4/11/16 - After Effects Learning (Part 10) (Motion Paths)

Very quick chapter.  Introduced motion paths, adjusting keyframes, interpolation, pen tool, etc.  All stuff I've very familiar with.  What I didn't know about was a cool little option called "Auto-Orient".  I'm more prone to manual animation, but this could come in handy some day.  I also learned about the "Motion Sketch" option.  I come from a background in Apple's Motion, so this is very reminiscent of hitting the "record" button there.  I also learned that you can actually create a more fine-tuned motion path in a separate program like Illustrator, and then paste that into AE to automatically create a motion path.  I'm personally more familiar with Photoshop than Illustrator, so I'm curious to see if the pen tool it has (which I typically use for the brush stroke option) will work for this as well.
