After Effects Workshop

Colour Edit from the After Effects Workshop

During the After Effects workshop I managed to create a short 10 seconds clip of me playing around with colour and music. First of all, I started by setting up the document, which I was quite capable of doing as I have used this before. Picking a song choice was a very important step for the work I had to produce. I went with a sound that had a lot of high beats within the 10 second time scale. The reason I chose one with a good amount of high beats was because I had to put a different colour on each beat. So when the beat went it would change colour as you can see in the clip. I was quite good at making it match up and I think that I did this very well. Next I decided to add some text into this to experiment with After Effects more. So on the colour I put the name of the colour to show that I can add text into my work. Overall I am very happy with my outcome of this as it has helped to gain a bit more knowledge on how to use this software.
