Motion Design Hotline: Ae Tricks and Treats with Evan Abrams & Kyle Hamrick

Evan Abrams and Kyle Hamrick spice up the spooky season with a little competitive pumpkin carving. Our hosts will dive into divergent techniques to create autumnal animations. Evan will be making an emoji-style flat character that still has depth. He’ll make use of pre-comps and warp effects to animate a face once and use it as shadows, highlights, and holes. Kyle has opted for a more realistic approach compositing a more grounded gourd. Which is best? Let us know in the chat!
