  How to do statistical motion graphics?

  Posted by Jared Hansen on March 27, 2019 at 12:34 pm

  Hello. I´m currently working on a documentary project, and I´ve been wanting to add some statistical motion graphics, kind of like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DgMVwOmpxk

  I presume I have to have some sort of document and link it up somehow. Anyway, I´d appreciate if someone could help. Thanks.

  I’m guessing that’s a specific software.

  To link data into AE, first we need to know what kind of data and how its presented.

  Alright, thanks. Would it be possible to do it via a .csv-file?

  Yes! AE’s latest versions have had some really neat data-driven graphics tools added to them. More info here: https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/using/data-driven-animations.html
