You’ll learn how to create and mask Vector Shapes, how to work with Fill Opacity, how to Unite multiple vector shapes by where they are positioned on the Photoshop document, how to keyframe and animate multiple shapes at once to create an effect where shapes of different sizes can scale upward in unison, how to work with the Photoshop animation timeline in general, and how to export a nice video at the end of the whole thing.
