In animation, a series of frames creates the illusion of motion. Keyframes control that illusion; they're integral to motion. Learn how to animate properties–Position, Scale, Opacity, and Rotation–by adding keyframes along your timeline. As your comfort builds, add more keyframes to create rich and layered animations.

Keyframes

Keyframe interpolation determines manner of movement between keyframes to make your animations smooth and lifelike. Learn how it expands the world of motion as we demystify the curve presets in the easing panel.

Keyframe Interpolation

Parenting is the process by which you create links between layers, designating a parent and child to respectively control and inherit transformations. It will simplify your workflows, save time, and enhance your animations. 

When linking layers, timing is everything–learn the dos and don’ts, plus more about Controllers, Anchor Points, and organization.

Masks are shapes that when applied, selectively reveal portions of layer(s). Masking makes it easy to combine and contain layer characteristics, enabling quick and advanced designs. 

Learn how to introduce masks to your workflow as we review the available tools and methods, plus a few potential applications.
