so welcome to this video tutorial on how
to use motion shapes template from the
aim trailers explainer video toolkit
version 2 for Adobe After Effects okay
so after we open the project we find
these 93 compositions all complete with
animation of motion shapes
so you ready let's check it out so as
you can see there is only the color
control layer that we need to take care
of and this is where you can pick the
color of your choice to change the color
of the shape so let's go ahead and
select it then we go over to effect
controls panel to change the color and
it's as simple as that as you can see
the lines color has changed so now let's
take a look at how we can actually use
these
for example we had composition in our
case we only have a text layer so plain
text looks rather boring but we can make
it a little bit more dynamic with the
help of motion shapes
let's simply drag the chosen one to the
composition and see what happens I like
it looks kind of cool doesn't it
so as I've shown you before we can
change the color of the shape to match
this style that we want specifically for
this composition you can also change the
speed of the motion shape and to change
the speed you simply highlight the layer
and then you right click with your mouse
button then you pick time stretch from
the time menu a dialog box will pop up
where you then need to set the new value
of the length keeping in mind that the
entire timeline is 100% so for example
if you want to increase the speed two
times or you want to double the speed
you need to set the value to 50%
once you do that you can see that the
timeline of our shape has now been haft
and the shape is now playing at two
times the speed of course you can also
change the size of position to suit your
composition best
you can always add unlimited number of
motion shapes to one composition and
then set them up afterwards
