After Effects Basic Animation (Rotation)

After Effects Basic Animation (Rotation)

If we want to animate the rotation of a layer we must click on the layer we want to edit.Then press R key.From the dropdown menu click on the stopwatch
.Change the values of the rotation.A keyframe will automatic added.Move the time forward or backward and then change again the values .Go at the very first frame and press Space button and watch your animation.
You can see a good example by importing a photo of a wheel with rims and animate it.You will see that you can animate a photo of a car simply by rotating  the wheels.
Because the photos you will find on the net will be four corners and you will see a plane to rotate ,you must mask the wheel so to keep only the wheel and not  keep all the  objects of the photos.
