I learned about using the important basic functions available in Adobe After Effects. First open a new project and set the composition for the animation. The composition is HDTV 25 with 1280x 720 px with 25 frames per second. (Mr Fandi, 2017)
I learned to make a basic simple animation using the tool available in AE. I drawn a rectangle tool with black as the background and the star tool as the object. Next, I go to the below composition box and clicked the polystar 1 and then clicked the transform. The transform link will give many options that can be given to the star. They are, rotation, scale, position, anchor point and opacity. So, I was experimenting on them for all the stars I made. (Mr Fandi, 2017)

Figure 2: Transform link and its options.
Rotation allows the object to rotate. Scaling will reduce or increase the size. Opacity will give the transparency for the object. Anchor point set the centre point of an object either to rotate or move in a certain locus. Position allows the movement of the object.
Before setting the diamond points in the timeline, click on the time vary stop watch to enable the keyframes. and later set the animation that wanted to do.
After doing it render the video into MOV. FLV or MP4 and etc so that it can be viewed in media players.
Duik is another tool that can be plugged in this AE to enable the bones for a moving object like a human walking. The bones are used to move the arms and legs.
