 Hey guys, what's up? This is Chris Pipe. Hey guys, I'm coming back here. I've got another adobe after effects tutorial this one I'm gonna show you how to change colors of different items that you import into After Effects a lot of you guys might have you build a title or you build a design and Illustrator or photo shop for example, and you want to change colors inside of after effects or change colors over time Let me show you how to do that. We'll go real quick here guys if you're following along I'm on a Mac. Let's go to find her. I'm gonna go to my desktop and I just built something really really simple called squares dot AI And it's a black and a yellow square. I'm gonna drag and drop these bad boys into the project I'm going to import it as a stew it as a composition and Let's just get this party started. Okay, so you'll see here I've got squares as a composition now I'm gonna double click on squares and you're gonna notice that it loads up and I've got a Composition with a black background. I've got a yellow square and I've got a black square But you can't really see it because the black ground is right white. Pardon me So let's just make a change there quick composition composition settings if you're working along with me and Background color. Let's switch it out to white. I just moved it to white just so that you guys can see a little better Okay, good now. These are on separate layers. So that's an important point So layer two here is the yellow one and let's say that you know what I've got this nice artwork Or I've got whatever I brought in but I don't want it to be yellow. I want it to be blue instead, right? A lot of people would then take it back to Illustrator or Photoshop and make the changes over there. For example, you don't have to do that The next step in this process you go to affect some presets then you want to go down and you want to find a an effect called tint and This is a really good effect and now I'm going to drag and drop it onto that layer and it's there it's on layer 2 as you can see here and Presto makes it gray, which isn't exactly what we wanted to do But what we want to do is we want to map the black To the color that we said we wanted to be and I think we said blue So when I click over here and I go map Black to blue and then I go to map white. Oh, let's actually let me do it correctly. Sorry map white to blue Haha, I hit the wrong one there guys. I'll leave the black black as is You'll notice here that we have gone ahead and changed the color. So Turn it off Turn it on. This is done inside of After Effects Obviously and it's applied to external files like an adobe illustrator file So I'm gonna go ahead and command Zed that and change. I know let's let's Let's do that again now. You'll notice here that as I as I'm on the time head We can actually animate the color change over time while I got you So let's go ahead and left-click on this little timer Now at time zero it is blue and maybe at time. Let's go like somewhere around five seconds. We want it to be Red okay, nice bright red. So now you'll see the transition from blue To red and the weird part about all this is that when we take off this effect It started out as yellow Went to blue and then it went to red guys and this is the power of After Effects This is the power of the tint option or the tint effect inside adobe After Effects guys I hope this tutorial helps you out a little bit. I got a ton more stuff coming up and I will be back soon
