Animating graphs in After Effects – Bar graphs

In this short tutorial, I explain the basics of animating graphs in After Effects – Bar graphs. Animating graphs in After Effects is easy and fully customisable. I’ll go over how to make as many bars as you want, how to animate them to accurately reflect the exact numbers in your data, how to change the colour and thickness of the bar, the style of the bars and add an animated counter above each bar that ‘counts up’ to whatever value you want. Keep an eye out for other tutorials on how to make other graphs and graphics to tell the story of your data or how to animate amazing infographics. 0:00 - Intro 0:38 - Making & customising a bar 2:12 - Animating a bar 3:25 - Create & animate a number counter 8:54 - Duplicating bars & number counters 13:23 - Staggering indivuidual bar animations I hope you find it useful, and please get in touch if you want anything specific and I’ll do my best to work it out and post a video on it.
