- Well hello everybody, I'm Nathaniel Dodson

where today we're gonna take a look at five

that are perfect if you're just getting started

You're gonna learn a whole lot about animation here.

well make sure you subscribe to my channel

so you never miss any future video editing,

After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, you name it, tutorials,

If you're creating a new composition to follow along,

You can also go to composition, composition settings,

of an already existing composition in there.

I also have my background color set to the hex code 333333.

I also added this little image to the background,

I set its opacity to 5%, locked the background down

so it doesn't move or I don't accidentally adjust it.

just if you're looking at it and you see it there,

and type out the words, or the number and the word,

"5 easy", and over in the character panel,

I'm going to choose Bebas Bold as my font.

to center this text to my current composition.

I'm gonna type out the word "animations".

this is a separate piece of text of course,

but this time, the text is gonna be a size of 195 pixels.

And again, I'm gonna align this to the middle

And I'm gonna drag it below my first piece of text

just as much spacing as you think is right,

I'm gonna add a little bit here as I see fit.

Now once again, I'm gonna add even more text

by typing in, this time, "in After Effects",

I'm gonna change the size here to 113 pixels.

Again, I'll align this to the center of my composition

just to give a little space here as well,

so just make sure all this text is spaced out nicely.

I can do that by holding down the shift key.

And here up in the top bar, I'm gonna chose

and just make sure I hit the slash in there.

I'm gonna add a 25 pixel white stroke to this shape,

so you can select stroke, make sure it's filled

with solid white, then choose to make sure it's 25 pixels.

and we'll get the horizontal and vertical centers

or adjust your text to make sure your text

is perfectly in the middle of this ellipse.

you may need to first lock the ellipse layer

so you don't select it, because technically

And then just shift click the three pieces of text,

and you can nudge them up or down like I said,

just to make sure they get really into the center

I'm gonna select the largest piece of text,

That's gonna bring up my scaling options.

Then I'll click on that little stopwatch icon right there,

They're the little stopping points in our animation.

it's gonna make the text disappear, don't worry.

And then we're gonna move out a little bit,

and when I say move out, I'm just dragging my playhead
