3-5s Smooth Logo Draw-On Animation
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have an Illustrator-based logo that needs to come to life with a smooth, clean draw-on effect. The full reveal should run about 3 seconds and appear sequentially—each element animating one after the other until the complete mark is on screen. The finish is a fade away.
Workflow I expect
• Build crisp, editable outlines in Adobe Illustrator.
• Import those paths into Adobe After Effects and animate them with shape layers and Trim Paths (no rasterised bits, please).
• Keep the motion fluid and refined rather than sketchy or jittery.
Hand-off requirements
• Final render: 1920×1080 (ProRes 4444 with alpha or high-quality H.264 if alpha isn’t needed).
• Organised project files: .ai source, .aep with clearly named comps, plus any referenced assets.
• Settings that let me tweak stroke colour or timing without hunting through the timeline.
Acceptance
The animation must:
1. Finish close to 3, upon approval.
2. Reveal logo parts sequentially from start to finish.
3. Hold on the fully drawn logo for at least half a second before fade out.
4. Contain no third-party plugins unless agreed in advance.
Deliver everything (ai and ae files) via a single zipped folder so I can open, edit, and render variations on my end.
