In this tutorial, you will learn how:

Once you’ve downloaded the assets provided with this tutorial, you can either begin to populate your own After Effects project or pick one of the shots to use as a base and start remixing.

In this video, you’ll see how easy it is to download an image from Adobe Stock to use as a background for your scene. When you find an image you like, click the cloud icon to save it to your preferred library. To import it into your project, right-click the thumbnail in the Libraries panel and chose Import. Images and footage are watermarked prior to purchase.

Inside the folder supplied with this tutorial you will find a subfolder titled 3D PROJECTS. The OFFF SEGMENTS LOWPOLY file contains the geometric OFFF logo that we used to create the movie title.

In this video, you’ll see one way to approach your remix. Take a segment of this geometry and manipulate it using the MoGraph module in Cinema 4D Lite, included with After Effects. Add a light source to the scene and then add some materials to your model. After rendering it, pull your newly generated asset into After Effects and composite it over your stock image.

In this video, you’ll see how easily you can link your Premiere Pro clips and After Effects compositions using Dynamic Link — making use of the editing capabilities of Premiere Pro while developing your motion graphics sequence and making use of the effects and presets in After Effects.

For example, you can add animated typography over the top of your footage, while still leaving flexibility to move the element around in the timeline.

In this video, you’ll learn how to use Media Encoder to export your After Effects and Premiere Pro projects.
