Dynamic 3D Kinetic Type Animation | After Effects Tutorial
In this video I’ll show you how to create kinetic 3D typography in After Effects. These techniques could work well for similar music or lyric videos, or anything the needs a bold, bombastic animation approach. This isn’t a step by step tutorial on the whole segment of animation I showcase at the beginning. That would take hours and be a waste of your time. Instead I’ll show you the techniques I use to create work like this. Camera animation techniques in After Effects. How to easily create a guide track for the text. Expressions for overshoot on camera moves. Using match cuts to blend different animations together. And using effects, layer modes and other tutorials to create a bespoke look for your animation. ============================================================= FREE RESOURCES: ► Download the FREE After Effects project file for this tutorial: https://thevideoshop.gumroad.com/l/kp... ► Explore more free project files from my Gumroad: https://gumroad.com/thevideoshop ============================================================= REFERENCES: ► Pop Type: / pop_type_no_plugins ► Hannes Seth: / @hannesseth ► Eminem Kinetic Type Animation: https://x.com/afkflea/status/19125109... ► Inertial Bounce Expression: https://www.graymachine.com/top-5-eff... ============================================================= RECOMMENDED TOOLS (Affiliate Links): Get $50 off Motion Array: https://bit.ly/3Vsv4LV Get $50 off Artlist: https://bit.ly/43UKqgU (This video isn't sponsored, but using these links means I may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.
