Applied Animation - National Geographic - Transition


This is the transition that I have created using the composition with computers, I imported the composition into after affects as a psd file and by doing that I was able to key frame each individual component of the composition to make a smooth transition into the next sequence of the animation - a button being pressed.
In order to bring in the next sequence smoothly I keyframed what would be the background of the next sequence to move down in synchronous with the background of the previous composition. I also created the button using shape layers in after affects so that I was able to keyframe each component that made up the image of the button in time with the background that the button would be in front.
To add to the continuity of the animation I used the background of the first composition to act as the surface that the button would be placed upon.
I also added a small 'shimmer' in the white area of the button so that it gives the feeling that in the animation there is a touch of perpetual motion.
