How to Make an Animated Image Wall in Motion 5

Published November 4, 2013

Are you ready for a fun Motion technique?

This effect is an example of an animated image wall.

Someone showed me an effect similar to this and asked if it was possible to create it in Motion 5. After experimenting a bit, I was able to do it, and here is the final result (along with the workflow I used).

In the video, you'll notice I dig into a few different techniques and concepts:


  • An example of how to use a replicator in Motion 5

  • How to use an image sequence for the source material

  • How to customize an animation over the replicator's pattern

I hope you find the video helpful!

Three Camera Flyover Effect in Motion 5

Published September 19, 2013

When you add a still photo to a video, you can spice it up. It doesn't need to just sit there.

In fact, you have plenty of options for adding visual interest.

This tutorial demonstrates something I call the "three camera flyover effect". It's a powerful effect that adds a lot of energy to the image.

I show the effect in Motion 5, and along the way I discuss things such as:


  • Using several cameras with different angles

  • Adjusting the movement of the animation

  • Different types of cameras in Motion and how they behave

There's a lot of fun information in this video. I hope you find it helpful!

And by the way, there are plenty of videos like this one in the membership library.
