After Effects Apprentice Free Video: Spotting Dialog
...including creating layer markers with duration indicators.
By Chris and Trish Meyer | December 14, 2012
As we mentioned recently, we've been updating our After Effects Apprentice video courses to reflect changes in the third edition of the book. One shortcoming of previous editions of the book that we corrected with this version is to give audio better coverage, including a new exercise on mixing music and dialog together. In this movie, we demonstrate spotting individual phrases in dialog that we might want to highlight or base our animation around, and mark them including noting their duration (in contrast to spotting music, where we tend to mark just percussive instances in time).
You can view the entire course AEA06: Type and Music on the lynda.com website.
