we need to have some sort of visual. You know, it doesn't matter. It can be the visual itself can be super short, can be like this long, right click, and now we can do it. However, instead of doing it right clicking, I have a shortcut. So replace with after effect composition. For me, the shortcut is option A, and I just press on. Take a look at this option A. There you go. And let's call it vertical video. Tim Cook. Okay. And we'll put it into after effects. We'll delete the graphic. And now we have the composition that's exactly the same as we created in premiere. So we have the width, the height, and 30 frame second. Everything is good, although the time is the time is okay because that's how long our audio. See this turned into red. We can press Command set if we want to do it and be able to put it after. I would say it would be better to export it from After Effects first because otherwise it's going to have to render it in real time in premiere. And instead of putting so much pressure on our computer, we can just export it from After Effects later. So I just press Command set. I can press Shift Command set to redo but I'm going to press command at pressing command a to save it and command Q to quit. Okay, I'm going to select all the audio press Shift Command C to precompose, and what will call audio. We have solids. Okay, so we don't need solids. We can delete it. Graphic, we can delete graphic. Delete. Audio. Okay. We can put it into audio, like so, and we can put audio here as well, because we don't need to customize the audio. We can only customize it. I mean, we can, but we don't necessarily need it. So how much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. And for this, we're going to use the finder window. Okay, so let's search for our UI designs, and let's find the finder window, composition, layer size, press noka and let it do its job. Sometimes it does take a little bit of time to load everything. Let's open it up. So what I'm thinking about is putting text one, two, three, four, five, here. So we can select this, find it, and then let's find a text tool. What kind of text do we have? How much? How much? As a pro, regular. Perfect. This is the Apple font. Remember, in order to stop editing the text, press on Command plus or Control plus and it's going to just go back to the selection tool. Okay. Let's zoom in. I think my font is a little bit too big. We need to decrease it. Let's make sure it's the same height, P and H, so maybe 22. Okay, now P, let's change its position, put it around here, and 146, we're going to disable it. Okay, now, by pressing Command D, I'm going to duplicate the text. We'll put it here, duplicate the text again, P to open position, put it there. Instead of how much does. And let's put it, so. By the way, let's disable, select V, and Does Tim Cook, disable it's far away. Actually, let's keep all the texts together. Like so annual report, this one. Okay. So here's what we have. How much does Tim Cook make per second? And now, I was thinking about putting Tim Cook here, like in this part, like an actual image of him. Hm. Let's search for PNG, we have something. This looks so similar to Steve Jobs. Okay, let's use this one. Save image. And let's actually let's not put it here yet. Let's find this layer. Okay, so we might need to disable a number of things here. Let's import Tim Cook image. I can open scale by pressing S, and I can open position by pressing P. And if I want them to be both open at the same time, I have to press shift in between those. Okay, so there are a couple of things we can do. We can either track mat him and we should give it a try. So this is the one. Can we track mat it? Yes. Like so perfect. S&P. Let's put him to 12. By the way, it should be visible as well. Perfect. Put him to the bottom. Like, so, isn't this great? I think it This is beautiful. Let's go to the audio. How much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. Let's break it down. Let's break it down. Okay, we can do it here as well. So let's search for duplicate this one. B move it here. Now, let's select these to copy them and paste them here. Doesn't matter, actually, we should probably paste it around here so that we can here. Now we need to animate the text. There are a couple of ways we can do this. We can either do it by using what Adobe has, and I'm going to show you how to do it. So, for example, how much, by the way, you probably seen me use this part here. This is a effects console by video C palt. So you can go ahead and download it, and then by pressing a shortcut, you'll be able to search for different effects. So just come to this website, go ahead and download it, install it. It's absolutely free, and then you'll be able to press a combination, search for effects. So, for example, for fade up fed up words. And you will see that we will now have the text animated here. How much does steam? Then if we press you, we have the keyframes. So that's one way we can do this, we can use a typewriter effect like a fade up, like something else, the text animations. However, one of my favorite ways to animate text is to use a text evoscript. It's a paid script that you have to pay for. It's $30. So if you don't have this option, the use what you have with after effects. If you do have an option to spend $30, then go ahead and use it. It's absolutely great. I'm going to show you what does. I'm going to press Shorca for myself once again to run script. If you don't have the shortcut, you can just script run scripts and you can see there this is the shortcut Command R, and I'm going to go to desktop Scripts TextEvScript. And we're going to have this pop up. Now, I'm able to, for example, up Opacity words apply. It's the process that I created for myself, and the tax is going to go up. It's going to increase with opacity because right now the opacits is at zero. I'm going to person U and Okay. How much does how much do? Can you speed it up a little bit? How much does how much does how much does tip? By pressing L double times on the audio, I'm going to open the waveforms to see things better. How much does To see where certain words start. So we can either move it like this, the text. We can also just press on a bracket. Like left bracket and it's going to basically do the same thing as move it in moving it here. We can also press Option bracket and it's going to cut it. It's the equivalent of pressing Shift Command D, making a cut, and deleting this part. So I'm going to pression left bracket to cut it. The tip. Option left bracket, Tim C. Left bracket, it's actually not per second. It's every second. Let's double check that we have text with the audio. How much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. Perfect. Now I'm going to run the script again. Actually, it's already here. So let's use up opacity words apply, and we can select all of these up opacity words apply. Does steam Cook make every second. Press. Okay, so these are supposed to start later. The steam cook make every second. So we'll use the same animation here. We'll use opacity words apply. You let's break it down. Let's break it down. We are going to have all text stop here, so once again shift command and then press and delete or we can press Option right bracket. It's just for me to see where it ends. It down. How much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. Let's leave it like this for now. Come to the project finder window. How much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. Great. Okay, so for this part, we have everything ready, and I'm going to cut this layer to here. So we have the first 326 ready. Now, the next thing we need to do is to come here Apple calendar event. Okay. Let's search for Apple calendar. I think we'll use iPhone calendar because that's what I liked. Composition, layer size, import, open. So let's try to create some text here. The font definitely needs to be smaller. Know how we can frankenstein this thing together. It's going to look a little bit ugly. Okay, maybe we should go for maybe we should go for 15. Let me copy this thing. Put it here and then put it here. This is going to be a bit ugly, but people will not notice these little things because on top of that, we're going to animate the camera. This part is actually like, it's good. Okay, so let's create a mask. Let's move it up, like so. Now, let's create a mask, so we just select this tool and it's create to mask, but then we will invert the mask. Lexual. Perfect. And now, what we can also do is we can select a linear wipe. We will set -90 so that it goes from left to right. So we will time the transition. And here it's going to be complete. You can also press FNF nine to make it smooth. Okay, Project, where was it? IPhone calendar. IPhone calendar in. Put it here. In 2024. T ImCook made $74.6 million. Let's open the audio, copy this one, go into IPhone Calendar, search for this, select, paste, go to the very beginning. In 2024, Tim Cook made 74.6 million dollar. Maybe we should do it linear instead. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. I'm going to disable the audio here because we have double audio. T four. Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million. So we've done the first two. I message Chad Bubble. Okay. I message Bubble. Trobin composition, layer size. What do you? That's $6.2 million a month. 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. And that's 2.3. And to copy this, I message and paste it in here. That's $6.2 million a month? Okay, let's put our text here. Okay? So here, the text needs to be a bit To fit the screen, I have to press Shift and line that's sideways. I don't know what it's called exactly, but it's this one here. This key, multiple command, this one, here, Shift and that one, and you shift back to this view. At this point, you probably got the idea. We just need to customize every single piece that will be customized, will be animated. And so I'm not going to speak. I'm just going to do it. You get the idea. If you have any questions, be sure it's live in below, but other than that, let me just go ahead and do it. No bore you with this. And then once we get into the fun stuff, I'll be back. Okay, here's the interesting part. Now that I have the text animated, I have the typewriter effect on all the text. What I want to do now is animate every single bubble pop up. For that, we can use a couple of different things, but I'm thinking about using a transformer effect, which then I'll be able to just go ahead and copy in all of them. Or oh, yeah. Actually, we can go ahead and try the animation composer, which we have in front of me. So we have both of these. We need to parent one to the other. So I printed the whip this at the end to the big one, and let's try to start to presets maybe this one. Okay? This is definitely a bit too much, maybe bounces zero. I quite like everything, okay? Now, we need to open this to see where the animation starts. I want to go to, for example, here, and paste. Let's take look. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. Okay, great. Now, in terms of all this other stuff, I'm not even sure. Potentially we could just go ahead and disable most of the stuff 'cause we're not using it. Mm hmm. Okay. This looks great. Make sure to save the projects. Okay, now let's put it in. So we have the I message bubble. That's 6.2 million dollar a month. Okay, we did this animation now. Apple music. Okay. Let's go. And we need to break down this part here because right now it's one big layer. We need it to be lots of small layers. So it's this one. Let's take all of this out. Like, so layer Okay, now we should be able, yes. Okay. Save this. Let's give it a try without closing Illustrator first. Yes. Okay, now we're able to customize every single bit, okay? So now we can close the illustrator. We should have an icon here. We don't have an icon. Mm. We should put Tim Cook there. We should. Isn't it? Beautiful. I think it is. Okay, now we need notes. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute, and that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour, every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Beautiful. Isn't it beautiful? Okay, now, let's do the final touches here. So everything is good. Aside from here, we need to add a picture here at the top. Add a background here and add a background here. Okay, let's quickly go through everything. Let's create a circle. Put it in the middle. And now let's put a picture. Oh, yeah, let's put another picture of Tim Cook here. And we will track match this image. Like, so Okay. What else do we need? We need background here, okay. Let's open this one. Okay, let's find a picture. IPhone screen. We just need to get the dimensions right. Let's try to align these things so that it fits perfectly. I think it does now. Now, we can create an outline ourselves. Let's create a rounded rectangle shape, diselect everything by present shift command. A, now let's create a big one and et's make sure it fits vertically and horizontally. I'm also going to open the transform to move it up and down. Okay, this is great. Change the roundness to make sure we fit. Put it to the very bottom. Now, we can make it whatever color we want. We can make it white so that we can see stuff. But instead of white, why don't we create? Let's do iPhone wall, paper. I'm going to press a shortcut Shift Option Command H or G, and this is the shortcut that allows us to fit a certain object to the size of the screen, either vertically or horizontally to the size of the composition. And from there, I can make it bigger, smaller, doing to make it a bit bigger. So let's put it to 35. Okay. And let's track mated to this guy. Mm hmm. Great. Now, let's duplicate this iPhone, make it visible. Let's only do the stroke, let's increase the stroke width. Like, so as let's make it. Let's make sure our anchor point is in the middle. And now let's make it a bit smaller, just a tiny bit, and let's make it black. This is great. The only thing we need to do is we need to change the position because it's not very straight. So let's connect to this one and P move this one a bit to the right. So now let's just copy this thing, put it here. Let's put it to the bottom, P, let's move it a little bit. To the left. Let's change the iPhone background to something else. I love it. Okay, now we need to add just a couple of things there notifications because let's double check. Notifications, yes. So we do have some sort of icon there. IPhone iPhone message. I can download. So let's drop it in, drop it in here. Okay, let's do it like this for now, and then we might change it a little bit later in the future. Let's see what we created. How much does Team Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. And that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Okay, I'm loving everything. We'll definitely have to create something in terms of the background a little bit later because we don't have backgrounds for any of these things, but other than that, I think it's looking super great, super expensive. Maybe we will create a rounded edge here because it doesn't look like an iPhone currently, but we can certainly do it. Like, it's not a problem. We created it here. Super easy. We'll see what we can do here as well. Other than that, I think I want to stop here, take a little break, get some fresh ideas into my head, come back with a fresh view and see what kind of results we can get here. We are doing a great, great job. Thank you for watching. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 21. Transitions & 3D & Depth with Null Chains: It's been about two, 3 hours since my last session. I'm continuing with this edit. There are a couple of things we can do. I'd like to walk you through some of the options that you have when it comes to this. Let's take a look at the calendar, for example, a composition doesn't have so many layers. I think it was this one. What we can do is we can create a camera and we can Zoom in with the camera. If we zoom in with the camera, we're going to lose quality. Why? Because everything is going to stay the same quality, basically. And we just zoom in and we zoom in here, you can see the quality is pretty bad. However, there's an interesting workaround around this, and it has to do with the SVG files that were created in Illustrator. For example, let's create a null by pressing Shift option command Y. Okay, it's going to stay at the bottom. We'll select everything aside from the null, and we are going to parent everything to the null. Like, so at the same time, we're also going to click on this button, which is Rustiz. And therefore, let's say we press on S, and now let's increase the size. I can see that the quality is actually becoming better than what it used to be. It used to be, you know, take a look at this part or take a look at this part. We increase it in size, and it's becoming better. So that's what happens when you rasterize. Okay, I'm going to go back to cancel everything. So a couple of things we can do. So yes, we can definitely work with the camera to create this Boca effect, basically the blur in the background, the foreground, which looks super expensive. Sure. And we can actually do that for the background. We can also use the same effects with the Cashion blur, anyway. At the same time, what we also did great is we have each of our sets, each of our scenes in a different composition. And because we already have the audio here, we can actually animate every single one of them on its own. Let's give it a try. I'm going to select everything, press A and A to close everything. So now we have everything closed, and I'm going to change the composition of this to 1080 by 1920. So we're going to make it vertical. And okay, let's start with this first one. Let's close everything else. And I'm going to select everything command to Oh, actually, it's here. So rasterize every single layer. Now I'm going to deselect everything. Shift Command A, select the first layer, and here we're going to create a null, shift option command Y. Now, we're going to press Command A to select everything, and by pressing Shift, I'm going to press on null to diselect it, and now we're going to parent everything to the null. So even if we drag one thing to the null, we still are parenting everything to the null. Okay, great. So now, we can control everything by increasing the null, beautiful. This is actually going to be the main nulls, use P and S. Actually, let's start from like this position here roughly, put two key frames, really increase the scale. And let's put it something like in the middle. We just increased this null, and because we want super smooth movement, I'm going to select this null and I'm going to create another null, and I'm going to connect this null, the main null to null number three, doesn't matter the names. And now, while we are zooming in, we will already start moving to the left, like so. And eventually, we should finish here. Let's F N F nine, everything. How much does steam cook make every second? Okay, this needs to stop here. Actually, I think what we can do is we can do it like this, so it will start very fast in the very beginning and slow down. How much does steam Cook make every second? And maybe we need to zoom in a little bit less. Then going to smooth this one out a lot. And while this one is still moving, we're going to start going down in this case, we can just duplicate this one, then parent it. By pressing P, we will delete these keyframes. And so we'll start from this position. And we will go down. Like so select it, double click. Let's break it down. I go. Let's break it down. Maybe we need a little bit less. What about this? So let's take a look at this one here. How much does steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. Let's create another null around here. So duplicate this one, P, connect this one to this one, delete the position keyframes and start. And then and let's say here, we'll do it on our own nine, zoom in, and we'll do it like this. Let's create a marker. Let's search for how to leave marker. Do you remember? Okay, Control eight. So let's put the marker here, Control eight. Okay, great. We have a marker now. And Let's break it down. Okay, beautiful. Second. Let's break it down. Maybe we should start this one a little bit sooner. Second. Let's break it down. Maybe it should go o to bit lower. Second. Let's break it down. Maybe even lower. We second. Let's break it down. Okay, let's see. How much does Steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. So for the first one, we have item Cook make every second. Let's break it down. In 22. Let's open this one. Let's make it 108 T by 1920. And we are going to do exactly the same thing as we did previously. Let me select the top layer, create a null, select everything, select the null, parent everything to the null. And whilst we have everything selected, we will click on Rasterize. It's already rasterized K Ps rename it to main null. Okay, so we did have our iPhone here. Let's select our iPhone, this one, this one, this one. Select our iPhone and bring it to the calendar iPhone and paste it in. Now, let's put everything in the middle. Because we had it parented. That's why this thing happened. Great. Now we can disect this background, and now we can select everything, diselect the null, and we can track mat everything to iPhone because that was our track mat. So just select everything. Let's scale it down just a bit. Like, so 99. Perfect, so that we don't cut the edges. Let's parent these two to the null as well so that null connects everything. So now that when we scale, we do have our iPhone like this. How does this one end goes to the right? Okay. So we can actually have it come. This is going to be the final keyframe, and we should should do it, like, so this one is going to go to the very left. This one is going to come like this. In 2020? A bit more room because there's literally no space. In 2024, Tim Cook made. Let's check what it looks like. Break it down. In 2024, Tim Cook made 74 point. Okay, let's take a look now. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's 6.2 million Great. Okay, now we need to create our iPhone thinking here as well. Let's take our iPhone, as well, copy, paste it in the I message bubble. Is select this one, put it in the middle, in the middle. And actually, we need to change the size of the composition 1080 by 1920. Our animation itself on the background is not perfectly in the middle because we didn't put it in the middle in Illustrator, something that's better to do, but we didn't do it, and it's not the end of the world. Let's create a null, select everything. We will deselect these. We'll parent it to the null. Okay, rasterized, turned on, and I was thinking about selecting the null and putting it in the middle. Okay, we can just do it with rulers then. So we have 1080 by 1920. You can see the numbers. 1080 divided by half is 540, so I find 540, this is going to be the very middle. This is going to be in the very middle right now. Perfect. Let's turn on these guys. Looks like our team Cook is not in the middle, but whatever. Okay, now we will select everything aside from the null and we will track mat to our iPhone. Then deselect everything and we can delete this iPhone as well. And to disable it, change the position of our null. Now we also need to find the picture of this, and we need to track mad it to the shape xl, let's search for where we have these things. I want to pass on P and change their position so that it's a little bit higher. Now, things are the way they should be. Let's close these because we already finished with them. So we finished with the first two. Now let's work on this one. Min duplicate, parent P and S. Actually, what we can do is we can take a look. Let's create another null here. Parent this one, P, select E position, and then we start going down rapidly FNF nine, open, too. So $60 million. Okay. And let's start this. I need a background because I cannot see what's happening. Let's enable this. Okay, so let's start from here. Let's do it, like so F nine. Okay, now we're doing exactly the same thing once again, just going to get rid of the background. Okay. Let's look at what we have so far. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's 6.2 million. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute, and that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour. Let's take a look at everything put together. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute, and that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Mmm, yeah, I think everything actually, everything is great. Aside from maybe a couple of zoomins like, for example, here, I think can be a little bit better when to get rid of the backgrounds and set a background. So let's try and do that. Okay, so for this background, we're going to delete it. Okay, we are definitely getting there. Okay, so for this background, let's search for. This looks great. Okay, why don't we go here into the fender project, download, drop it in, go to the very bottom, and drop it in here. Okay, so let's try a couple of things. Let's try this moving with the rest of the image. L significantly bigger, something like this. If you want it to be connected. Oh, no, we need to be even bigger. Okay, so let's take a look. How much does steam cook make every second? Let's break it down. Okay, the first one looks great. What do we have next? Next, we have I think for the next one, we should just go for a gradient. So Command Y to create a solid gradient ramp. Give me color code to use as a gradient for Apple animation. Actually, we shouldn't just put a gradient. We should probably put like a four color gradient. This is the one we need. Okay, let's actually, maybe we don't even need to put it here. I think we can use a similar background here, so we can just go ahead and copy it. Let me just close everything I'm starting to lose track of things. Control C, Control V. Actually, let's try to put this color on the background here. Let's animate the opacity. Like everything except for the transition here, I think we should do something about it. I don't like the way this one ends. Maybe we should change the position to be like this. Million dollars. Million dollars. That's six point million dollars. That's 6.2 million. It's $74.6 million. That's 6.2 milli. Maybe this one needs to start higher. Let's give it a try. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million a month. I think it's great. I might do a couple of other insignificant changes in the future. But overall, I think this video is turning out to be absolutely fantastic. So now let's export it. In the next video, we are going to work on the sound effects. Let's go to export at TornoQ give it a name, save it and render. Beautiful. Maybe we should also add a bit of motion blur to everything, or maybe not we'll see, because right now there's no motion blurr anywhere. So let's take a look at the final video. How much does Steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. This looks great. I think we should add motion blur, so select everything add motion blur. I mean, this will probably take a lot on the computer. We can give it a try and see what kind of results we get. Especially on transitions, it's going to be super useful because it's going to make it a lot smoother on transitions. How much does Steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down in 2024. Yeah, the transition is a lot smoother this way. Let's decide the next video which one we're going to use, a little cliphanger for you. Other than that, if you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video, so see in the next video. 22. Sound Design: UI Audio + Timing Sync: Welcome. Okay, we've done some incredible things so far. We've created the video, we've prepared the design. Like, we are so through this video, which is great. And now we need to take a look at the videos, and I organized it yesterday. So we have the Export one, which is without Motion blur, and this one is with Motion blurr. You can even see it in the preview. Let's take a look at the motion blur first, and then we'll take a look at the expert and one, we'll decide which one to use, and then we'll jup into editing the audio and the music. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Tim Cook made $74.6 million. That's $6.2 million a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute, and that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour, every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Okay, beautiful. Absolutely. Like, super expensive. Let's take a look at this one. How much does Team Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made 74.6. Yeah, like the one with Motion blurr Moore. And I would like to take a look here to make sure that we did have motion blur. Interesting. So this frame, it's like we have motion blur here, and then this frame it stops. And then it is like this for like two frames. Everything is good on this front. I think we might just cut this part out, this one frame. I believe it's just with keyframes to move the keyframe a little bit to the left. But instead of reanimating, exporting, which is going to take less like probably 15, 20 minutes. So instead of doing that, we can actually just cut that out. Let's just double check that everything else is good. Oh, I think the same issue here. Yeah. Interesting. Anyway, let's open it in Premiere. So for this, I'm going to create actually, we've already created our premiere project, so I'm just going to open it. In order to open anything on Mac, you can press on Command O on Windows probably similar, something like Control O, and it's going to open it. And then I'll show you interesting ways to get the very good audio for free, okay? So export too. Let's organize things. So let's create a folder by pressing Command and this button. So command and make sure to select the project folder. So command and that button, we create a bin. Or we can actually select for example, this one, press Shift B, and it's going to create a bin of this selection. So this is going to be called raw audio. This is going to be called sequences. This is okay, we'll just leave it here for now. Delete the audio and do it like so. How much does steam cook make let's see where things went. Yeah, we definitely need to re export because we have, like, one, two, three, four. We have three frames frozen. We can delete this. And now let's open the After Effects project. Let's go AE. Command O, open it. We'll reexport we'll just make sure to solve that issue there. So what I think that's the key frames when we are moving it in the very end must be this one here. So we still have the text, and Okay, let's take a look here now. Os. That's. That's 6.2. Okay, this one is good. I can scroll in between frames by pressing command, command and arrow keys. Otherwise, if you have anything selected, you're going to move it right and left. And why do we have it like this? So is it this one? No. Is it this one? Yes. Okay, what's wrong? What was wrong here? Why did we why did we do it? Okay, let's just double check every single frame in between. Export three, we're going to use the Export three, and now we're going to render. It's gonna take some time. This project is pretty heavy. In the meantime, while it's exporting, let me show you how to get professional quality audio for free. It's through a website called Pixabay. You can search for different stuff. You can search for images, videos, gifts, three D models, sound effects, and music. Now, they have a great library of sound effects. And if we search for UI, These are great UI sounds. Like, for this, there's no sound on IOS, but okay, for this one, there's also no sound. But for message animations, there's actually a sound. When you send a message and when you receive, I'm not sure when you send, but when you receive, there's definitely sound. Okay, so for this, we can just use a typewriter or like keyboard supersimple. This one super simple as well. Okay, so basically need to find the sounds for I message, and let's search for that. Notification. I'm creating a video about Apple UI Design, and I need to find sound effects and double check with you about the sound effects. Basically, it's iPhone receiving messages and sending the messages. Are there any sounds when you send and receive a message? First of all, secondly, where can I download them for free online? I message sounds. Okay. Let's take a look at this one. Perfect. This is just exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to download it from here. I just copy link. I come to this website. We need just the audio for this one, so we don't need it in good quality because good quality weighs, actually, 3.21 megabytes. It doesn't matter. So we have this download. This is good. Control as command as well, so it doesn't take our memory. Our export should be here. Yes, let's put it in this folder. Okay. Export number three, we can delay this one because we're not using it. Then drop this one in. And let's start working straightaway on iPhone sounds. So let's see which one we need. So we need this first one. No. This is Is going to be one. This is going to be another one. And let's see. So this is receive, and this is probably Sand. Sand receive. Okay, so this is going to be the first one. We'll mark it. Let's mark it to orange and this one will be this color. The way I can mark colors is I have to go into shortcuts option command K, Command one, so purple. Come on, two mango. So I search for mango, this is the color. You can actually search for Libel and you can put different shortcuts for yourself for different keys. Okay, so this is going to be one. Let's place it here. That's six colors. That's six That's six foot. That's six point. Going to disable my voice so that it doesn't compete. Now, let's do this one. Another this one. I'm able to copy these by pressing option. No, no, no. And this one as well. So a drag, press option. I put it roughly doesn't have to be perfect because people usually people don't even notice any of this stuff. So, oops we need to use orange, as well. And that's it. Okay, so let's take a look. No. No. L. L. This might be a little bit too loud, so we need to lower it down by pressing G minus ten. Let's listen with everything. Million dollars. That's million dollars. That's six point? Maybe not minus ten, but let's put it to minus five. Million dollars. That's six point? Yeah. This is great. Right away, I between all these transitions fast Zoomins we need to add swooshes. So I'm going to use premiere composer animation composer, the same one we used in after effect. And I'm going to search for swoosh. And I'm going to add it in. How much do? And probably need to cut it. Mute, the top one. Okay, so we have another transition here. Let's add another one. Okay, maybe let's use different one because this transition is a bit faster. We can probably lower these down a little bit lower so that we keep swishes on one level and these guys on the other level. I don't like the way this one is too rigid, so let's try to use this one here as well. A bit later. Mute these guys as well. It starts too soon. Okay, something like this. Let's search for another transition moment. It there. By the way, this transition is so seamless. The reason is because we have a very dark background, and this one is also dark. So that's why it looks so great. And let's use the very last one around here. Let's drop it in a bit earlier. Okay, let's take a look at transitions. Okay, great. By the way, here, I know that right away, I am going to use so we can disable these. And let's work on this track right now. So I'm going to press S and it's only going to enable this track, track number three. And we're going to add a typewriter effect here. By the way, let's keep this organized. So for this, we need Sex, and I'm going to search for SFX folder and drop it in. You can find the same Sex folder in the downloadable resources section, and you will have access to all of the sound. At the bottom, you will find a typewriter or potentially actually heavy an apple keyboard here, which might sound even more expensive than the typewriter. So let's find it. And for example, let's select this portion, and let's And to click this. So let's listen. Beautiful. For this, I'm actually not sure which sound we should use here. Maybe we'll have none. But let's come to the very beginning now. And let's try to think what sound should we use here? Maybe we should use some sort of UI sound as something we wanted to do. I like this sound. Let's download a bunch of them, and then we'll figure out. Mm actually. Let's download this sound as well. And then let's see what else. This is great. I'm looking for expensive sounds, and I'm looking for sort of, like, I don't know if there's a way to describe a sound like this, but for a tactile sound, something that feels super expensive and like an expensive feel when you touch something. So this is something I'm looking for. Actually, this one was beautiful as well. Yeah. Okay, so we've downloaded a couple of them. Let's see what we have. For each of these words popping up, I want to have a sound of some sort. So, let's actually, let's open this and let's try all of these. No, not here. I'm going to close this one and let's try all of it here. And let's listen. So let's use these first two for how W is it? For how long? Okay. We can barely hear this one. Let's make it louder. It's -20. Let's increase it by 15. Okay. No, it doesn't look sound good. Here's what we're going to do. We're going to use this sound for every single text because we want to keep the sounds consistent, as well. Otherwise, it's not going to sound expensive. Oh, here we should do it like this. And here we might be able to use all of these at the same time. Where does it start right here? Yeah, actually, I think it looks great, maybe just a bit later. Okay, now let's take a look at everything. Let's disable myself. Great. Okay, for this one, we're going to use a marker, and we can find it in fax folder. Let's search for marker. We have two different markers. One marker like this. The other one is longer. We're going to use a longer one because I know this animation is pretty long, so actually, we have to have it longer. Okay, we definitely need to make this one -20 because it's too loud. Add a transition here, but let's go to fax and do it centred cut so that it's invisible. Yeah, you can barely hear it, but it's good. Okay, here we also need to add a keyboard or Okay, and I'm looking for a sound when you type on an iPhone. Let's use just a keyboard that we used before. So let's see where it starts here. Okay, for every single let's take a look at what we've downloaded. Ooh. Actually, this sound might work for these words appearing at the top. Something like this? And for here, we need, like, a switch of some sort. I think we have, like, plastic. If we cut it here, no, actually, the opposite way, sorry. Like, so let's find when it appears and drop it in. Okay. Okay we might use this one again. Still, you can clearly hear it. Okay, so let's search for something else. Actually, let's delete this and search for iPhone notification. Where do we use it? Okay, let's see here. Oh. Sometimes also less is more, and that's why we can definitely use a lot of sounds here, but I think this will work even better because it's kind of simplistic. We're not using more sounds. I think it's simple, minimalistic, and that's why it works. Okay, so this is what we have in terms of the sounds. Let's listen from everything from the very beginning to the very end without me, and after that, we'll work with music. Okay, right away, this one needs to start a bit later, like a split second later. Mm. This one starts too late. We need to move it a little bit to the left. Okay, I think it looks great. These three, these are definitely too loud, so we should lower them by at least ten. Maybe minus five extra. Yeah. Hm. Let's search for music. Okay, since I'm creating a video about Apple, what kind of music would Apple use in order to create a video about Apple? In my opinion, it's sort of something like minimalistic, like their UI designs. But how can I search for the kind of music on pixabay.com? Actually, maybe we should search for just minimalistic I know. One thing I know for sure is that we will be able to use a song from Epidemic Sound because Epidemic Sound, I've been using them for the last, five, six years, maybe even more. They are absolutely great, and they have an unbelievable selection of music. If you want to check them out in the resources section, you can find a link for a 30 day trial. You can give it a try if you don't like it, cancel it anytime. Don't worry about it, but I really do recommend it. It is a small price, but then the videos become like, like, not just ten, but, like, 100% better. And as you can see, what I'm searching for these songs here it doesn't necessarily work the best way. Why? Because, you know, because this website is free. Epidemic Sound has a bit of a budget. They have so many professional artists like, really put their effort in, and let's try to find a song here bush. Mmm. I absolutely love this song. Okay, so let's download it and give it a try. So we've tried the free options. Free options. Yeah, there are some good options, but not the ones that we're looking for. Epidemic Sound, we found a song, How fast? Super fast. So let's take a look at the song. I think the song will work unbelievably well. We should start here. So I'm just going to select a small portion, drag it to the very front, cut it until the music actually starts, and drop it in. Okay. And then when a more interesting beat starts, I'm going to use this part. This is sort of the intro, the first part. And then for this part, we can use a different kind of song to build up the tension, the beat the interest. So let's put it here, try something like this. Okay, we need to cut it a little bit. Maybe, like, so but Okay, then for this part, I want to when the very interesting part of this song starts. Potentially here, let's drop it in. Okay, transition. And then I also want to have, like, the very action to build up around here. And then in the end, it's going to slow down to this part, which we can see here. Actually, let's start from the end here because I think this is going to be a very good ending to the song unless it's better here. This is going to be our end, so we'll drop it in, like, so. So we can delete this part for now. Beautiful. Now, for this part, yes, let's definitely use. I'm not sure which we'll go about this, but I'm not sure about the results. I'm just experimenting, seeing how things work out or not. Okay, let's take everything without my voice first. No it's unbelievably good. Unbelievably good. Now we just need to lower everything by -20 decibels, see if you can hear me. How much does Team Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made $74.6 million. That's 6.2 million dollar a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. And that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Wow. Turned out to be super great. Now, I can hear that the sound effects here are a little bit too loud, so we need to lower it down. How much does Steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. So let's lower it by, let's say ten and see what we have. How much does Steam Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made 74.6. This one needs to be lowered as well, by $5 million. That's $6.2 million. That's $6.2 million a month. Okay, this one needs to be lowered as well, by something like minus $5. That's $6.2 million a month. Absolutely, unbelievable. Okay. That's how you do the music. That's how you do the sounds effect. The sound effects. If you have any questions, let me know. Beside that. I'll see you in the next video. 23. Exporting & Showcasing Project 1: We are about to finish this video. We're almost done. And last thing we have to do is to properly export this video. So whether you work on the audio in after effects or you do it in premiere, both ways work fine. It's just a lot easier to do it in premiere than after effects because imagine having these many layers in after effects. That's a ton. So what we need to do is we need to export. First of all, we need to select I and we select O in the end. If you do it in after effects, you don't need to do that. You just go ahead and export your whole composition. Now, when we come to export, I do recommend you setting these settings. So this is a preset that I created. Basically, this is matching the source. Then we go into render at maximum depth. You use maximum render quality. Hardware encoding is just for faster export bitrate encoding. I set this one and target bit rate to 19. Now, you can definitely set it to maximum or you can go for this option here. I found that these settings work the best for me. If you want, you can just go ahead and copy. So let me set it back. Now, one thing I will tell you, which is super important if you want to export in Premiere, there's an issue with premiere when you export the video because the video that you export will not be as saturated. The colors will not be dark. So it's like it's it's as if the contrast was a little bit turned down. And if you want to avoid that, there's a way to do this. You will need to go into effect and you will need to apply a QT Gamma compensation lot. This lot actually makes the video more saturated. And if we don't do it, the videos will be a little bit less contrasty, but if you do it, you do it here. So you can select it, find it on your computer. Let's see where we have it. QT Gama compensation should be around, this is the one. Okay? So I just go ahead and open it, and that's it. You can download this slot in the downloadable resources as well. And then you can save your preset. You can customize the headings. You can go ahead and copy my headings. Then right click Save Preset, and you're good to go. Now, let's go ahead and press on Export. And you can actually see the difference in the export. So this is with the How much Tips so this is with QT Gamma compensation lot, and this one is without even by clicking, you can see the difference in saturation. This one is a lot less saturated or less contrast, and this one is a lot more. And it's better to always use this one otherwise the colors are going to look a little bit bland. Now, last thing we need to do, watch the video, make sure things are great. And if it's good, then we'll be able to go ahead and post it. Let's see. How much does Tim Cook make every second? Let's break it down. In 2024, Team Cook made $74.6 million. That's 6.2 million dollar a month, 1.4 million a week, 204,000 a day, 8,500 an hour, $141 a minute. And that's 2.3 $7 every single second. That's more than most people make in an hour, every second. Share this with a friend who needs a raise. Absolutely beautiful. Now, I'll give you a couple of tips on how to properly post these videos as well. If you post vertical videos, it's better to post it from your phone. Why? Because you have a bit more customization, especially in YouTube. In YouTube, in order to select a thumbnail on a short phone video, currently, you have to upload it from your phone. Or you can upload it from your computer, but still you have to go into your phone and then choose it from your phone. So we do recommend doing it from your phone. It's just a little bit easier, a bit more straightforward. For example, Instagram also doesn't allow you to change your bio or your links from the browser, you have to do it through phone, stupid, but it's just how these platforms work. Actually, I'm not sure about TikTok if there are any disadvantages, but it just it's easier to post it from your phone, so just go ahead and send it via, like, WhatsApp telegram, via airdrop, whatever option you want to choose from your computer, to your phone, post it from your phone, and you'll be good to go. So, this is the first video done. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, let's go ahead and start the next video. See you there. 24. Designing Your Glass UI Layout (Figma): Welcome. In this and over the next couple of videos, we're going to work on the horizontal video. We've worked on vertical. Now it's time to work on the horizontal. And specifically, we're going to create this new IOS 2026, this glass effect that's super cool, expensive, transparent. And let me show you a couple of things. So this is downloaded from the official Apple website, and this is what it looks like. So it's transparent but not fully, not 100% transparent. Some things are more transparent than others. It has sort of like a Gage and blur effect. But long story short, the way this effect is done is we are going to create this effect that's going to affect the whole composition. We're going to do that with an adjustment layer. We create an adjustment layer, create all sorts of effects. And then we basically track my this effect to a shape. That's it. That's the short story. The longer story we'll see in the future videos. But for now, we just want to keep this in mind while we are creating our UI designs, while we are preparing our UI designs. So we have this script. And the script, I think is already perfectly broken down because this is going to be horizontal video. Instead of using more of iPhone, I think we should use more of MACUI because we're going to have more real estate to work with, we'll be able to use more text on the screen. And I think it's going to play to our advantage. And I think the way this script is broken down is great. I think we should keep it this way. We shouldn't just break it, you know, into more lines. We will have so in this video, had one, two, three, four, five, six scenes because we have six different colors. And here we will have four different scenes. So it's going to be less less transitions, but more focusing on delivering the whole idea and the value. I mean, the previous video also did it, but in this video, we'll have a bit more time to play with this. I already went into IgM and started researching UI kits. And since we'll be working with Mac, I found this search for Mac EY, Mac OS Big Sir UI kit. And I was thinking about using maps. I think maps would be very interesting. So I found this specific light mode, basically open every single one of those. Now, let's copy copies SVJ open Illustrator, command to create new web laarge. Let's paste it in. Let's see what we have. I think there's going to be a ton of different objects. Okay. So it's the same issue we had previously where the images. So let's check this background. Okay. So even though I just pasted this image, it's still Shi let's create new layer. Yeah, it's still transparent. Okay, what if we copy as PNG and paste it in Background, copy, Illustrator, new layer, paste it in. Okay, we were able to paste it in. What we'll need to do now is to make sure it fits 1,000% correctly. Let's select everything, take everything out of this group, put it below layer two, and then we'll put layer two at the bottom. Maybe not at the very bottom. Like, so let's zoom in to see that it's actually perfect. Okay, this looks very beautiful. Command O. Now, let's do the same thing with this image. So we need to copy paste, S P and G, paste it in, and let's try to put it in exactly the same position. Okay. And let's copy this image as well. Let's select it first. Okay, there you go. Copy as Bing gi, paste it in. Beautiful, majestical. Absolutely next level. So now we need to take all of this, select all of this. Actually, we need to click click on our layer one and click here, and now we can select everything and drag it out. So now we'll be able to move every single piece around. So I just selected everything. I'm going to increase the size until we fit the whole screen. Shift O, and we can cut this thing to around here and press done. This one is ready to go. Command S, and let's have it on desktop and call it maps. Let's search for something else. What else do they have? Nodes like this? Mm. Beautiful. Browsers well super expensive. Mm. For browser, I think we can put like a text here and then lower to have a text here to make it pop even more. So I think browser works super great. Safari, Safari light mode. Yeah, I like the light mode more. So we'll select this one copy paste SPJ, Command N and paste it in. By the way, we can resize it from the very beginning to save ourselves a couple of nerves and shift O and cut it from the right, like so. Now we need to copy the image. Copy as pingi, paste it in Command V. There it is. Let's lower it down. Put it there, and let's make sure it fits perfectly once again. Perfect fit. Oh, we had a couple of icons disappeared. So we need to get these Zooming. This is the one we need. Copy paste, PNG paste it in to make sure it's the same size as the others place it in. Now, one thing is I copied it as an image, and you can see SVG is keeping a very good quality, and PNG is keeping not the best quality. H. Let's take everything out of the group to hear these guys also, so let's click on this layer, release, take everything out. Now, this is layer 22. It's this whole thing with text. Okay, we need to do a similar thing here. Take it out. These are there on layers now. Take it to the select all the layers. Okay, now every single one of these is customizable. Great. What about this text? So now we have the text separately. Command S. Let's call it Safari. This is pretty good. Let's come to Figma and search for more. For this portion, I'm following exactly the same steps. Go to Figma, going to Illustrator, saving the project, and I'm preparing two more designs. One is ap store. The other one is messages. There's no need for you to see what you've already seen ten times, so that's why I'm just speeding this up. Okay, and let's save this one. Command S, call it Abstoe. Great. So now we took like an hour to just find what we were looking to find. We have our four UIs. We have abstore message. This one, this one, and this one. Right. Well, if you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 25. Animating Hero Sections: Dynamic Intro + Text: Welcome. In this video, we are going to create our glass layers from the layers that we've created. Let's do exactly the same thing. We will create EPR composition. Welcome horizontal shift command N, and we'll do the same for AE. Now, let's create a horizontal video in PR and then we'll put it into after effects because first we need to cut out the Audio. New project. This is the one choose location. We can put it here, horizontal video, and let's create. Let's put our new recording here. Let's create composition first. In this case, sequence sequence settings, 1920, 30, let's do 30 frames, second. Okay, great. Sorry, I forgot it again. 1080 by 1920 should be like this. So we'll drop this one in, select or to match to make it louder. Let's listen. Mills. You learn everything step by step. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Okay. Let's select everything. Option A, and let's put it here and we'll call it horizontal video. So we can command Z, delete this Control S, Command Q, and we are here. Shift Command C, audio. Oh, by the way, yeah, we're doing it horizontally. So we can use this view as well. So let's go to notes. Okay, and we have a store, I message maps. I think Coppertino this is going to be maps. So we will mark it with blue because I want to mark maps with blue maps, Safari e message, Abstore. So this is going to be blue, as well. I think we should start with Safari. So we'll put it higher. So the first one is going to be safari. Okay. Let's come to after effects. Open safari. Don't need solids. We don't need graphic, delete, audio Okay main comp, select it like this. Call it audio. And let's drop Safari in, and let's begin. Composition layer size. Select everything, click on rest is from the very beginning, deselect everything, and let's decide where to put our text. So we have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 89. Okay, we'll use this text here. I'll just type it in like this. I'm going to select the text. This is the text. Now, let's type everything. You. Let's also get our fonts right. Actually, for now, let's write the word apple, make it white. It's definitely not bold. Probably regular size 14. Let's try 14. Bullet. Perfect. Where's this Apple text. I just want to put it here. And then I'll put this one on top. You. By the way, we should do it the way we should put the paragraph in center so that we can match every single word like this. And then when we type the word, it's going to start typing from the middle. Now we can just go ahead and duplicate it. P about about about Great. You're about to unlock you're about to unlock the exact, the exact animation style used I think we should put it here, in other words, too, unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. You were about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. Animation is not perfectly in the middle. Let's move it a bit to the right style used by Let's also move it a bit. Mm. Actually, I have an idea. Maybe we should switch places of this one so that we have apple here. Actually duplicate it. P, move it to the right. So we'll select both the layer below and above. And let's put it so beautiful. You're about animation by Apple. I want to put Apple because we have apple in the middle. So in the end there. We also disabled text that was here. Let's double check. Yes. One of the texts is here. Let's mark this another color suit that we don't forget. Let's mark, no, not red. Fuchia works great. Just to identify which one this is and that we should not hide it. Like so. I will use text Evo once again to make the animations. I'll select all the texts, and we're going to go up opacity Ws apply. Let's open U. And by the way, let's come to audio. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple Inc. We're going to put it here. Maybe we should put it below. I just remembered why we disabled this to add more text there. Anyway, we'll do it in a second. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creator. Select everything a A, the select. Okay, so this is the one win to change as well for this text. Okay, we need to copy one of these, put it at the bottom, change the position. Put this to the right for now. Okay, I do want to select this thing. Right click T and make the opacity a bit more. Like, so We'll put it down somewhere. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. Amazing. We'll do the exact same thing now. Safari, and then we'll make it. I mean, we'll change it in the future for now. We just want to put it here. Millions of views. Let's see where it ends. Now we select the text option right bracket to cut it. Now, let's find where here. Perfect. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. This isn't okay, I message Mac. So we'll have to play around with this one because we have a bit more work to do. I'm going to disable, so let's call it pictures. I'm going to disable the images here because they are taking a big space so that if I click anywhere on the screen, we have them selected, as you can see, like so, and we don't want that, so I'm going to disable them, and let's make a number of cuts. First of all, we'll create a mask here and we're going to mask this thing out, and we're going to invert the mask to exactly the same thing here. So invert the mask. And we'll see about this here. This isn't just motion design. I want to put it here, and we need to make it gray. This gray. It's definitely something like bold. Actually, there's a shortcut to move a layer to the top. I don't remember what it is, but what's a shortcut in after effects to move a layer to the very top or to the very bottom? Command shift and bracket. So command shift, bracket. Okay, now it's to the top grade. Now we can disable it. Duplicate the text, P, and move it to the right. Put the text in. Okay, this one is not bold. This one is regular and it is white. And I believe it is just a bit bigger. 15. And also, let's put this one to 20. Like, so we'll disable this text, and let's find this one, disable it, and enable this one. It's not regular. It's medium. Okay, where we'll leave it for now. We'll see. Doesn't look that different, especially if people see it for the first time, they're going to be like, Oh. I creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes BransfelPremium and content impossible to scroll past. Put it to the top to the very beginning. I'm going to use text evo again and let's write pasit plus words, apply this isn't just motion design. For this one, actually, yet, let's use a typewriter. For this one. What makes Brands fuel premium and content impossible to scroll past to design? It's what makes motion design. It's what makes Brands fuel premium and brands fuel premium. So premium is finished already here, so I'm just spitting up a little bit by 5%. It's what makes brands fuel premium and content impossible to scroll past. And speed up this one a bit. Scroll past. Great. So let's put it in. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freak? And I did exactly the same thing for the next two scenes, animating the text and aligning everything in the main comp. You're about to unload the exact animation style you used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past, whether you're a freelancer, editor, Bertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you'll learn everything step by step. Okay, so we have to text animation. Let me take a little pause, and after that, we will create our glass look. 26. Animating Glass Layers with Depth: Okay, now let's create the liquid glass animation. I'm going to create a new composition to put everything together there, and then we'll transfer it. 1920 by 1080, 30. To bonus doesn't matter that much. I'm going to create a shape first by pressing cue and shape with rounded rectangles. Put it like so, center the anchor point. Now let's create Jamar. Option Command Y. We're going to call it glass. And let's search for an effect called CC glass. Okay, we're going to call this square. And one thing we can do is we can create or we can add a wallpaper. That you see what's happening. Okay, we're going to put it at the bottom. So you can see if this is the difference. This is basically the liquid glass animation. We just need to change it. For the square, we need to use a nothing for stroke and solid color for the fill. It doesn't matter what color it is. Now, let's come to glass, surface, light. Okay, so here we need to select our shape. Let's put this one to 25. This one. So softness 25 height to 64 light. Let's use AE lights, and let's create a light, new light option shift command L. Option Shift Command L. Let's create new light. Let's create an ambient light with intensity 200. And we can put it at the bottom. The light only affects the three D layer, so let's make our square three D and let's track mat our glass to our shape. And there we have this glass. Let's duplicate it, and let's call it stroke. And here, we're going to enable stroke, non stroke. Let's make it white color, and let's make sure this layer is visible. The stroke width to something like two and the opacity to something like 50%. And we can also change the blending mode to overlay. We are getting let's duplicate this square again and let's call this one shadow. What we can do, in this case, is at a black fill, enable it. Let's search for effect called fast Box Blur and let's increase the radius to something like this. And let's track Mt our shadow to the square and let's do invert mat so that we have this kind of shadow. Can also play around with these settings to make sure we like the way it looks. Something like this. Let's live like this for now. Okay, let's also add a Gaon blur, and let's increase this blur. Let's do 15, just to make round numbers. And you will see in the example that we took looks very similar. So now let's pan the stroke to the square, and let's pan the shadow to the square. And now, if we move it around, this is what we have. The important thing is that, let's say we wanted to change the rectangle, like, the path of it, and we will do some like this. As you can see, this is not connected. And that's why we learned previously to connect the size position and roundness of each of these, so rectangle path and we connect the size to the size of the rectangle. So, let's do size. Let's do position, and let's do actually, we can bring it up a little bit, and let's do the roundness, and we can do the same thing here, and we can connect the size, the roundness, and the position, everything. And so now, let's say we customize it to be bigger, smaller, the other guys will follow as well. Perfect. Let's do it like this. Now we have all of our effects. We just need to bring it out to other compositions. So, for example, for Safari, what's actually going to be transparent here? So we can make this part transparent at the top, and we can make this part transparent, as well. I'm not sure if notifications will be transparent, but I'm pretty sure, yes, the notifications will be transparent. This part will be, and then we can go ahead and try to do it at the bottom here. Potentially because it's not going to be visible, we probably will skip this part, but we'll see. So let's just select everything and select the top part, and let's find it. And let's make it, create create shapes from vector layer, and we'll put it to the very top. Like, so so we need to bring our glass and come to Safari, paste it in, and then we need to track mat it to our so that it is like, so let's bring it down, but maybe not to the very bottom, a little bit higher Okay, let's bring it even higher. I don't know. Let's put it to here for now. So this is going to be our glass shape. And now we have to do exactly the same thing. We have to duplicate it. One is going to be stroke. One is going to be stroke. Sroke like this. And another one is going to be a shadow. We'll close everything else for now, aside from actually, let's rename this comb so that we are sure it is glass example. Okay? So for the stroke, we can do exactly the same thing as we did content. Let's find fuel. Okay. To put the stroke both, add stroke so we can disable the fill and enable the stroke, and we'll do exactly that. Pass it to 50% and let's to the mode overlay. To select everything, let's add a shadow, as well. For the shadow, we can just copy this fast box blur, put it onto the shadow, enable it. We need to make it black. Feel let's make it black. We will see that it's actually affecting this part as well, so we need to bring it down a little bit for too high up. So layer 25 is responsible for that. Let's track mat the shadow to the glass, invert it. And potentially we need to decrease also let's decrease the opacity something very low. We are definitely getting there. Glass, let's increase the blur. A bit more. And now let's compare. So this is what we have the glass animation, and this is not a glass animation. Glass, not glass, glass. Actually, let's see it here. Glass, not glass. Looks interesting but this glass effect. And now, all we have to do is literally copy paste the same thing onto every single thing that we want to look like a glass. Yeah, a bit time consuming. Let's see if we'll be able to do this. And actually, let's see if we even need this because we will probably zoom in like this, maybe even more. So I'm not sure if we'll need to see this part at all. Like, we can completely disable it because we're not going to use it. Mm hmm. Okay, for the shadow, as well, I'll tell you this. So we have this layer 25. I want to create a shadow. Layer 25 will turn it into shape. We'll put it to the bottom, enable this layer. And we'll just copy the fast box blur. Apply it. And I don't like the fact that it's doing shadow at the top here. But if we lower, actually, we can lower it down a little bit. Okay? So let's say we do like this so that we still have the shadow here coming from this one and from the bottom as well, so that we have shadow coming from all directions throughout. Yes, now it is beautiful. Also, we can try and change this text here, and let's just apply a feel effect so that it becomes white. And let's do the same for this one. Feel, it's going to be a white feel just so that it's more consistent and better visible. I mean, this style is not finalized with Apple yet, so we're not sure how things are going to look everywhere, but it should be a good contrast. And let's see, maybe, actually it was better before. What are your thoughts? Maybe it's better now. I also wonder what this white line is maybe it's better like this. I think it is. So before and after, it's definitely better, like so. Okay, so this is the glass animation. This is how you do it. Yeah, it looks great. Looks very expensive. See if we want to do it for the others, as well. I definitely don't want to mess with this one because I'm not sure how it's actually looking from the apple themselves. The maps also don't want to touch this at this very moment. Maybe we should try and do it at the top here, but other than that, shouldn't touch anything else. Here, maybe we should try it here and here as well. Okay, let's do it. I'm going to speed up this moment to not waste your time, but you get the idea. If you want to make something glass like, create shapes from vector layer, track mate the adjustment layer with the glass effect to that layer, create a stroke and a shadow, and play around with settings if you want to. Now, what we can also do if we go into the glass effect, if we go into shading, we can actually increase the brightness. So for example, here, it's going to look like this. We'll put it to, let's say, 100 and we'll put both to 100 because we need it to be brighter. Like so. Alright, I absolutely love the way this one turned out. Looks really great. This one looks, let's try to find this map thingy troke and this one, and let's just move it down, down, down, down until we go below the map. Mm hmm. So it's around here? Yes, this is the map. So let's take a look at everything. Here's what we have. The first one, the second one, third, fourth. Apple, glass. Animation. Oh, yes. Let's take a look at everything and see what we have. You're about to unlock the exact animation. I wish used by Apple. Big creators pooping. This isn't just boton design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes your work look like it came straight out of ubertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you'll learn everything step by step. Okay, let's take a little pause here. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see in the next video, we're going to put everything together. So, see you. 27. 3D Camera Movement & Transitions with Null Chains: In this video, we're going to finish up with the animations. We're going to create three D cameras, and we're going to animate everything. In terms of the camera and the movements, you will see we're going to use a combination of what we used in the previous project, where we're going to use the null to keep the quality, but on top of that, we're going to use camera. Let's get started with this one. Shift Option command Y to create a null, select everything except from the null, parent everything to the null. We'll call this Snow main null. Duplicate this one, connect this one to this one. This is going to be just a just a regular null. S P, let's make sure it is rising. Yes. Okay, where do we have the text? Okay, there we have it. So let's increase the scale. I would like to start a little bit higher. Maybe like so. Also, I'm going to lower the resolution to half because I know the quality is going to be good, but I also don't want to completely destroy my computer because since we'll be using a lot of stuff here, does take a lot of computer power. Actually, maybe we want to lower it even more. Third, you're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. Okay, so this is where it's supposed to end? You were about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. FN, F nine. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. And Creators pulling Apple create. Why is it so rigid here? Used by Apple. And creators No way. Every single one has a position. I made a mistake. In the very beginning, we have to go back to the beginning where I created the first null and started animating things because that's when I had selected all the layers, and that is when I created position key frames. Okay? So let's see P, P. Is everything good now? Okay, great. Who. Let's connect this one to this one. Okay, P and S, position scale. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. Great. Create a null, select everything, select the null, parent everything to the null, and let's do Man, null, duplicate, connect, no P and S. And now let's animate everything. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes Brands fuel pref. And content impossible to scroll ask. It's what makes brands fuel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Actually, I'd like to maybe let's just try fan of Ni these keyframes and see design. It's what makes Brands fuel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Great. Now, let's do a similar thing here. Once again, you're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes your work look like it came straight out of Kubertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you'll learn everything step by step. Ah, great. Okay. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past, whether you're a freelancer, editor or whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes your work look like it came straight out of Kubertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you learn everything step by step. Great. I am absolutely loving this. Okay. Let's create a three D camera shift option command C. For aperture, we'll put it to zero for now because I'll explain why in a second. Create a null as well, connect the camera to the null, make the null three D. Now we need to make these guys three D because camera only affects three D layers, and we need to zoom in like this, and we need to change the orientation slightly so that we have this three D effect. Now, let's zoom in even more, lower it like this. Let's not do such a big tilt. Let's do, like, five, maybe ten. Let's see what ten does. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple creators. And here, so we all do it like this. I do want to change the orientation. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple creators. Just return this one to zero. So we'll put zero here, F N F nine style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. So let's do full. We can double click on the camera and introduce the aperture. Let's do it like this. Let's create a second view. You can there come as before. Search for viewer, new viewer, you're going to create one, or you can just click there. And with camera, we need the focus distance. Like this. Now you can already see the kind of video we're going to get absolutely next level. We don't need aperture to be this big because we want to see what's happening on the screen. Let's do it in a way where we come back to third camera options, and we need to animate the focus distance. So we start from here, and then the focus distance needs to be there. And then once we come here, we need it to be like this. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. I do want to get rid of the camera here. Stick the full. You're about to unlock the exact animation style. Animations used by Apple Okay, the quality is just absolutely next level. The reason why we have these black bars is because the MacBook, the ratio is not 16 by nine. It's slightly different ratio. And when you take a screenshot on Mac if you fit it so that the top and the bottom part connect to the sides, then you get these black squares, and that's exactly what we have here. So we do need to zoom either zoom in slightly, so we can, you know, press Shift Option Command H and fit it to the screen. Actually, I think it might be the best thing to do. Okay, I would like to export it. Take a look at what we have, and if anything, we can always make changes. But for now, I think the beginning is really catching, and then we'll see what we can do, okay? So, let's export this you're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes your work look like it came straight out of Kupertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you learn everything step by step. I think it's not super in focus here, and we should maybe do it like this. So before and after. Yes, this is definitely more in focus. Now we need to turn on motion blur. Each frame is going to take like forever to load. Yeah, each frame is going to take 2 seconds to load as you can see here. Okay. Well, thank you for watching. This will render we'll see the final results in the next video where we're also going to work on the audio. I will see in that video. Thank for watching, if you have any questions, let me know, but other than that, I'll see you there in the next video. 28. Sound Design & Export for Project 2: Welcome. Today is a beautiful day. It is currently 6:45 A.M. On a Saturday morning, and we are at a final stretch at a finish line with this video where we just need to put the audio, the music, put everything together, export, and the video is ready to be used. I will say that it's been incredible journey taking you with me on this process, and I really hope you found a lot of valuable things because I'm really putting a lot of effort into this. One thing I want to say that if you are trying to get to your dreams, you are following your passion, you do have to do some extra for example, like working at 6:00 A.M. On a Saturday or at 8:00 A.M. On a Friday, I'm with you. I know what parking a lot means, and it's great. We should really appreciate what we have. We have the opportunity to do this, to learn new. And let's go ahead and get started. So I created the premiere pro sequence organized things over here. Now, we have our full video, which is absolutely great. I decided to use the video with Motion blur because it looks more expensive. First of all, secondly, since we did two exports and the first you're about to load the exp Actually, yeah, the first export is slightly out of focus. We have focus over here. But in the second version. You were about to unload the. We have our focus over here, which is perfect. And then with motion blur, it just looks more expensive. Once again, like this blur, how good is it? Unbelievable. In order to find sounds, I decided that I'm going to use epidemic sound for this project. We used pixel B for the previous project. Let's use epidemic sound for this. If you go into sound effects, you can find all sorts of effects here. We can either search for them, for example, like UY, right, and we will find All sorts of effects. Or we can go ahead and click on one of these, for example, User Interface. Most of the sounds I use every day are from epidemic sound like 90 plus percent. Throughout the years, I was able to create this sort of library myself. And it's not only epidemic sound, but most of the time I do use this one. So let me not bore you with this. Let me collect all the sounds, and then after that, we'll go into Premiere and put everything together. Once again, if you want 30 day free trial for epidemic sound in the resources section, if you want, you can click on Link LCUni bit. As I started researching, I was trying to understand what exactly what kind of sounds are we looking for. And to be honest, we don't need many sounds here. All we need is, like, music here because to be honest, it will be a bit too much to create sound for every single word. We can only do sounds for Wushes and swooshes. Example, here and here, we can add a keyboard here, but we have it. Keyboard here as well, even though it's not necessarily keyboard, but let's come here, search for swoosh. And I'm going to put the longest swoosh here. Creators. Amble. And we're going to put it when the camera goes two D instead of three D. By the way, we did have a little hiccup here. So you can see this is not motion blur, too. I just I just decided to cut this one frame, and that's it. Use. This isn't Because it's like one frame. It doesn't matter in terms of the audio. It doesn't affect any of this. So let's put another swish like this one here. This is views. This isn't just A bit later. This isn't just views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes? I think we can have this big swoosh when it's moving significantly on the screen, but not the transition. It's what makes brands feel prim? This swoosh, as well. Whether you're Whether past. Whether you're a freelance? We can do this huge swoosh, as well. This style makes content creator, this Peter, this style makes it work, and don't work. Okay, now, come here and let's search for our SFX folder, drag it in. And let's search for keyboard once again. Oh, let's see where we can use it. Not here. Yes, we can start using it here. Makes Brad's fuel premium and content impossible to scroll Pat. I think we can use a different part of this sound. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, I'm going to use another part for this part because I just want a bit variety with sounds and now when the event starts. Even if after effects spell overwhelming Before, okay? Before you learn everything step by step. Okay, great. So I'm going to lower this one to minus ten, all these wishes to minus ten, as well. I creators pulling millions of views. This is I'm going to search for permit to Q and apply it to one of the audios. Click on Edit and vocal enhancer. To see the difference. You were about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. I'm going to copy this effect and paste it onto other voice parts. Mmm. Okay, so I think in terms of the sound design, we can keep it simple like this. And then why don't we go to since we used Epidemic Sound last time, let's try to find a song on Pixel Bay. And let's search for something minimalism. This is minimalism, but not sure if I like it. By the way, I found this creator, pika this guy. I even created like bookmark for myself. Unbelievable music. Unbelievable. You can go ahead and find him, as well. I think I searched for Marimba and I found him. So let's take, yes. I would like to use something like Marimba from him. Okay, even though it's, like, scary Sci Fi, I think we can use parts of the song because it's just it's just beautiful. So let's put it in. Okay, I'm really enjoying this beginning part, so let's put it in. Maybe I can lower down, by the way, I can lower down and up by pressing Option and arrow keys. So let's put it here and let's see. You were about to unlock the exact I let's cut the silence in the beginning. Like second half a second silence. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes I would like to have this transition pop here. It's views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past, whether you're a freelancer, editor or tempore. So we don't have any song here, right? So I'm going to cut this one up, move it down by pressing option, and move this one to the left. And now just connect these two. You're about to unlock the exact animation style used by Apple. Mm. We can do a transition later. So we can start it from the same the same way we decided, but, like, have a transition here. Mm, not liking the way it's turning out to be. Let's deal with that in the end. Now, I want to use this bit somewhere in the end. Even if after a fact felt overwhelming before, you'll learn everything step by step. I'm not sure if this song works here, but I think these beats really sell the transitions and looks interesting. Let's figure out the part in the middle, in the beginning, sorry. Mm, let me try to do it like this. So let's see where it starts, like, exactly. Okay, so you saw what I did. Just found the part. Basically, it's like a loop in the beginning of the song. So I just found where it transitions, and then just put this end part of this loop because it's like, so let's say it's like, one, two, three. It's four different loops, this very beginning part because it's like, the same keys are being played and I can just hear it. So that's how I was able to do this effect. Just lower everything minus ten. You're about to unlock the exact animation style. Minus five and this I will do minus ten. I'll also create another transition here. Just by Apple and creators pulling millions of views. This isn't just motion design. It's what makes Brands feel premium and content impossible to scroll past. Whether you're a freelancer, editor or content creator, this style makes your work look like it came straight out of Kubertino and don't worry. Even if after effects felt overwhelming before, you learn everything step by step. A lot of it is just the personal taste. I very like the way it's turning out to be. I don't think the song is working the best with the kind of video we have. I might change this in the future. However, I think for now, specifically, I'm really glad how it turned out. Really, really. Well, I think we'll stop here. If you have any questions, let me know. But other than that, I'll see you in the next video. 29. Last step!: Congratulations.
