The motion in the Google IO videos really reminds me of the motion design in some of the better Flash stuff from 5-10 years ago. Think most designers who have been in the game for a while already have pretty good motion design chops.
The tooling these days is kind of lacking since Flash got killed though - you end up doing things twice, first design in AE, then coding it up.
- milesokeefe 12y agoHopefully Edge Animate will become on par with AE and it'll be a one step process.
- dharma1 12y agoyeah that'll work for html5 but not for native stuff
- milesokeefe 12y agoMy bad, forgot this was focusing on native stuff. Edge would be useful if Firefox OS ever picks up though.
- Cookingboy 12y agoThat can be done by having some sort of bridging tool. At Apple I hear there used to be an in-house tool that takes AfterEffect raw output and convert it into full transformation matrices (which covers rotation, translation and scale, which in turn covers everything within an animation) that can be directly used by CoreAnimation. I'm actually surprised AE still doesn't have a tool that can export full transformation matrices on a frame-by-frame basis.
- chriskelley 12y agoAE has a pretty powerful javascript-based scripting language that can write exporters like this very easily. I regularly write exporters for passing timing/transform matrices back and forth within our 2D/3D pipeline.
