---------------------------------------
The graph editor is the single most important tool you can use as an animator in After Effects, and it isn’t as difficult to understand and use as you think it is. Easy ease only takes you so far. I’m going to break down exactly how the speed and value graphs work in After Effects so you can stop being afraid to click that button and start taking control of how your layers actually move.

What I like about your tutorials is that you always focus on being holistic in your explanations, and you cover entire subjects instead of just throwing tips and tricks here and there. Well done Jake 👍

Can you explain how surfshark VPN has improved your motion graphics?

I'm sure it's from the ability to allow scripts to access the internet from one of thousands of private servers around the globe.

I came to AE as a character animator from Maya. The Maya graph editor makes complete sense and to this day I still can't figure out wtf is going on with Adobe's choices in AE. Thank you so much for this video that helps clear some things up!

@martinbajsic4836 Жыл бұрын

Huge thanks man! 7 years of motion design and I’ve never understood the value graph as clear as now. Oh, and you guessed it right: having things bounce around and do complex motions with the speed graph only is a bloody sport, to say the least :D

@danielterrazas Жыл бұрын

Coming from the 3D world, I always prefer the Value Graph because it is just second nature and makes much more sense to me. However, I believe a speed graph is a great tool to focus on the animation's velocity without thinking about all the other parameters. I'll try to use it more after watching this tutorial. Thank for that Jake. My two wishes would be that the Value Graph in AE would be more powerful, like it is in any 3D software (AE's is washed out version of it), and that all 3D apps would have some kind of Speed Graph; that would make life much easier.

I mean you’ve been one of the best tutorialists on KZfaq-not just in the motion design/ae space, but just in general-for a while now, however this might be my favorite video of yours yet. As someone who’s been working with ae for over a decade, and was for a good chunk of that time scared of the graph editor and especially the speed editor, this video is a revelation. you’ve clarified a couple of details here that have been driving me mad forever, and illuminated the “whys” on which to use and when. Just a champion of a channel, thank you so much

SERIOUSLY?! I literally said that word out loud in my office while watching this and I haven't even gotten to the good part. I just can't believe you threw in the fact that there's a J and K shortcut for moving between keyframes... After years of AE I feel like a complete n00b. Thanks for, incredibly useful (and full of important, fundamental Easter eggs) tuts!

@2424rocket Жыл бұрын

You are a breath of fresh air. I’ve seen lots of tutorials and most of them suck, to say the least. Anybody who needs to understand the graph editor this is about as good a tutorial as I’ve ever seen. Your explanation is clear and concise, there’s no rock music in the background, you’re not making jokes, it is a near perfect tutorial. First time I’ve ever discovered you… I need to see more from you.

@luizhoya5846 Ай бұрын

I just had a realization and because of this realization, I regret not listening to my calculus teacher about sine waves. In the speed graph, the farther you are to the base linear line, the faster the rate of change over time. The more near the graph is to the linear line, the slower it becomes. Same with the value graph, but instead of the linear line as the base, the keyframes becomes the focal base. The farther the curve line is to the y-position of the keyframes, the less frames it produces and is less packed, more separated. --- the nearer the curve line is to the y-position of the keyframes, the more frames it produces and the more packed it becomes.

Excellent explanation. Exactly what I was looking for. I am gonna subscribe and like. Btw for the part that why we can not edit position in value graph and we have to separate them. Its because there are two types of properties for Position,Scale, Rotation and Opacity. Position and scale are biaxial because they have two axis X and Y whereas opacity and Rotation are single axial. To edit the values of biaxial e.g. position and scale, we have to separate them so we could work on them separately in value graph.

Welcome to the best rabbit hole ever. It won’t be long before you’ll feel like your day isn’t complete until you’ve heard the intro music at least once. Jake has perfected The KZfaq Tutorial but I can’t, for the life of me, pinpoint what makes them so great. I suppose it simply comes down to so many things being done so well (e.g. pace, lighting, sound, delivery, etc)

AE has needed to add a third graph for a while now and one that is far more intuitive to creative folks, the current ones just give me reminder shivers from my algebra/Trigonometry/logarithmic days at school
