Level Up Your Typography: Creating Animated Stickers in After Effects

Are you looking to add something more to your Typographic work, capture the attention of your audience on social media or simply diversify your skills and portfolio as a digital creator? With simple animation techniques, you can elevate your compositions, expand on your narration, and give character to Typography.

My name is Manon Louart, and I am a graphic designer, motion designer and illustrator based in France. In this class, I'll be showing you different ways to animate Typography using After Effects.

In this class, you'll learn how to:

Create writing animations
Create Text echo animations
Animate Text Distortions in 3 ways
Animate Dust and Grain Textures
Apply these techniques to secondary animated elements
Take advantage of Expressions to speed up your workflow
Export for the web
I'll first introduce each notion along with a short animation exercise, and once you're confident with your new skills we'll move on to the main project.

I'll take you through my entire process from sketching out ideas and choosing typefaces, to animating them and exporting your creation.

The final class project will be a 4 second looping video of Animated Typographic Stickers.

Who is this class for?

This class is perfect for creators with a basic knowledge of After Effects, Intermediate Motion Designers looking for new tricks, or even Graphic Designers wanting to quickly add visual interest to their typographic creations.
