About This Class

WHY TAKE THIS CLASS?

If you've been editing in Premiere Pro and keyframing still feels like a mystery — or you've been doing it the slow, manual way — this class is for you. I've spent years editing video professionally and I'm sharing the exact settings and techniques I wish someone had shown me early on. These aren't just basics — some of what I cover you genuinely won't find in most tutorials.

Keyframing is one of the most powerful tools inside Adobe Premiere Pro — but most editors either avoid it or barely scratch the surface of what it can do. In this class, I'm pulling back the curtain on the settings, techniques, and workflows that most tutorials skip over.

Whether you're brand new to keyframing or you've been editing for a while and just want to level up your efficiency, this class is built to give you a complete foundation while showing you the hidden gems inside Premiere Pro that will make your editing life a whole lot easier.

Here's what we'll cover:

  • Lesson 1 – What is Keyframing? We start from the ground up so you actually understand what's happening when you set a keyframe — not just how to do it, but why it works.
  • Lessons 2 & 3 – The Little Things Pt. 1 & 2: These two lessons are all about the settings inside Premiere Pro that most editors don't know exist. Small tweaks, big difference.
  • Lesson 4 – Keyframing Types: A breakdown of every keyframe type, what each one does, and when to use them.
  • Lesson 5 – Keyframing Video: A practical demonstration of the different ways you can keyframe a video clip and the nuances that come with each approach.
  • Lesson 6 – Adding Motion Blur: Learn how to use the Shutter Angle property inside the Transform effect to add realistic motion blur to your edits.
  • Lesson 7 – Keyframing Audio: A niche but powerful technique using the Lowpass effect to keyframe your audio in a way most editors have never tried.
  • Lesson 8 – Keyframing Color: I'll show you exactly where to find keyframing capabilities inside the Lumetri Color settings so you can start animating your color grades.

By the end of this class, you'll have a solid understanding of keyframing from top to bottom — and a handful of techniques you probably won't find anywhere else.

Transcripts

1. Intro: This class is going to show you why keyframing is so underrated. And why you should be focusing a little bit more on it. Keyframing is a technique that we don't focus on until we need it. And then we go in there and we're like, Uh, that should be good enough, and that's it. But give me 30 minutes of your time, and I'm gonna show you how to make your videos way more dynamic, way more entertaining, way more digestible. I'm not going to keep going. My name is Hart. A lot of people call me Hart to plug. You can call me whatever you want to, but don't call me late for dinner. Sorry about that. I've been a full time content creator for about half a decade. Basically, traveled the world. I learned how to do a lot of really cool stuff. And still keyframing is one of my favorite things to play with. And just so you get full transparency of what you're getting into, we're first going to talk about what keyframing is, the uses of keyframing. And then we're gonna hop straight into actually creating our keyframes, our Beziers, which is the, you know, adult version of keyframing, if you know what I mean? And at the very end, I'm going to show you how to make your very own keyframing presets. If you want this to be the last video you watch for How to keyframing Premiere Pro, you come to the right place. I'm going to take very good care of you and let's hop right into it. Two. 2. Class Project: Before we hop into it, let's cover the class project, which I kind of already explained. You're going to create your own keyframing presets by the end of this class. You're not going to do it right now. The second to last lesson we do, I'm going to show you how to take the effects you built, the keyframing effects and save them as a preset so that you can drag and drop them onto your clips the very near future, I'm hoping. That will mean it doesn't matter if you're working with your ten ADP timeline or your four K timeline. You will have dragable keyframing effects at all times. It's really nice to have. I'm telling you. Also, find the zip file in the projects and resources. I have some sample footage in there of my talking heads of my videos that we're going to work with. If you want to follow along with me in that way, you can. If you don't want to and you want to use your own footage, you can do that, too. It would be better if you had your own footage so that you could tailor your keyframing effects specifically to how you make your videos. Either way, really doesn't matter that much. The ones we're going to do will be helpful to you in some way in the future. So with that being said, let's get into Lesson one. What is keyframing? 3. What Is Keyframing: Before we get started, go ahead and go down below and download the follow along zip, extract it, bring it into Premiere. We're going to work with the vertical footage first, and then we'll move to the horizontal. I'm assuming most people will need to see the vertical first. So go ahead and drag that vertical clip onto your timeline, and if this comes up, just change sequence settings, okay? This is ten ADP footage, but all the key framing that you do on a clip, it basically affects every clip you put it on the same. And I'll show you that right now. We can all go to File New, and sequence and just press Okay. And then we're going to drag our horizontal clip on this sequence here. And now we have both vertical horizontal sequences. I'm going to put one of my presets on both of these clips, and we're going to see that they react exactly the same. So the vertical starts like this. And the horizontal starts like this. This one is four K, and this one is ten ADP, you see it reacts exactly the same. So don't worry about making multiple keyframe presets for a ten ADP clip, a four K clip. You don't need to do all that. So let's quickly go over what key framing is, like, actually, and what it does. So all key framing is a reference point to mark a start and an end to a change that you want to make. That's pretty much it. It can be position, scale, that's motion. It can be audio, it can be opacity. It can be color, anything inside of your video clip, you can keyframe pretty much. If you want a specific part of your video to undergo a change over a certain amount of time, you keyframe. We used to only have one place we can keyframe, and now we have two, the effect controls and the properties. The effect controls, the keyframes are right here on the sides, these little stop clocks. The property keyframes are right here. It's how you insert them. Being able to keyframe in the properties tab is kind of new 2025 version premiere. I think it came out. So I don't really use it like that because I'm very used to using the effect controls, and I feel like it's perfectly fine. If you are already keyframing, you probably aren't coming into these sub menus where you actually have this slider here. And that's because no one really talks about it. But this is where the actual magic happens in key 4. The Little Things Pt. 1: So now that we've covered what key framing is and what we can use it on, let's go ahead and just start keyframing. Before we do, I want to show you everything you probably don't know about the process of keyframing. So the first thing I want to do is show you how to change your view inside of this box here. It can sometimes get a little confusing when you're looking for certain keyframes and you have all this information available, okay? To only view the properties that you've put keyframes on, go ahead and go down here to this button that looks like a filter. Click on it, and you'll see show all properties, show only keyframed properties. Show only edited properties. What you're looking for is show only keyframed properties, and you can see it's gotten rid of all the other properties that don't have any keyframes. Is really convenient when you know you're not going to touch anything else, and you know you're going to be doing a lot of work with these specific properties, then you can filter the other ones out. If you ever need to go back, of course, you can just go back down to the filter button and click on Show our properties again. And you. Next, I'm going to use these shapes to show you how to manipulate your path. So with my clip selected, I'm going to go up here and initiate a keyframe for both scale and position. Let's scroll forward in time a bit, and let's go ahead and change this to the middle and the center. Now come back up under the effect controls and go ahead and click on the motion property, and you'll notice that this line appears. Notice that the line is straight. That is a linear keyframe, which is created from your basic keyframe. These are linear keyframes. I'll show you right here under temporal inepllation. Linear is pre selected when you create keyframes from the jump. We'll get into the rest of these very soon. So let's zoom in on these keyframes, and we're going to just press play. And you can see how that moves in a straight line. It's very rigid, right? Next thing we're going to do is go in the middle here, right about the middle, and we're going to add another keyframe. Now you can see that a middle one has been added. If you press Alt or option on your keyboard and then click the middle keyframe and drag it, now it's going to keep it rigid. So now this should make a very sharp turn in the middle. So any keyframes that you add up here will show up in the path, and you can manipulate the path from here if you'd like. Now, something like this isn't really that practical, but I can show you how you can improve on this in just a few clicks. I'm going to go ahead and take the scale keyframes off, and we're just going to work with these. And honestly, let me just filter these. So one thing about keyframes, people don't tell you is that there is a way to manipulate the keyframes themselves and then the keyframes that exist in the middle that the software creates. These are keyframes here, but all of these dots in the middle are also keyframes created by the software we put in our parameters, just so that you can make the paths that you want very quickly. Premiere does most of the work for you. So how do we take a sharp turn or a linear pattern like this to the next level with a few clicks? We're going to go to our middle keyframe selected, and go ahead and right click it. Go down to Spatial Interpolation, and we're going to turn this into a Bezier. The spatial interpolation settings are the settings for all the in between keyframes. Temporal interpolation controls your actual keyframes. So the behavior of your actual keyframes lies here. The behavior of the in between keyframes lies here, okay? So remember that. So take a look at this path, and we're going to go ahead and change our middle spatial interpolation to a Bezier, and you can see that it rounded that out. So now the path looks like this, it cuts out that jarring turn. 5. The Little Things Pt. 2: More thing before we move on, we're going to go ahead and talk about pin to clip. This is a kind of unique situation and not that unique because it happens every time I keyframe, but I'm going to go ahead and make two keyframes here, and we're going to go ahead and shorten this clip like that. So sometimes when you're keyframe, you're going to have situations like this where your keyframes are just off of the clip, right? And usually what you'd have to do is lengthen the clip both ways so you can get access to those and then drag them back where they should be. But that's annoying. So here's how you're going to fix that. With your clip selected, go up to the Effect Controls panel and then click on this right here, little hamburger sign. You're going to scroll down to pin to clip and select that. Now, all you have to do is go down here to your scroller and then just extend it. And now you can see everything outside of that clip. Basically what pins a clip does is it ensures that the Effect Controls panel like this right here, everything in here, doesn't go outside of where the clip starts and ends. So instead of extending your clip on both sides and trying to find where your key frames are and pulling them back, just go up here, click that setting, and then highlight these, pull them back into the white area, and then you're good to go. Make sure you go back and change that back because it is actually a helpful setting. So this actually is very important because sometimes you want to adjust the keyframe, and it's really hard sometimes to get exactly on it when you're scrolling like this. Go ahead and press Shift on your keyboard, and then you're going to drag. That is going to snap your playhead to your next keyframe, wherever you're dragging to. Very, very useful. Use that. We're going to cover something called responsive design. And this is mainly for graphics. So I'm going to use a text graphic to show you this little technique. It is really helpful. Now, this clip I recorded in Toronto. So I'm going to type Toronto Canada. So I've keyframed the title to look like this. Pretty good for something quick. If I want to drag this graphic out, but I want to keep the same keyframing that I put in there across the whole clip, it's not going to work like this. If I want this to last over the entire clip, I have to use responsive design. It's very easy to use, and it's right up here. Now, you can barely see it, so let's go ahead and stretch this out so you can see what we got going on here, and I'll put this playhead in the middle. I'm going to zoom in so you can see these little blue rectangles here in the corners right there and right there. You get these points which you can drag around, and everything that's highlighted inside of those points is basically safe area. These things will remain the same. So I'm going to highlight my front two and my back to with these little areas. As I stretch this clip out, you can see that these get further and further apart from each other. The position of those will not change. Basically, where you can get something like this. And then on the out, you have this. But when I stretch this out, it doesn't matter how far I stretch it out, that animation will remain the same where you left it on the front in the end of the clip. Pretty cool, right? 6. Keyframing Types: Going to have our circle and triangle race each other. This is going to sho us how the different keyframes work. Okay? If we look into our options here, we have linear Bezier, auto bezier, continuous bezier, hold, ease in and ease out. Now, we're going to do Es in and Ease out on the next lesson, but we will go over the differences between these first five here. So we've already explained what linear is. We don't need to get back into it. It moves whatever you are key framing in a straight line, that is pretty much it. But I want you to see the comparison of movement with linear versus bezier. So our triangle at the bottom here, we're going to keep linear. On our circle, we're going to turn these keyframes into beziers. The only difference between these beziers and the linear keyframes under our triangle, it's just the movement they're undergoing. And this is the perfect example. Because this line is straight, Premier is going to categorize these key frames as linear keyframes, these diamonds. As soon as you select one and you say, I want you to curve this a little bit, boom, that turns into a bezier. This one over here is still linear because we haven't touched it. Let's grab that and bring it on so you can see. You see everything before this linear keyframe is straight, and everything before this one is not. If we take this one, grab it and pull it down. Well, now this one also is a bezier now. We've kind of went in reverse here because now the triangle is more of a bezier keyframing pattern than the circle. Let's just go ahead and turn these back into linear ones, and then we'll see how they compare. Our circle is on a linear path, our triangle is on a Bezier path. And you'll see a triangle barely got there faster. The triangle is pulling forward a little bit more. That's because if we zoom in here, these corners are actually speeding up and slowing down. If you want to visualize it, the peak of this arc, so all the way at the top, that's where our linear line sits all the way across. It does not speed up, it does not slow down. This speeds up in the beginning, it gets to the regular speed, and then it speeds up again. And that's why over time, the triangle is pulling ahead over the circle. So the Bezier keyframes allows you to manipulate the velocity and the linear bezier, the velocity is straight across on that line. Now we're going to work with our circle only. Let's go ahead and delete our keyframes here. So I created a circular motion with this circle, and this is how I'm going to show you the differences between the auto bezier and the continuous bezier. Just as your keyframes are linear, starting off, your in between keyframes are actually starting off as auto bezier. That's because our actual keyframes that we collected are following a linear pattern, not our in between keyframes. They are on an auto bezier pattern. Now sometimes this works out for you. Sometimes you want to change the continuous bezier. And this is I do that. Go ahead and select one of the key frames in the middle, and then you're going to go back down to spatial interpolation. Go ahead and click on Continuous bezier. Now, if you play this again, you won't see much change to the actual animation itself. The path itself has not changed at all. The auto bezier gives you basically no control. It just creates in between frames from what you input, and that's pretty much it. Once you start going in here and manipulating stuff yourself, that is now a continuous bezier. Now, one feature that is exclusive to continuous bezier is this right here. When you drag these parameters around, you see how both sides are moving. It allows you to adjust both sides of the keyframe instead of one. Switching over your keyframe spatial interpolation to Bezier. Now when you move a parameter, it only moves one side. If you want control over one side and not both switch over to Bezier. If you want control over both sides, you switch the spatial interpolation to continuous Bezier. And or if you want to take full control over your keyframe path, you have to switch it out of auto bezier and switch it into continuous. So that, my friends, is linear Bezier autobzier and continuous. I don't really think I need to show you what the hold does, but I guess I will. So I'm going to go ahead and make a new keyframe here, and we'll go ahead and go down to temporal interpolation. I want this to hold, and I want this next one. To go that way, and we're going to change this to a continuous bezier. So once you hit the ground of the previous keyframe in the hold, so all of this right here, it's going to stop. So notice that it stays stopped until it gets to the next one and then it jumps over. So if you want a keyframe to hold, then yeah, that's what you could use that for. So that is linear Bezier, auto bezier, continuous bezier and hold. In the next lesson, we're going to go to our last level of key framing, create our actual keyframes that we're going to make into presets, and I'm going to show you the ease in and ease out animations. 7. Keyframing Video : Motion / Scale: Do have your own personal footage to work with, I would just do it with that, and you can save these presets for something more similarly to match what you usually do. But the things that we do here is going to apply to pretty much everyone. We're just going to do simple Zooms and stuff like that. So let's get right into it. We're going to keyframe video, audio, color. And then finally in the next lesson, we're going to just save our presets so we can always dragon drop them on our clips, and then you'll be good to go. I'll leave you alone. This is the first time I'm going to request you to actually use the exact same clip I'm using cause I want us to create a few zooming effects for a talking head video. We're going to select our clip, and then we're going to go up here to our effect controls tab, of course, before we create our keyframe for any talking head, where you want to zoom in on a specific person right underneath motion, we're going to go to anchor point. This right here. Click on that, and you're going to see this little blue circle with a cross in the middle pop up. Wherever you put this dot, that's where the Zoom is going to go. I'm gonna go to the start of the clip. Click on your anchor point up here, and then you're going to grab that anchor point and place it on your nose or wherever you want to zoom. This is for faces, this is for objects, anything, really, depending on how well the placement of your anchor point is, you really don't have to bother with changing the position here. Alright? So that is anchor point. Let's undo everything we just did, and now we're going to get serious. So let's go up to the Effects tab, and let's type in Transform. Okay. You're going to come underneath here, and you're going to find this one, Transform. Fun fact. When you have your clip selected, all you have to do is double click on there, and as you can see, transform has just populated under our fet controls tab. We're gonna go ahead and close up the motion tab, and we're going to be keyframing now with this transform property. Why? Because transform property has shutter angle. Shutter angle is going to give your footage a little bit of motion blur while the movement is happening. Let's go ahead and set our parameters. We're going to initiate a keyframe for skill and position, okay? Make sure we're at the beginning of the clip. We're going to go forward in time. And then we're going to go ahead and zoom in a bit, okay? Now we're going to go to position and make sure that we are in a good place and a good third of the frame. And that should be good. And honestly, we need that to be a little bit faster. There we go. Something like that. So it's very similar to what we did before. So, if you want something smooth, this is all you have to do. So starting from the linear key frames, select your back keyframes, go to temporal interpolation. Go ahead and choose ease in, okay? And you're going to choose ease out on the front. Why is it ease out and ease in? You're easing out of this ramp, and then you're easing into the ramp. So ease in on the out and ease out on the in. Okay. So that's where you want to start from. There's one more thing I do want to show you with the E's in and Es out, and this is to do with keyboard shortcuts. Let's go up here to premiere and then go to Keyboard Shortcuts, and I want you to type in this. Ease in, okay? Scroll down until you see the effect controls panel right here. And these two are the ones we want to assign the keys to. To see the rest of it, it might be hidden for you. Scroll in between commanded shortcut. Click here, and then just scroll over. So now you can see it's ease in and ease out. So remember, on our first set of keyframes, we want to ease out. On the last set of our keyframe, we want to ease in. So this ease in, we're going to do a period, okay? The E's out, we're going to do a comma. Now, if you get a message down here that says that keyframes, your new keyframes are going to conflict with your old ones, just go ahead and click on both of these. And at the top here, you'll be able to see everything that's assigned to this key. You want to keep these, okay? And you want to delete anything else. I can't really remember what was there, but it's not important. Trust me. So once you've got that set up, go ahead and press. Okay. Now let's select both sets of our keyframes Pressma, press period. And now you've got E's in and Es out already put on your stuff. Is that not awesome? That saves so much time. 8. The Transform Effect: If you want a little bit of motion blur with your Zoom, then go ahead and click on Transform, and then we're going to go down to shutter Angle, okay? Now, we're not key framing this at all. What I want you to do is just type in 180, okay? I always start at 180, and I drag it up from there if I need more, but the top of it is 360. So let's look at it at 360. Now, this clip is better for this because we can zoom way more than we already have. So we're going to zoom all the way here. And now we have this. So you can clearly see the motion blur on that one. If you didn't have the motion blur on there, it would look like this, right? It adds a little bit of motion blur to your movement. It looks really, really good. I'm gonna go ahead and take this over here, and I'm gonna just paste this here. And we'll see it do the same thing. You can really see it there. Oh, that looks good. So when you're zooming in, it really sells that motion of the zoom in, right? So, whenever you want a little bit of motion blur with your zooms in your keyframes, use the transform property. Don't just use the motion. You can't do it inside of the motion. And just keep in mind, the further that you move in, the better the effect will look. So I'll even show you here. Oh, that is a very creepy face, man. What's going on? So I added a lot of zoom onto this one so you can see it. The more movement, the better for this, little motion blur thing. And you can see it really well there. That looks so cool. So on your footage, I want you to do this right now, right? Do this right now. Put that clip to the side because we're going to save that as a preset in the next lesson. 9. Audio Keyframing Example: We're going to move on to keyframing audio. It is literally the same thing, so I'm not going to really talk about the key framing process of key framing the audio. What I want is to kind of expand your mind on what you can do with keyframing Audio. So keyframe as many clips and as many variations as you want to on those clips and then push them off to the side. Get done with that first, and then now we're going to talk about audio. So you should already have this audio file. I put it in with the zip of the follow along. Go ahead and put this audio clip on the timeline, and we're going to do some stuff to it. With our audio clip selected, we're going to go up to the Effects panel, okay? And then we're going to type in ow pass. We're going to find this one. So remember, like I said, if you want to quick add some effects, just have the clip selected, and then double click on it. I'll pop up here. Once you get your low pass on here, you're going to come here to the cutoff, and I want you to drag this all the way up to the top, okay? And then create a keyframe. Now, this is a technique I use all the time. If I were to stop talking right now, the music behind my voice would become less muffled. And I bet you didn't even notice that the music sound like that. You just knew everything was right. Music makes people feel a certain type of way. So if you want people to feel what you're saying while you're saying it, you can put a track, a really good song in the background, where they can just barely hear it, but it supports your message, you know? So opas is very simple. The higher the number, the less of the effect you have. The lower the number, the more of the effect you'll have. So you'll see right now you can hear it just fine. Right? If we take this down, you'll see it's muffle now. Get it? So I'll say about right here. I'm going to go ahead and make my first key frame all the way at the top of the low pass, so there's no effect being applied right now. I want the effect to hit as soon as the drums drop, okay? So I'm gonna wait until the drums drop. Right there, and I'm going to actually click here and I'm gonna type in 1,000. 1,000 is a number I like to start out with a muffled sound, and I can move it around from there if it's too much or if it's too little, right? So now let's listen to what it sounds like. There you go. So what we just did there applies to literally everything. I'm not gonna go too deeply into editing audio and stuff like that in key framing. Keyframing itself, you've already got by this 10. Where To Find Color Keyframing: Not least keyframing color. Now, I'm not going to do too much with this either because like I said, you already understand key framing. I just want to show you where to do it because it is kind of hard to find. Depending on what window you're in, you probably won't even have your lumetri color tab even here. And the thing is, I don't like switching over to the color tab because it changes my entire layout. I edit the way I edit, you know, for a reason. So if you are in the editing workspace or you created your own, by the way, you can create and save your own workspaces, and it's really you should do that. Just go to Window, and you're going to scroll down here, and here it is right here, Lumetri and color. Just select that. And now you've got your Lumetri color here. Now, if you look, you'll say, Well, where are the key frames at? Well, they're not here. So go ahead and select your clip and then go up to the Effects panel. Type in Lumetri Scroll down until you find color correction, Lumetri color. Go ahead and double click. And here we have our lumetri color inside of our effect controls panel. Remember, like I said, the only two places you can really keyframe is the properties and the effect controls. So that's why you won't be able to find any keyframes in the lumetri color. Now, this lumetri and color property we just added is synced to this lumetri and color. Tab, kay? Well, if I pull the exposure all the way up to three, you'll actually be able to see that change here, okay? So you don't have to worry about, you know, Oh, I have to make a change here. It's not going to affect the other one. That's not tru. But what you won't see over here is your stop clock. You can keyframe everything, literally everything in here. So if you want to make color changes slowly, you can do that. Like, if I want to bring this exposure down over time, I would just go to the beginning of my clip. I will go ahead and initiate a keyframe for exposure, go forward in time a little bit, and I'm going to click this, switch it back to zero, that'll automatically create my next keyframe for now we have this bright going back down to dark, and it looks amazing. Now, just like everything else, if you wanted this to be very smooth, you can go ahead and turn these into Beziers or you can do the good old ease in on the back, ease out on the front trick to make this nice little curve. And now this change will happen very gradually, right? So that is keyframing video, audio, and color. What I really want you to take away from this class is all the little things that I shared before we even got into the keyframing because those save me a lot of time, and it just makes editing so much more fun. This next lesson is probably going to be a minute or under because creating the actual presets is so easy. So let's do that. 11. Conclusion : Keyframing Presets: Got your keyboard shortcuts. You've got everything you need to know about the nuances of keyframing and how to keyframe yourself from scratch. I don't know what else I can show you. Oh, yeah, that's right. How to export them as presets. And when I say export, I don't mean outside of from her. They actually go somewhere very close. Okay, so I'm not going to waste any more of your time. So we have our little Zoom effect here that we keyframed, okay? You can do this on as many clips as you want, as many variations as you want. If you want, you can save a preset of the audio thing we did with the Lowpass. Think of all the things you have to do a lot with keyframing and see if you can do it right now, keyframe it, and then save it as a preset. So all you're going to do is select your clip go to the Effect Controls panel, and you're going to scroll down to where your keyframing is. In this case, it is under our Transform property. If you didn't use the transform property and you use motion, then you're going to select the motion. I'm going to go ahead and select Transform. Right click Save Preset. Is that not so simple? Don't worry about anything here. You don't have to click anything there. Go ahead and name your preset whatever you want. I'm going to name my fast Zoom. Middle. And then press okay. Now that you've saved your preset, this is where it goes. Go to the Effects tab up here, and then go ahead and just click the drop down under presets. And the one I created is right here. Now, you see, I have a low pass preset, Osmo pocket preset. This is like the color grades that I did. This is my talking head preset for my actual camera that you're watching me off of. Um, I have two transform presets, and then here are my audio presets that I've saved. To save your audio presets, it's literally the same thing. Go ahead and click on your Lowpass, right click Save Preset, name it, and then press Okay. It'll be up there in the Effect Controls panel, right? So, hopefully, you got a lot from this class genuinely. I had a lot of fun making it because, you know, keyframing is like, in my eyes, one of those underrated type of editing techniques that, you know, people just gloss over when you can do so much with it, honestly. If you did enjoy this class and you got something from it, I would appreciate if you left a review. Tell me how I did. Tell me how I could, you know, do better on my next class because do have sort of like an unorthodox way of teaching. In fact, I recorded a whole two hour session that you're never going to see because I felt like I wasn't focused enough. So hopefully, this one, you know, I delivered the information and the knowledge that I had a little bit better, a little bit more straight. And, yeah, that's pretty much it for me. I hope you guys actually, like, make something that you're really proud of. Like, I hope you start enjoying the process of keyframing because it is really cool. So that being said, have a great rest of your day and go forth and make some crazy stuff. If this is your first time watching my classes, I have, like, I don't know how many. I forgot. Five classes, maybe. I think five or six that I've already made, a whole range of stuff, but mostly basics on video editing, photo editing, and then also UGC creation to make a little bit of extra money. So if you're interested in that, go ahead and go watch those classes, and I will see you very, very soon, hopefully.
