Animate CC Creating Motion Guides

Use a motion guide and a classic tween to create complex movement and property changes with a hand-drawn path.

You understand how to make a guide. I'm so sick and tired of these guide makers who start about how often they go to the toilet or how much they wipe the ass of their damn pet before they start the actual guide. I want the straight solution and you did that very clearly!

I'm dying doing a university work due for tomorrow and you saved it, thanks.

You're a life savior, thank you so much, I have been trying to make motion guides for long !

[chrissgchriss]

Thank you, I forgot about motion guides - and never knew about the color or scale. You explain well, and go through all the steps. I like candy.

[SleepySpidyy]

Thank you for the tutorial. Super helpful and straight to the point!

[KevStrong]

Never animated before and had an idea for a video I am creating - Needed EXACTLY this solution for motion. Thank you!

[fortnitegoblin]

Thank you so much. I'm having trouble with this in class and you made it more easier than what the teacher is explaining to me. Thank you much!

You can make perfect circles delete the fill and use the boundary lines as perfect path for guided tween. :)

I was stuck like a hell and fortunately found you. Thanks for your super easy tutorials.
But i have a problem if you please guide me. That's it: Once i try to rotate any symbol by using Q selection tool, it was rotate with skew though i select the symbol on "Free Transform".

This was extremely helpful and easy to understand, thank you so much!!! A little fun fact: the guide layer symbol at 2:14 is actually a T-Square! :D

I tried this but for some reason, when I make a loop, the airplane just follows across the bottom and doesn't go on the loop. How do I fix this?

[izzojackal]

new to adobe in general. ill have to give this a try. thanks! youre guide was actually understandable. Look forward to seeing more from you

[clayhalliwell]

That icon for an unlinked guide layer isn't a hammer, it's a t-square.

[Doubleaa]

Thank You for this tutorial!!
Are you able to use a pen tool to create a perfectly smooth guide line?

[LePopCollectibles]

Thanks, that's what I've been looking for.

[MaxwellKnives]

How do I change the speed of the guide at certain points?

[ModestNeko]

Thank you so much! I never knew how to use motion guides before :0 I feel this will make my animations much smoother and easier to make.
Quick question though: if you draw a straight horizontal line for the motion guide and tween a character object across it to walk straight, would I then be able to do keyframes in the tween to bounce the symbol for walking or would this mess everything up?

Please make an video on moving shape tween on curvy path.... 😂😂

[Elizabeth-yfdp]

Still not working for me. It won’t follow the guide it just goes from the points

[grafxwolf]

animate is too complicated software but thanks you to help us out
