In this After Effects tutorial, I show you a method for quickly animating multiple documents. As a working video editor and motion graphics designer, animating PDFs comes up all the time. As I walk you through making this animation, I cover converting a PDF to images, composition settings when working in news video, putting images in a perfect grid, smooth keyframing with the speed graph editor, and staggering animations evenly by sequencing layers.
