By request of Dan Vega, I did a stream on Twitch today on Keynote animation basics for developers.

Check out the video below. We cover:

  • Magic Move, the #1 animation tool you'll want to learn
  • Shape and image animation basics
  • Text and code animation
  • Various pro tips along the way that I've learned

I've also created an egghead screencast that just shows you how to do the code highlighting animation:

Enjoy!
