Key Insights
- Keyframes define moments in time for property changes.
- At least two keyframes are needed for animation.
- Use the playhead to determine when effects start.
- Keyframe properties like position, rotation, and scale simultaneously.
- Spatial interpolation refers to changes in X and Y.
- Bezier curves allow for non-linear motion paths.
- Keyboard shortcuts J and K navigate between keyframes.
- The graph editor helps visualize keyframe interpolation.
- Continuous Bezier connects handles for smooth transitions.
- Non-continuous Bezier allows independent handle adjustments.
