This was such a helpful video because whenever I watched an AE tutorial that required the graph editor it never explained whether to use the speed or value graph. One question though, if you arent animating a graphic and instead a video, would there be handles, because there isnt any actual cardinal movement of the clip? (After writing this I realized im talking about time remapping.. :P)

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

[@vishalsp4396]

What is mean by influence, in the keyframe velocity box

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

Vishal, adjusting the Bezier/influence handles changes the degree of the motion or velocity. Moving an influence handle away from a keyframe will shape a path with a more gradual incline and therefore a gentler slow in / slow out. The 70% for example is just a number that I like to use which means you can go higher or lower depending on the motion you are after. Hope that helps and thank you for your feedback! 😀

[@mariafernandaguerreroguerr8794]

How do you select which curve to animate? Hello,Elias, I have a question, depending on what you select the curve that you animate, since sometimes you use the "value" or sometimes you use the "speed", with what criteria do you know which one to move? Thank you very much. :)

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

Maria, the most used one is the Speed Graph because it's related to speed but if you want to change Position values for example then switch to the Value graph because you are charging values rather than speed. Does this make sense? 👋

When I set up the motion path over 60 seconds, motion is really slow. No where near as quick as yours?

1 minute motion path is going to be very slow, also at the distance between those individual paths, most likely quite a bit and that makes it slow. Hope this helps. 😀 👋

I am confused with valued graph and speed? it is similar?

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

Speed Graph measures speed or velocity over time and you can change the speed of animation between keyframes using its Speed Graph as I demonstrate in the first part. The value graph shows changes in a property's value and measures the value over time such as the Rotation property, or the Opacity property. Hope this helps, thank you! 😀

[@Uyry-m8m]

@@EliasSarantopoulos thank you much.

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

@@Uyry-m8m Try to follow the tutorial, see by changing the distance between keyframes how the speed gets slower to go to the next keyframe. That is on the Speed graph. The value graph, you can also drag and change the values of Position and others. 😀

[@veruzzzz]

Graph editor in AE seems like a rocket science gone mad compared to the excellent one in Blender. I think I'll never understand it properly.

[@EliasSarantopoulos]

All you mostly do inside the Graph Editor is changing keyframe behavior, for example, from Linear which has constant velocity to Easy Ease which slowly accelerates and slowly deselarate. The Graph Editor helps us with to change those values. Hope this helps M Z. 😀 👋

[@veruzzzz]

@@EliasSarantopoulos I completely understand all of these basic principles but those weird spikes, arches and keyframes detached from each other in the Speed graph are just a headache for me :D For example in Blender, the curve (path) and speed have two independent controls whereas in AE both speed and a path have their keyframes clumped in one graph. I can manage to work in 2D space just fine but once I have 3D space and three axes, controlling the path and a speed of an object along this path is super hard for me to understand in AE.
