I know about keyframes,
I use them on adobe flash cs4 pro,
But i dont know how to add them on after effects,
Anyone know, Obv u do but maybe you could help me
AE is not like Flash where you set one keyframe for everything; in After Effects you set keyframes for each parameter. It's much better and easier to edit this way.
Next to (almost) every element in the effects panel and the timeline there is a little stopwatch. Click that stopwatch and it'll turn keyframing on for that parameter and set a keyframe for that parameter.
To learn about it for free check out this article on Adobe's website.
Here's a tutorial that will walk you through some of the basics. I know it's for an older version, but almost everything is the same as far as basics like keyframing.
