In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to make this tiled background using just one shape layer and the Repeater. We’ll add some expression controls which will allow you to change the layout of this background in seconds, getting vastly different looks. If you’re a fan of shape layers, the Repeater, and expressions, then you’ll get a lot out of this tutorial PROJECT FILE: GET AFTER EFFECTS TEMPLATES, COACHING, AND MORE: 7 MINUTE AE STORE: MAKE A DIFFERENCE: SUBSCRIBE AND SHARE: SHARE THIS VIDEO: TAKE AFTER EFFECTS COURSES: GET AFTER EFFECTS TEMPLATES: GET AFTER EFFECTS ANIMATION PRESETS: DOWNLOAD AFTER EFFECTS PROJECT FILES: BECOME THE MOTION DESIGNER YOU WANT TO BE: GET DEALS FROM ENVATO ELEMENTS: AEJUICE FREE PLUGINS: AE JUICE - I WANT IT ALL: AFTER EFFECTS COURSES: POWER OF SHAPE LAYERS (UDEMY): POWER OF SHAPE LAYERS (SKILLSHARE): CREATE A MEDIA PRESENTATION (SKILLSHARE): SCHOOL OF AE: FOLLOW ME ON TIKTOK: @7minuteaetutorials FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM: FOLLOW ME ON FACEBOOK: FOLLOW ME ON X (TWITTER): 00:00 - What you’ll learn! 00:52 - BEGIN TUTORIAL - Group A 01:58 - The Repeater settings for X 03:42 - Add Expression Controls 06:40 - Group B 07:52 - Add Color Controls 08:58 - Expression Controls for Roundness and Rotation 10:40 - Animate the tiles with keyframes 11:26 - Add a background color with Expression Controls 13:06 - Expression Controls: Background Opacity 13:46 - Save as an Animation Preset 14:54 - Summary 15:19 - Envato Elements sponsorship video 16:46 - Outro Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time for another tutorial that will expand your knowledge of After Effects while teaching you some really cool tips, tricks, and shortcuts!
