November 9, 2006 at 4:44 pmLook into the topic of Bezier Keyframes.
They allow you to adjust the interpolation speed of a property. What’s that mean? Well, it’s pure AE lingo, and if you’re going to stick with AE, you’ll need to know it. In plain English it says, “you can adjust how fast something changes”.
Let’s say you’re scaling something from 20% to 100%. You want the rate of the scaling to slow down as it approaches 100% so it looks nice and smooth. You have two keyframes. Highlight the second keyframe, then in the menu go to Animation>Keyframe Assistant>Easy Ease In.
Now your scaling slows down as it approaches 100%. You want it slower? Twirl down the little triangle next to the Scale property. Put the timeline cursor over the second keyframe, and play around with the handles on those curves you see.
Bezier keyframes is a big, complex subject, and you can’t know it all in one post. But you’ll learn a lot by looking at AE help, and playing around with them.
