START TUTORIAL
hello I am Sbk Edits official and today I'll be showing you how to create this okay so that's a pretty cool logo introduction animation and you'll learn how to do that today so before we get started and you don't feel like following this tutorial and just want to edit this template to make it your own with your own text and your own logo that's also possible and very easy to do and you can just buy this template on our website for a small fee and in return you will get this project file where you should just change the text change the logo a video will be added to that sale as well so you get a tutorial on how to edit that file um so if you feel like doing that go ahead and do that that also supports our channel so I have 40 people that do want to follow this tutorial let's get started.
FULL HD IMAGES AND VIDEO
so the first thing I did is created any composition of Full HD ten seconds long seems alright and click OK and I created a new solid background layer so make it black and background for BG okay and then I created a new solid again and I created a white Sol at this time and I rename this to circle animation there we go then what I did is I chose the ellipse tool here and with Shift + ctrl I dragged a circle like this so the only thing that I did was make sure that I was in the center side just ended death so just get into into the center of your composition like this and then click hold ctrl and shift and drag one out like so you can also change the mask to none it's not that important but for now then go to effects and presets go and find a stroke that's under generate stroke drag that stroke onto our solid and then you will see that it automatically detects the mask that is applied to the solid to the mask one and then you can just change the paint style to on transparent and there we go we have our if you're going to increase the brush size you're going to see your circle.
OFFSETS FOR KEYFRAME
so I'm going to change my resolution to fool for now so you can see easily what we're talking about and then it's just a yeah it's a matter of playing with these two points here the start and end point so let's do that and go to the end point and just put that to zero or what we can do is put the start stop and they start but do 100 so now we have a starting end of 100% move ahead like one second and change the start to zero so now it's going to make an animation like this to complete a circle so press U on the keyboard to reveal these keyframes and then you will see here at the end make the end at 0% so now if we're going to see the animation we are actually not going to see anything because the end point is finishing as fast as the start point is starting so if that doesn't make any sense if you're going to select these two keyframes and you're going to offset them a bit you're going to get like a half a circle like.
SMALLER ROTATED
so that's pretty cool that's what we were looking for and once you have done that select all the keyframes Jen right click on this keyframe keyframe assistant easy ease and now you're going to start slowly and end slowly again so now we have this animation and now it's just a matter of duplicating them and pressing em on keyboard on the mask double clicking on that mask and holding ctrl and shift and make it smaller and then see the animation for yourself and then also play like with the end for example you can make it like this here okay duplicate that one mask tool double click on the mask tool make it smaller and you can actually actually also rotate the mask you LIF you want to so maybe maybe position one here okay and then also make like the brush size smaller duplicate it again double click on the mask make it smaller rotate it right over here maybe make it bigger there.
SELECT A NEW COMPOSITION
we go now we have an animation just like this here so we can add one more here so duplicate that one will make it so also smaller here and you can fill up with as many circles that you want and change yeah everything that you want and you have to make it look cool so it's completely up to you I'm just showing you the example and now it's up to you to make something original with it and so we have this okay so once you have done that it can create a new composition actually new composition here and make like a thousand by a thousand so it's a nice square and rename it to logo here I'm going to make a circular shape tool like so press V on the keyboard click on the shape and Center this okay go to the projects and then import the logo here make your logo a little bit larger and then just right click on the shape layer here to track math you can also switch between the modes here and choose alpha invert it math and now if you're going to enable the transparent mode here.
IMPORT LOGO
you're going to see that our logo is transparent and that's what we were searching for so and go back to the intro comp and import the logo so actually I'm going to rename this to logo v2 because I'm actually making this in the same composition that I made the preview end so level b2 there we go well in the entry comp place it over here and now we have our logo so seems alright and we have the animation going okay so make it a little bit smaller like 60% okay okay so create a keyframe for the scale press R on the keyboard and create a keyframe for the rotation and then press U on the keyboard to reveal these two keyframes then move these two keyframes like one second and time and then right here we're going to have rotated a little bit like so and make it like zero percent in scale so now we have an animation like that okay.
BOUNCY
so we can actually move these two keyframes closer together so the animation is faster okay so that looks pretty cool once you have done that we have to do something with code but I'm going to paste the code in the description so you can just copy and paste it and so I'll click on the stopwatch of the scale and then paste the code that you see in the description and if we're going to drag this out you're going to see a bunch of code but the only code you have to care about our D Street top code here so the amplitude the frequency and the DK so um yeah the amplitude is how much it's going to affect it the frequency is how fast and dks planets should stop so if we're going to see these this animation it's going to make it clear so the scale actually bounces a bit as you can see very very subtle that actually it makes it look very cool so I'll click on the rotation as well and paste the same code now we have some bouncy so that's pretty cool okay.
RAMP GRADIENT
so now I'm going to choose the background here and go to and generate ramp gradient ramp okay change this to a black color and change the start color to nice like a nice dark color here and make it a radial ramp actually the color should be a different so that should be black and this should be dark blue like so okay um there we go maybe even darker blue and there we go you can also change the color um per channel to sixteen so and standard it's on eight if you're going to change it to sixteen you're going to get rid of the yeah it Rams here's if we're going to play with the RAM scatter going to help a bit and then what you can do as well is go to noise and grain and add some noise change that to one percent and you're going to see that all ramp is going to disappear and now we have a smooth transition that's a small neat trick but if you're going to change that to eight bits per channel you're going to see the banding here.
