The second half of the course moves into advanced motion techniques, including an introduction to 3D motion design. You’ll learn to create simple 3D objects, apply basic movements, and combine 2D and 3D elements effectively. The focus then shifts to creating motion content for brands—understanding storytelling, visual rhythm, and professional presentation.
