Yo, yo Hi there. I'm glad to see you again. before we're going to dive into the world of text and transitions, I like to tell you about the tiny icon inside the After Effects interface. It looks like that is called two's greed and guide options. If I click on it, we will see such a list. There are tools for good and safe location or a position of objects in the picture.
I'm going to talk about two of them that I use most of all, first up, title action save, I do think that you have used it. If I click on it, you will see such a frame. I use it mostly to catch the center of the composition. It is marked here by cross. So here are these marks that help to navigate and find the center of the composition again, this frame that has extreme position indicates the borders that shouldn't be crossed by the composition especially Maine arbitrary It's like a exclusion zone. It is made in cases of seating different scales of TV.
For example, if you gave a clip for a TV position, this one could be eaten by different modes of a screen. After you say these, no, it is already working part. But I would recommend you to place important objects inside the main zone. This lines are just supportive. They help to navigate and qwop if you will need it in future, for example, to crop like a four by three or just a square. So you can around by these lines and see where the main action is going on.
For beginners, this spring tip has maximum help. Please work inside this zone with manual Especially, and if we're talking about text, it needs air space as much as it can. And these two frames zone will make these additional space and make the composition visually better. This frame is able to be tuned by but I have never done it. For me it's good enough. Let's turn to the top rulers, when it turned on, rulers will appear aside.
It is a very useful stuff. For example, if I make a text like text and after you make another text aside, I said that first one and you should put it one line or maybe the line the text to the left or right. Of course you can use the brain and place it over there but it is not comfortable to use. These markers. If I pull this ruler, these violet lines will appear. If I grab and place a layer nearby it glues to these lines.
So it is very easy to navigate and use it and also to the objects one like another. You can add lines as many as you like. And of course, they will not be visible and you can easily push them out of the rulers. So I think that's all what I would like to say. So use the frame zone. Don't forget that the most important zone is inside this frame.
So don't do like that. And even that way, maybe just as a last resort, sought, try to place everything inside the zone.
