3h 31m14 lectures2 sections
What you'll learn
- Understand the introduction to Newton
- Master the Newton engine interface
- Analyze basic types of bodies
- Understand physical properties of bodies
- Apply motion to a series of connected bodies
- Design fluid simulation and buoyancy
About this course
This course takes you on a practical journey to master physics animation in After Effects using the Newton plugin. You will learn how to transform static elements into dynamic bodies that interact with gravity, collisions, and physical joints realistically. We start with understanding the interface, types of bodies, and basic properties, then move on to practical applications like connected chains, buoyancy and fluid simulation, and building a complete mechanical scene that mimics motor movement.
Expected outcomes
- Ability to create realistic physics animation instead of traditional manual animation.
- Design dynamic scenes based on real physics laws.
- Implement interconnected chains and bodies that move automatically according to simulation.
- Simulate buoyancy and fluids within a professional environment.
- Build complete mechanical systems like motors or moving parts.
- Elevate your motion graphics work to an advanced professional level.
