Shape animationIn this lesson the objective was to create an animation that appeared to have constant movement a (circle).

To begin we had to create a new composition and change the setting of the Adobe onto composition. In this picture I created my first circle and changes the appearance of it so that it looked like it was separated into separate lines, this means that when the shape beings to move it will look more exaggerated.

In this image I created multiple circles three by including the replication effect onto my animation.

In order to create the illusion that my shape is moving I would use the position effect. In the beginning of my time scale I would include a (time) point when my circle had its complete shape. And after a couple of seconds I would change the scale so that only half of my shape was visible and include another scale. Repeated the first step. When played continually it appeared as if the shape was moving around the inner circle, as slowly more and more of it would become invisible.

I changed the colour of both my shapes to red when contrasted with the black background this makes the shapes the main attraction. The image below is a scene from my animations final piece.

In this lesson I learned how to made shapes appear as if they were moving. This will be useful for future projects because if I want to create an animation and make it appear more interesting I could make the shapes have movement.
