About Motion

In Motion, you create motion graphics and basic compositing projects with imported images (such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator files), image sequences, QuickTime movies, audio files, as well as objects created within Motion. These objects include text, masks, shapes, and particles.

All media imported into Motion, or elements created within a project, are referred to as objects. In your project, you can apply effects such as filters or behaviors to any object. A filter is a process that changes the appearance of an image. For example, a blur filter takes an input image and outputs a blurred version of that image. A behavior is a process that applies a value range to an object’s parameters, creating an animation based on the affected parameters. For example, the Spin behavior rotates an object over time at a rate that you specify.

This document explains the new features and enhancements released in Motion 3. For more information about these features and their use, see the Motion User Manual and the Motion Supplemental Documentation, available from the Motion Help menu.

3D
Motion 3 now supports a three-dimensional, multiplane compositing environment, allowing you to create sophisticated 3D motion graphics with depth and new levels of realism. In the Motion 3D workspace, you can:

• Add and animate cameras, images, and text along paths in three dimensions.
• Create particle systems and replicators with height, width, and depth.
• Apply behaviors such as Throw, Spin, and Vortex in 3D space.
• Apply new camera behaviors that automate sweeping pans and dramatic zooms.
• Stylize your projects with a combination of blend modes and scene lights.
