In this After Effects tutorial, you’ll learn how to design and animate a Cradle Pendulum from scratch — the perfect balance between motion design, physics, and style.
I’ll guide you through every step — from drawing the pendulum lines and balls, animating them with realistic swing motion, looping the movement using time remapping and expressions, and finally styling the scene with gradients, glow, and noise for a cinematic look.
You’ll also see how to:
• Build smooth pendulum animation with Bezier keyframes
• Create a looping animation using Time Remap & LoopOut expression
• Add depth and atmosphere using gradient ramp, colorama, and glow effects
• Design a modern, glowing style that looks clean and professional
