Key Insights
- Keyframes require at least two points to function.
- Use the playhead to determine when changes occur.
- Clicking the stopwatch enables keyframing but doesn't add a keyframe.
- Keyboard shortcuts J and K navigate between keyframes.
- Spatial interpolation refers to changes in X and Y positions.
- Bezier interpolation allows for curved motion paths.
- Continuous bezier connects incoming and outgoing handles.
- Non-continuous bezier separates the handles for unique motion.
- Keyframe properties like scale and opacity simultaneously.
- Utilize the 'end' property in effects to create animations.
