Introduction

This is the result we'll create, 3 information indicators that appear one after another in the old town square, each with a pulsing dot, a drawn line, and a name label. Let's get started. Welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Callouts are indicators that explain objects in a video, often used in tutorial videos, product reviews, and documentaries. We'll create it from 3 simple elements: a dot, a line, and a label. Create a composition from old town footage.

Step 1: Marker Point

Make a small white circle named 'titik menara' at the top of the church tower. Give it a pulsing scale with keyframes at 100, 130, 100, then use the loop out expression to keep it pulsing.

Step 2: Connecting Line

Using the pen tool without fill and a 3-pixel white line, click from the dot towards the top right and then horizontally, forming a right angle line. Add trim parts and animate the N value from 0 to 100 in half a second. The drawn line emerges from the dot.

Step 3: Label

Type 'menara gereja' with bold white text at the end of the line, and a small 19th-century line below it. Animate the opacity of the label from 0 to 100 right after the line finishes. The order is: dot, line, then label.

Step 4: Next Callout

Group the three layers into a callout for the tower. Duplicate and change the content for the pine tree and the oak tree, then shift each one and a half seconds later. Callouts appear one after another so the viewer isn't overwhelmed.

Step 5: Readability

Add a soft drop shadow to each callout to ensure it remains readable over the bright sky. Use one consistent style for all callouts.

Step 6: Preview

Play the preview. Three callouts appear one by one pointing to the tower, the pine tree, and the oak tree. If the camera moves, combine the callouts with tracking from the previous module.

Done!

Done. We've created a pulsing dot with loop out, a connecting line with the pen tool and trim parts, an animated label, and arranged the callouts in sequence with pre-compose. In the next episode, we'll create a Ken Burns slideshow. Need a promotional video, logo animation, motion graphics for social media, or visual effects for a short film?
