Create a neat EXPLAINER VIDEO using only the BASIC parameters + trim paths effect (Ai / Ae tutorial)

Explainer video tutorial / after effects tutorial / illustrator tutorial / trim paths / how to make explainer video / 2d explainer video
Hey guys, today we're going to create a neat and clean scene that is heavily inspired by one of my recent explainer videos. We'll only be using the very basic parameters, a trim path effect and a wiggle expression in Atfer Effects. You can use this simple technique for an entire explainer video!

This is one of my favorite videos of yours. I use trim paths all the time but I don't really know what I'm doing, I just fiddle till it looks right. Thanks for the offset tip and the detailed instructions.

[@kunalasher2485]

Very insightful video. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge :)

[@exeasy]

thanks! I'm really glad it was helpful!

[@garvit24]

Great! Likewise. Somewhat i resonate the ways you used to do these animations, the way you prepare the files in illustrator. I saw how you followed one of the Disney’s 14 principles of animation by scaling to 115 and dropping to 100. I learnt the way you animated offset and what wiggle does to small objects to bring detail in movements! Impressed! Following you and looking at all your videos to see if I can learn more! Keep doing the good work! Love the effort! ❤

[@garvit24]

Another thing, I believe you set your illustrator artboard to 1920X1080. And while you do that what's the size of the grid that you're using? How big are these squares (in px)?

[@exeasy]

thank you :) I'm glad these videos are helpful!

[@exeasy]

I usually don't pay any attention to the initial size, just have to make sure the grid is square, for instance 100 x 100, then I just select the whole thing and scale it up/down how I need

[@exeasy]

ah, yeah, and the amount of horizontal and vertical dividers should be equal too, say 10 and 10 :)

[@garvit24]

@@exeasy aah Ok! Another question that's bugging me off late. And i know there might not be a straight answer. But do you know any quick way to render a transparent gif from AE. The ways I know are tedious- Eg rendering a png seq and importing in PS then exporting using legacy save as menu.

[@mooohacando]

your style is very unique. I hope your videos get the views soon ❤

[@exeasy]

Thank you so much!! hope so too :))

[@waynesko9202]

Really like your tutorials. And I did my homework after this video, which looks great. It would be even greater if some of your actions can be a little bit slower for beginners to follow along. Thank you!

[@exeasy]

thank you for your suggestion! and I'm glad the video helped :)

Thank you😍

maybe you should use Overlord - Battle Axe

[@zaynqureshi56]

nice vedio , we are creating each sequence separately ,,, and then adding them to premier pro to join them how can i animate whole vedio in one after effect file and the camera moves to those direction as the animation goes ,,, i am so confused how to do that ,,,,

[@exeasy]

You just create another precomp in AE with all the scenes inside. But if rendering out each scene and editing them later in PR works for you, why changing anything? 🙃

@@exeasy when i see an explaners there animation feels they are connected in one sequence only the position changes
