Hi everyone, today we are going to repeat the animation from Iman Ghazi's video. The project will be available at the link in the description, so feel free to download it and watch the video how everything works. So, first we need to generate the background of our video. The easiest tool in my opinion would be Leonardo AI. Here in the image generation tab we will select the AnimPastel dream model and enter a query for example like this and click generate. Now here's a problem I almost forgot to
adjust our aspect ratio so for the best cinematic feel we are going to need a 16 by 9 ratio. Let's make that change. And once we have downloaded everything we need it's time to dive into After Effects. Here we will start a new project and create a new composition. This is just the beginning. We import our images and now it is time to focus on the text block. First let's create a shape layer and remove its fill while make more thick white stroke. Then create a basic text layer and choose an appro
priate font. Music. Next up, we are going to ensure our text and rectangle fits neatly in the new text composition, saving us space and making future work much more convenient. Moving on, let's add animation by creating another rectangle. We make it filled with black solid color and remove stroke. stroke. We animate shape layers with scale parameter from 0 to 100 on the X axis and don't forget to unlink it here. But how do we animate text appearing like this? By changing the viewing mode here wi
th the toggle selection modes button and setting up a track matte with our newly created rectangle we get this incredible animation effect. Keyframes are next on our list. Right clicking on them, we will access the keyframe assistant and select Easy Ease keyframe. This little trick smoothens our animation and makes it flow naturally. Now it is time to focus on our main composition, so duplicate text layers, drag them randomly from the beginning of the timeline and bring everything to the 3D by c
licking on this tiny cube button. Now we should add depth and dimension. The next tool which is one click parallax free plugin will help us with this. Choose the amount of parallax and click this button. Music. And camera work is up next. We will create several keyframes for position, for aperture, z rotation and focus distance as well and adjust them sequentially to get the perfect shot after this it is all just about polishing it so let's add Jasmine layer because it is time to add some visual
seasoning to this composition we have many options here like adding grain and turbulent noise sometimes previous effects can be distracting when setting up new ones a simple click on the FX button can temporarily disable them, allowing for a clearer setup process. Continuing with our effect setup, we'll animate each one with evolution parameter, adding a dynamic feel to our composition. Music. Position. And don't forget to vignette and posterize time effect. This reduces the frame rate and addi
ng a uniquely antsy touch to our animation. And finally let's add some glow to our text with layer styles. Music. And before we wrap up, we'll add curves to increase contrast and do a test render. If something doesn't feel right, like the text rotation or the speed of the animation, we can always tweak it. Music. And there you have it. So feel free to use the project files and make variations on your own. And if you liked it, subscribe or follow would be nice.
