Learn to create professional film and television special effects in After Effects through a comprehensive course covering essential techniques from basic to advanced. Master track masks and layer modes for split-shot synthesis, explore camera movement techniques with vector layers and perspective spaces, and develop skills in 3D lighting and space construction. Practice keying and tracking methods, gain proficiency in expressions (Time, Index, Random, Wiggle), and create simulation effects like cracked text and peeling fonts. Apply these skills through practical case studies featuring Chinese cultural elements like the Tongliang Dragon Culture, Xiushan Flower Lanterns, and Chongqing Folk Art, culminating in a final examination to demonstrate mastery of the covered techniques.
