Animated poster creation: From print to Motion

x From print to Motion, learn to make Animated posters

“Congratulations! You have reached the end of this course. I hope you're leaving with eager anticipation to animate your own posters. I've really enjoyed teaching you about this art. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the concept you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and create a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way. This will help me understand your creative process and guide you better if you need advice. After all, I'll be in the forum to answer any questions or doubts you might have. Here are the main steps to follow: The Design Concept Choose the project you want to create. It can be fictional or real. The Mood Board Now, create a mood board for the project. This is where you can add all the relevant information (images, patterns, texts, etc.). The Sketch Create sketches based on your mood board and select the relevant one(s). Designing the Poster Design the composition and poster elements based on your sketch and create the animation.

Exporting the Poster Use Adobe Illustrator and After Effects to create the poster for print and for the web. And that's all! I can’t wait to see the project you come up with, so don’t forget to share it in the forum. You can do so by clicking on "Create your project". I'll be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I'll try getting back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others’ work, and interact with the community! See you there.”
