Portrait Animation using After Effects

Tips:

  • Determine aspect ratio before creating Photoshop document and After Effects composition
  • Depending the camera, work with a format that is more flexible to work with various software
  • Expand the timeline height to get a better visual of the timings and key frames
  • Constantly re-play the animation to spot inconsistencies and unwanted effects/timings
  • Keyframes, Keyframes, Keyframes! : You can move/delete/adjust them in groups
  • Render in a different formats/sizes as these files can be too large sometimes
