Making elements follow specific paths is classic After Effects, but has historically been ... kinda hard! Now it's easier than ever with recently-updated null commands! Come hang with @ecabrams & I on @adobelive for #motiondesignhotline to dig into this and other techniques, and send us any questions you'd like us to help demystify! Live Wed Noon ET / 9a PT on Behance & Youtube

This week, #motiondesignhotline takes on "Corporate Memphis." This ubiquitous style dominated for years, bringing a friendly face to big tech and an easily-scalable look to biz of all sizes. This adorable ad for Plantr helps you choose between the trope-iest of plants in a smart pot that definitely isn't* constantly recording everything you do! @ecabrams & I will break down this style and tackle tips for creating your own elements using After Effects and Illustrator - because we know they're still asking for it. 🤷‍♂️ Join us on @adobelive Wed 2/26 at Noon ET / 9a PT, and bring us your questions in the chat! behance.net/adobelive or YT link coming soon. #aftereffects #adobeillustrator #animation #motiondesign #motiongraphics

This week on #MotionDesignHotline, @ecabrams &I are doing a salute to one of the OGs of motion design, title designer Saul Bass (and of course, his wife Elaine)! We'll be talking through style and concepts, as well as recreating aspects of a few iconic opening titles in After Effects. Come hang with us on #AdobeLive and share your thoughts and questions in the chat!

This week on the Motion Design Hotline @kylasaurus_rex and I are joined by special guest @jess_thehybridcreative for our holiday special. And as usually happens when we gather around for the winter time harvest time… we FIGHT! That’s right, we’re taking on the classic reel format “Choose Your Fighter” and this time… it’s festive. We combined our creative powers like a potluck dinner to bring you characters created in Neo, overlay graphics and looping retro style video animation. Tune in on @adobelive at 10 PT on YouTube: /watch?v=6QhDbfb83EQ

This week on the motion design hotline @kylasaurus_rex and I are say phooey to reality and fweee! To FUI. On @adobelive we’ll be showing some retro computing concepts that will have you nostalgic for a time that hasn’t happened yet. It’s a Christmas after all? Watch on YouTube or catch the replay in our archive on motiondesignhotline.com #motiondesignhotline #animation #aftereffects

If motion design edu-tainment existed around the time @ecabrams & I were born, it would look something like... This week on #MotionDesignHotline, we're booting up some retro-futuristic FUI (fictional user interfaces) in After Effects. Think early 80's (Alien, Blade Runner) or modern throwback-styled properties like Loki or Fallout. Join us on @adobelive and send us your questions in the chat!
