Ep 27 – Null Objects and Parenting in After Effects

Over the past few episodes we have looked at precomps, and how they help to group layers together to apply effects and tracks mattes as a whole.

In After Effects there is another way we can group multiple layers and manage things like position and scale of multiple layers at once.

In After Effects we can create what is called a Null object, and use something that is called parenting.

In this Video I will be discussing null objects and parenting and how this works in After Effects.

Enjoy!
