Motion Graphics: Create an Animated Poster

To start the course, meet your teachers Nassim and Méric, and find out more about their respective professional backgrounds. They talk about studios that have inspired their everyday work and some of the standout projects they have done over the years.

Get straight into the topic of visual identity, the real trademark of the studio. Learn to respond to a brief from a specific case study: the release of an EP by rapper and musician Louisnumberz. Then create a mood board to help you develop a written concept.

Time to design your poster! After a few practical exercises, start experimenting with different combinations of color, typography, and composition to come up with the best graphics solution. Moving on, create the poster in 2D before animating it in After Effects by playing around with effects and creating an animation loop. Export your creations using two different techniques.

Take your poster one step further by incorporating some new 3D effects, then top it all off by learning to publish your work on social media.
