How to Use Parenting and Null Objects | After Effects Tutorial for Motion Graphics | Adobe Video

[boudeca]

you genius!! that trick with holding shift when parenting saved me!! Thanks so much!!

[IntraVortex]

Nice job Kyle!!! So smooth and clear. A born teacher. And a learned professional.

[thatactorguy]

Thank you. Your video included one detail that none of the others I watched did... opening the parenting menu. I was trying to use the Track Matte menu because that is what the other videos looked like they were using and that was what was open by default. Obviously THAT didn't work.

Well explained n the best explanation of a null object. I finally know what it does n its overall purpose. Thanks so much

Wait, so if you connect layer 1 to layer 2. Which one is the parent? Layer One Right?

[mike_lifeless]

Why exactly is it that when you parent matters? Is it that it means when you parent, the other layer sees the parent at that moment as default?

[luenicluke]

can you connect a layer to more than 1 parent? for example lets say i have 1 parent null layer with tracking properties and 2nd parent null layer with a different kind of properties, can i connect my child layer to both parent layers?

[hardiklakhalani]

What could be the reason of child moving to random (not technically random) position even if I'm not holding shift or alt key?

[AbdullahYazbahar]

When i disconnect the other layers from Null layer, their positions and rotations stays the same
