Making a Simple Animated Logo

[iKokomo]

I am working on a church promo video and I would like to end my video with an "animated" version of the church logo. Now it is not a complex one at all, (just a cross inside of a triangle) but I would like to animate it as if it were being drawn onscreen by a pen or a paintbrush.

I do own the Adobe CS6 Production Premuim version. What software in that should I use, and (if possible) could I get some tutorials on how to make it possible?

 

Thanks a lot!

Hi iKokomo,

     You're going or want to use Adobe After Effects. You can find some free, although basic, tutorials at http://www.thenewboston.com. The best tutorials, however, are probably going to be found on paid sites, like http://www.lynda.com. You could also just try searching for tutorials on Google or YouTube.

Thanks! see I use Premiere and Phoshop alot so I hope alot of things transfer from those two. Thanks a lot!

The effect you are looking for is called a write-on effect. There are many ways to do it. 

The following are youtube tutorials on the subject:

also illustrator is a good program to get the basis of the logo down. I personally use photoshop but im trying to get into illustrator too
