Key Insights
- Keyframes define specific moments in time for property changes.
- At least two keyframes are needed for effective animation.
- Use keyboard shortcuts J and K to navigate keyframes.
- Spatial interpolation refers to changes in X and Y positions.
- Bezier interpolation allows for smoother, curved motion paths.
- Continuous bezier handles connect incoming and outgoing motion.
- Keyframe properties include position, scale, rotation, and opacity.
- The graph editor provides visual control over keyframe interpolation.
- Keyframes can be added or deleted using the keyframe navigator.
