Did you know you can animate in Fusion without keyframes?
That’s right! There are modifiers that let you manipulate your animations dynamically so that your comps respond to the length of the clip or any number of other inputs.
This is great for transitions or effects that you plan on re-using or saving as a preset.
It works across resolutions and frame rates, which really frees you from manual keyframes.
In this video from Sword & Shield Studio, you’ll learn:
- How to add the anim curves modifier
- Finding modifiers in the inspector
- Overview of the options
- Seeing the effects it the timeline
Pretty cool, right?
