Time Remapping lets you keyframe a layer's playback speed, enabling slow motion, freeze frames, and reverse playback.

Question 4

What does the 'Ease In' keyframe interpolation affect?

Accepted Answer

The animation decelerates as it arrives at the keyframe

Answer

Ease In slows the animation down as it approaches the keyframe, creating a smooth deceleration.

Question 5
