The anime filter’s inability to capture darker skin tones accurately is one of the biggest issues users have with the filter.

02 [More Tutorials on Anime Filter That You Should Not Miss](#Part 2)
Part 1 Let’s Figure out What’s Anime Filter First
01What is the Anime Filter on TikTok?
Okay, first off What even is this anime filter everyone is talking about and how can you use it to turn yourself into an animated character? We’ve attached a helpful YouTube Video below from @Kapwing who has a more comprehensive explanation for you.
But, as for the basics? It works just like most filters in that it can be used in both video and picture mode (allowing you to also make your own animated profile picture if you’d like). All you have to do is turn it on, and it’ll turn you into the most fitting anime character of your style immediately
02How to Get the TikTok Anime Filter?
Now to finally get down to business How exactly can you get the anime filter for your TikTok? Well, here’s the trick Despite having earned its popularity on TikTok, the Anime Style filter actually comes from Snapchat So, if you do want to animate yourself like you’ve seen all the other popular TikTok-ers do, you’ll need to record the video (or take the picture) on the Snapchat App first and then upload it to TikTok.
03A step-by-step breakdown of this process has been provided below (pictures included)
Step 1Download the Snapchat App
Alright, to start off with, you’ll need to download the Snapchat app on your smartphone (it’s available for both Android and iOS devices)
Step 2Open Snapchat App on your mobile device
Once you have the Snapchat app downloaded and installed on your device, open it
Step 3Search for the Anime Style Filter on Snapchat
Once you have the Snapchat app open, click on the search bar at the top of the interface, type ‘anime style’, and search
You might find that there are multiple versions of the filter (like as is shown in the image below), but the one that you need to select is the one titled Anime Style and created by Snapchat (it should appear first, as it does in the example)
Step 4Turn Yourself into an Animated Character
Finally You should be moved to the video recorder or the profile picture taker, where you can see yourself animated once and for all
Step 5Upload your anime filter-ed video to TikTok
Now, in order to get your Anime-fied self on TikTok, all you need to do is upload your video creation (either on your mobile device or your computer) We’ve provided a URL for you below that will take you directly to the TikTok upload page.
Part 2 More Tutorials on Anime Filter That You Should Not Miss
The Anime Style filter that we introduced in the previous section isn’t the only ‘animated’ filter available, of course It’s the one that caught the attention of a lot of people, thanks, in large part, to the participation of a couple of some of the bigger TikTok-ers on the platform. However, you can always expand your selection a bit by checking out some of the other interesting anime filters in the market:
0112 Anime Filters to Turn Yourself into an Anime Character
Anime Filter #1: Anime Style Realistic
In order to fix some of the more glaring issues with the regular Anime Style filter, Snapchat created a second filter, called Anime Style Realistic This one has a distinctively less anime style when it comes to looks. But it does allow for more skin colors, better hair integration, and accessories
Pros
FREE Snapchat lens that you can use at any time.
Works with most skin tones.
Better hair/accessory integration.
Cons
The style is more realistic than anime.
It is not available anywhere else; you’ll need to be on Snapchat to use it.
Not great at capturing motion.
This is a fun filter to use for those looking to spice up their timeline with something a little different (OR for those having a bad day and would like the almost-anonymity the filter can provide).
Anime Filter #2: Cartoon Style
Next, we have another Snapchat original lens called Cartoon Style This filter is more reminiscent of the older animated cartoon styles (think Pocahontas, Lilo & Stitch, etc.), but it doesn’t make it any less fun

FREE Snapchat lens.
Works with all skin tones.
Works with accessories.
Cons
More of a cartoon animated style than anime.
Not available anywhere else, you can only use it with Snapchat.

Anime Filter #3: Anime Filter
Now, although we mentioned that TikTok doesn’t have any anime-style filters, the Chinese version of it (surprisingly) does You can see it being used in the image above, rendering the user into an animated (albeit not classically Japanese animated) character.
Pros
Free Chinese TikTok filter.
Great at capturing motion.
Chinese animated drawing style.
Cons
Only available for the foreign version of the TikTok app.
Not the best with skin tones.
It doesn’t use the classic Japanese-animation style.

Blender is a FREE, open-source 3D Animation program that is very popular for beginner animators. It’s a good way of starting if you’re not yet sure about how far you want to go into animation as it won’t demand any immediate monetary commitment.
Now, as for its features, today, we’ll be focusing on Blender Rigging features.
In this article
01 [Why Use Blender Rigging?](#Part 1)
02 [The Art of Effective Rigging in Blender [TUTORIAL]](#Part 2)
03 [Introduction to Rigging in Blender Course](#Part 3)
Part 1 Why Use Blender Rigging?
Blender Character Rigging is a great way of creating truly beautiful and realistic animations. Despite being an open-source program, it’s capable of doing just as much, if not more, than some of the more premium Animation software out there.
So, if you want to create video projects for your audience’s entertainment or edification with animation, then Blender Rigging is definitely something that you should consider. With this tool, you can create the complex animations that you need and then polish it up in a video editor like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor (which is a premium, video-editing tool that you can use to perfect your finished Blender Rigging animations.)
Part 2 The Art of Effective Rigging in Blender [TUTORIAL]
For this next section, we’re going to be introducing a couple of tutorials that you can look into to teach you more about Blender Character Rigging, Blender Facial Rigging, Blender Muscle Rig, and so on.
These topics are each very long-winded on their own though, so we’ve linked appropriate video tutorials that you can learn more and reserved ourselves to a brief description of each technique so that you can determine whether it’s something that interests you (although, of course, our recommendation is that you check each one out so that you can get the full ‘Blender’ experience.)
01Blender Character Rigging
The main thing people usually look at Blender for is, Blender Character Rigging. And, because it was created to emulate professional animation software, Blender has this function down to pat. To give you an idea of what features you can expect: Blender comes with custom bone shapes for easy Blender character rigging, it also comes with envelope skinny, skeleton skinning, and automatic skinning. With these alone, you can be assured that you will be able to create complex animations without much trouble.
02Blender Facial Rigging
Facial Rigging is usually a more complex subject that is avoided by animators without much experience. But, with Blender, facial rigging is possible. The YouTube video should show you the process of going about Blender Facial Rigging from start to finish (from sculpting the character face itself and then making use of Blender Rigging tools for setting up a skeletal structure for your face’s character to become animated.)
03Blender Muscle Rigging
Creating a Blender Muscle Rig is exactly what it sounds like. It is, of course, much more complicated than normal rigging, but it is a good subject to familiarize yourself with anyway, as it will allow you to go to the ‘next stage’ as you say, with your Animations. The video that we’ve attached is from Pierrick Picaut, who has released a series of videos on the subject of Blender Rigging in general and has extensively explained how to create a Blender Human Rig from the general body, the face, the muscles, and so on.
04Blender Rigging
Although a lot of Animation relies on more ‘traditional’ methods of expressing movement, one can still make use of more modern animation practices, like rigs, to set up their animations for movement. It’s an especially good skill to learn if you’re more interested in content-friendly animations (rather than creating a film of your own.)
05Blender Rigging
This next tutorial is an introduction to basic Blender Rigging. It’s a good one to both start and end on, as it was created for beginners specifically, and uses an example that is perhaps easier to understand most. Make sure to give it a shot just in case.
Part 3 Introduction to Rigging in Blender Course
For this next part, we introduce two other resources that you can take advantage of to learn more about Blender Rigging. Whether it be about Blender character rigging, Blender facial rigging, free blender rigs, creating muscle rigs, and so and so forth. These resources have got your back.
01Where to Learn the Course?
The first major course that we think you might be interested in is Mark Masters’ blender rigging course. You can find this course at PluralSight (which is a website that is focused on helping users of software develop their skills). Mark Masters, the instructor for this course, is a professional animator and works as a Animator for the animation studio, Steelhouse Productions. So, you can be sure that there is much that you can learn from him.
02Other Tools to Learn Rigging
As for other places to learn? We suggest the “Blender Fundamentals” course that Blender themselves have posted on YouTube. They have several of these courses (for all of the more recent versions of Blender). So, you can pick out a course that works for you. One of their more recent series is “Blender Fundamentals 2.which currently has videos all on the subject of Blender rigging (including Blender rigging and Blender rigging videos.)
● Key Takeaways from This Episode →
● If you’re interested in trying out blender rigging yourself, you’ll probably want to study the subject a little before beginning.
● Blender Rigging is quite a complex subject for beginners but having something to start with should help you on your way.
● For that, we recommend checking out the videos that we mentioned in section two of this article, where we recommend some popular tutorials regarding some of the more common Blender Rigging subjects.
● If you’re looking for something more comprehensive or put together though. A course might be more up to your taste. For that, we recommend either Mark Master’s introduction to rigging and animation over at PluralSight or Blender’s own “Blender Fundamental” series on YouTube (which should introduce all the functions you’ll need to know.)

● For that, we recommend checking out the videos that we mentioned in section two of this article, where we recommend some popular tutorials regarding some of the more common Blender Rigging subjects.
● If you’re looking for something more comprehensive or put together though. A course might be more up to your taste. For that, we recommend either Mark Master’s introduction to rigging and animation over at PluralSight or Blender’s own “Blender Fundamental” series on YouTube (which should introduce all the functions you’ll need to know.)
Blender is a FREE, open-source 3D Animation program that is very popular for beginner animators. It’s a good way of starting if you’re not yet sure about how far you want to go into animation as it won’t demand any immediate monetary commitment.
Now, as for its features, today, we’ll be focusing on Blender Rigging features.
In this article
01 [Why Use Blender Rigging?](#Part 1)
02 [The Art of Effective Rigging in Blender [TUTORIAL]](#Part 2)
03 [Introduction to Rigging in Blender Course](#Part 3)
Part 1 Why Use Blender Rigging?
Blender Character Rigging is a great way of creating truly beautiful and realistic animations. Despite being an open-source program, it’s capable of doing just as much, if not more, than some of the more premium Animation software out there.
So, if you want to create video projects for your audience’s entertainment or edification with animation, then Blender Rigging is definitely something that you should consider. With this tool, you can create the complex animations that you need and then polish it up in a video editor like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor (which is a premium, video-editing tool that you can use to perfect your finished Blender Rigging animations.)
Part 2 The Art of Effective Rigging in Blender [TUTORIAL]
For this next section, we’re going to be introducing a couple of tutorials that you can look into to teach you more about Blender Character Rigging, Blender Facial Rigging, Blender Muscle Rig, and so on.
These topics are each very long-winded on their own though, so we’ve linked appropriate video tutorials that you can learn more and reserved ourselves to a brief description of each technique so that you can determine whether it’s something that interests you (although, of course, our recommendation is that you check each one out so that you can get the full ‘Blender’ experience.)
01Blender Character Rigging
The main thing people usually look at Blender for is, Blender Character Rigging. And, because it was created to emulate professional animation software, Blender has this function down to pat. To give you an idea of what features you can expect: Blender comes with custom bone shapes for easy Blender character rigging, it also comes with envelope skinny, skeleton skinning, and automatic skinning. With these alone, you can be assured that you will be able to create complex animations without much trouble.
02Blender Facial Rigging
Facial Rigging is usually a more complex subject that is avoided by animators without much experience. But, with Blender, facial rigging is possible. The YouTube video should show you the process of going about Blender Facial Rigging from start to finish (from sculpting the character face itself and then making use of Blender Rigging tools for setting up a skeletal structure for your face’s character to become animated.)
03Blender Muscle Rigging
Creating a Blender Muscle Rig is exactly what it sounds like. It is, of course, much more complicated than normal rigging, but it is a good subject to familiarize yourself with anyway, as it will allow you to go to the ‘next stage’ as you say, with your Animations. The video that we’ve attached is from Pierrick Picaut, who has released a series of videos on the subject of Blender Rigging in general and has extensively explained how to create a Blender Human Rig from the general body, the face, the muscles, and so on.
04Blender Rigging
Although a lot of Animation relies on more ‘traditional’ methods of expressing movement, one can still make use of more modern animation practices, like rigs, to set up their animations for movement. It’s an especially good skill to learn if you’re more interested in content-friendly animations (rather than creating a film of your own.)
05Blender Rigging
This next tutorial is an introduction to basic Blender Rigging. It’s a good one to both start and end on, as it was created for beginners specifically, and uses an example that is perhaps easier to understand most. Make sure to give it a shot just in case.
Part 3 Introduction to Rigging in Blender Course
For this next part, we introduce two other resources that you can take advantage of to learn more about Blender Rigging. Whether it be about Blender character rigging, Blender facial rigging, free blender rigs, creating muscle rigs, and so and so forth. These resources have got your back.
01Where to Learn the Course?
The first major course that we think you might be interested in is Mark Masters’ blender rigging course. You can find this course at PluralSight (which is a website that is focused on helping users of software develop their skills). Mark Masters, the instructor for this course, is a professional animator and works as a Animator for the animation studio, Steelhouse Productions. So, you can be sure that there is much that you can learn from him.
02Other Tools to Learn Rigging
As for other places to learn? We suggest the “Blender Fundamentals” course that Blender themselves have posted on YouTube. They have several of these courses (for all of the more recent versions of Blender). So, you can pick out a course that works for you. One of their more recent series is “Blender Fundamentals 2.which currently has videos all on the subject of Blender rigging (including Blender rigging and Blender rigging videos.)

Method 1 Make Animated Travel Map Videos with Location Video Maker

Part 1: Prepare the Travel Map Materials
Following are the ingredients and the methods to collect them for animated travel map preparation:
Step 1: Get the Map
The first thing that you would need to prepare an animated map is an image of a realistic map. Thanks to Google and Microsoft, these things are now pretty easy to arrange. The process is given below:
- Launch your preferred web browser
- Type google.com in the address bar or the search box and hit Enter
- Scroll to zoom out so you can see the entire world map on one screen
- Type Snipping Tool in the Cortana search box present on the left side of the Taskbar
- Launch Snipping Tool, and use it to capture the screenshot of the map
Note: Snipping Tool is a built-in app in Windows 10 and is available for free. If you are using any other operating system, or have a different program to capture the screenshots, feel free to use it according to your convenience.
- Save the screenshot you captured as a JPG file on your PC
Step 2: Mark Out the Map Path
The next step in the process of preparing an animated travel map is to mark your route on it. To do so, you can use any of your preferred photo editing tools. However, to keep this illustration simple, Microsoft Paint is used here, and the method is given below:
- Right-click the screenshot you just captured
- Go to Open with on the context menu, and then click Paint from the submenu that appears
- Pick your preferred color from the pallet of the Paint interface. It is advisable to use an eye-catchy shade such as Red
- Use the Sphere shape tool to draw a circle over the source and destination locations on the map
- Use the Line tool to draw a line from the source point to the destination. Try giving the line a few turns to make it look realistic
- Go to File > Save As, and save the marked image with a different name
Note: Once this is done, you should have two image files of the map, i.e., one without the marks and one with it
Step 3: Download Some Travel Icons
Another important ingredient in an effective travel map animation is touring icons such as location marker image, a traveling medium symbol like a helicopter, airplane, car/bike (for short distances), etc. A couple of websites that offer royalty-free stock photos at absolutely no cost are listed below:
Note: Although the websites given above allow you to download and use their stock images and icons for free, you may need to give credits to the designers/creators of the symbols while using their objects. Therefore, you are suggested to check the Terms & Conditions and norms of usage of the elements before downloading and adding them to your projects.
Part 2: Make Animated Travel Map Videos with Filmora
After you have gathered all the necessary ingredients that are required to create a travel map animation, it is now time to get to work. The following instructions would guide you through the step-by-step process of preparing a decent and realistic animated travel map in Wondershare Filmora :

Step 1: Import Ingredients to Filmora and Add Them to the Timeline
Launch the video editor on your computer, click anywhere inside the Media window at the upper-left area, and import all the images and icons that you collected earlier to program. Next, drag both the images of the map, i.e., with and without the marks to the Timeline, and ensure that they are of the same duration and are placed on the same track.
Note: Be sure to put the map without the marks first, and then the one with the marks. Also note that the images have the playback duration of 5 seconds in the Timeline by default, and this tenure can be reduced or increased by dragging the side handle of the media to the left or right respectively.
Step 2: Add Transition for Illusion of Route Appearance
Go to Transition from the standard toolbar at the top, locate the Erase Slide transition effect from the available presets, and place it in between the two image files that you earlier added to the Timeline. Next, click and drag either of the side handles of the transition to the end of the media clip. Notice how the other side of the effect is expanded in equal proportion.
Step 3: Preview and Export
Press the Spacebar on the keyboard to preview the video and see if the route appears as if it is being drawn on the map. Once the animation looks acceptable, click EXPORT from the top-center, go to the Local tab on the Export window, select MP4 from the formats list in the left, and click EXPORT from the bottom-right corner to export the current animation to MP4.
Step 4: Customize the Travel Map Media
Either start a new project and import the video of the map you exported in the previous step to the app and then to the Timeline, or remove the existing media from the Timeline in the same project, and add the exported video to it for convenience.

Next, position the Skimmer (Playhead) a couple of frames before the one the route line appears and starts stretching from, and click the Split icon from the editing toolbar above the Timeline itself. Repeat this process for the other side of the media, i.e., position the Skimmer a couple of frames after the route line reaches the destination location, and click the Split icon again. Then remove the separated segments from both the sides by selecting them and pressing Delete on the keyboard, leaving only the portion where the animation is visible.
Optionally, right-click the media that is left behind in the Timeline, and go to Speed and Duration from the context menu. On the Custom Speed box, drag the Speed slider to the left to decrease the playback speed resulting in the increased duration of the media. Alternatively, you can manually enter a value in the Speed box to get precise tenure. Click OK when you are done.
Step 5: Add Animations to Travel Map
Right-click the media in the Timeline, and go to Add Animation from the context menu. Make sure that the Skimmer is on the first frame, and add several keyframes as explained below:
- Click Add to add the first keyframe
- Move a couple of frames further, and click Add one more time. Now, while you are on this second keyframe, use the Scale slider to zoom in to the map so the source location remains within focus.
- Next, move the Playhead further and add another keyframe a couple of frames before the route line hits the edge of the window.
- After this, move the Playhead again and position it where the route line reaches its destination location. Add another keyframe here as well, and move the map in the Preview window so the focus is now on the destination.
- Move the Playhead a few frames further, add another keyframe, and use the Scale slider to zoom a bit more into the map to make the entire animation look realistic. Click OK to save the changes.
Step 6: Add Icons and Titles, and Export the Project
Drag the image of the traveling medium to the Timeline, and place it on the frame the route line starts from. Make sure to place the image on the track above the map, and stretch it to the end so it remains visible throughout the animation. Next, use the method explained above to add keyframes to move the medium along with the route line from the source to the destination. Optionally, add the image of the location marker at the destination point, go to Transition, and add your preferred transition effect, preferably Dissolve, to the marker track in the Timeline so it looks as if it has appeared as the medium arrived the destination.

Get back to the first frame in the Timeline, go to Titles on the standard toolbar, and add a title preset somewhere near the source location. Resize the text, change the format as needed, and add your preferred caption to it such as the start time, name, etc. Reduce the duration of the track so the title appears for a few frames, preferably before the map animation starts. Click OK when done. Repeat this process for the destination point as well.
Once everything is complete, click the Play button in the Preview window to review your work. If the video looks acceptable, click EXPORT from the top-center of the interface, and use the method explained earlier to export the animated travel map in your preferred format.
Method 2 How to Make Interactive Animated Travel Map with Pictramap
If you don’t want to install a dedicated animation software on your computer due to limited hardware resources or some other reason, there is an online solution called Pictramap to create a travel map animation using a web browser. The web app offers a lucrative interface that could be easily understood and worked with to produce an animated map for free.
The process to create an animated travel map with Pictramap is given below:
Step 1: Create a Project
Launch your favorite web browser, go to https://www.pictramap.com/ , click Create yours now, it’s free, and sign up to Pictramap using your preferred method. When you are on the Dashboard, enter a name in the field available under the My Projects section, and click Create to create a new project (the animated map).
Step 2: Define the Locations and Method of Commute
On the map, right-click the location you want to start your journey from, enter the name of the location or any other significant title, and click Add. Click the location marker, click the Travel Mode icon, and select your preferred mode of traveling. Repeat this process to mark the destination location as well.
Step 3: Preview the Animation
Click the View Animation button from the upper-right corner of the page to see the animated travel map.
Downsides of Using Pictramap to Create Animated Travel Map Video
Although Pictramap allows you to create a travel map animation with ease and extremely quickly, at the time of this writing, it offers no way of downloading the animation to your PC, and therefore it couldn’t be used in your projects.
If you are using Wondershare Filmora, you can use its built-in screen recording feature to record the animation that Pictramap plays, and then save the captured footage as MP4 or any other format on your computer. This video can then be imported to your projects for further uses.

Method 3 How To Make Animated Travel Map Using Multidev
Multi.dev is still a new web-based application to build awesome animated maps, but it’s good! The application helps you create presentations about all your recent and previous trips. And the interface is also hassle-free.
So, follow this step-by-step guide to making animated maps with Multi.dev.
Step 1: Open Multi.dev
Visit Multi.dev from your internet browser.
Once the tool gets open, you will see a demo video. This example clip will have animated maps of different locations. So it is up to you whether to use the same example and edit the places you have been to or are planning to visit. Or, simply create a new animated map from scratch.
Step 2: Choose Your First Location
Take your mouse cursor on the left side of the application and type the first location in the search bar. As soon as you do it, you will see that the “travel arrow” will automatically begin from there. Likewise, type and select the next location through the search bar.
Once you type the location, you will see 8 travel modes, including airplane, bus, and train. You can select the same mode for all sites or a different mode for another place. Totally up to you!
Step 3: Select Map Themes
All your chosen places will be highlighted in the software’s minimalistic map.
Step 4: Download Map on Your Computer
If you’re happy with the animated map, click the “Create Video” button to save the animated map on your computer in a few minutes.
Contrarily, you can also share the animation by choosing the “Share Animation” option.
Conclusion
An animated travel map plays an important role to add a realistic touring effect to your motion picture projects. While you can use a web app like Pictramap to create such an animation online easily and for free, the limitations it comes along with might keep you from choosing this method.
Instead, you may want to get more inclined toward a dedicated post-production software like Wondershare Filmora that gives you full control over the process, and the freedom to choose your preferred format to export the animation to for independent usage.

Although Pictramap allows you to create a travel map animation with ease and extremely quickly, at the time of this writing, it offers no way of downloading the animation to your PC, and therefore it couldn’t be used in your projects.
If you are using Wondershare Filmora, you can use its built-in screen recording feature to record the animation that Pictramap plays, and then save the captured footage as MP4 or any other format on your computer. This video can then be imported to your projects for further uses.

Animated travel map videos make it easy for the viewers to follow the routes from the source to destination locations right on the single screen. While the static maps would only allow the audience to see the markers from where the journey would start and is expected to end, the animated ones show the real-time movements and therefore look more interactive when viewed.
That said, here you will learn how to create an attractive and engaging animated travel map video using one of the easiest post-production applications, Wondershare Filmora, which is widely appreciated by amateurs and professionals throughout the globe. In another section, you will also learn about an alternative program that might be of some help in case you are more into online designing.

Method 1 Make Animated Travel Map Videos with Location Video Maker
The entire process of creating an animated travel map video in Wondershare’s Filmora is categorized into two parts, wherein the first part you will collect all the ingredients that are needed to get started, and in the second part you will actually make an animated map using the tools and features present in Filmora.

Part 1: Prepare the Travel Map Materials
Following are the ingredients and the methods to collect them for animated travel map preparation:
Step 1: Get the Map
The first thing that you would need to prepare an animated map is an image of a realistic map. Thanks to Google and Microsoft, these things are now pretty easy to arrange. The process is given below:
- Launch your preferred web browser
- Type google.com in the address bar or the search box and hit Enter
- Scroll to zoom out so you can see the entire world map on one screen
- Type Snipping Tool in the Cortana search box present on the left side of the Taskbar
- Launch Snipping Tool, and use it to capture the screenshot of the map
Note: Snipping Tool is a built-in app in Windows 10 and is available for free. If you are using any other operating system, or have a different program to capture the screenshots, feel free to use it according to your convenience.
- Save the screenshot you captured as a JPG file on your PC
Step 2: Mark Out the Map Path
The next step in the process of preparing an animated travel map is to mark your route on it. To do so, you can use any of your preferred photo editing tools. However, to keep this illustration simple, Microsoft Paint is used here, and the method is given below:
- Right-click the screenshot you just captured
- Go to Open with on the context menu, and then click Paint from the submenu that appears
- Pick your preferred color from the pallet of the Paint interface. It is advisable to use an eye-catchy shade such as Red
- Use the Sphere shape tool to draw a circle over the source and destination locations on the map
- Use the Line tool to draw a line from the source point to the destination. Try giving the line a few turns to make it look realistic
- Go to File > Save As, and save the marked image with a different name
Note: Once this is done, you should have two image files of the map, i.e., one without the marks and one with it
Step 3: Download Some Travel Icons
Another important ingredient in an effective travel map animation is touring icons such as location marker image, a traveling medium symbol like a helicopter, airplane, car/bike (for short distances), etc. A couple of websites that offer royalty-free stock photos at absolutely no cost are listed below:
Note: Although the websites given above allow you to download and use their stock images and icons for free, you may need to give credits to the designers/creators of the symbols while using their objects. Therefore, you are suggested to check the Terms & Conditions and norms of usage of the elements before downloading and adding them to your projects.
Part 2: Make Animated Travel Map Videos with Filmora
After you have gathered all the necessary ingredients that are required to create a travel map animation, it is now time to get to work. The following instructions would guide you through the step-by-step process of preparing a decent and realistic animated travel map in Wondershare Filmora :
For Win 7 or later (64-bit)

For macOS 10.14 or later

Step 1: Import Ingredients to Filmora and Add Them to the Timeline
Launch the video editor on your computer, click anywhere inside the Media window at the upper-left area, and import all the images and icons that you collected earlier to program. Next, drag both the images of the map, i.e., with and without the marks to the Timeline, and ensure that they are of the same duration and are placed on the same track.
Note: Be sure to put the map without the marks first, and then the one with the marks. Also note that the images have the playback duration of 5 seconds in the Timeline by default, and this tenure can be reduced or increased by dragging the side handle of the media to the left or right respectively.
Step 2: Add Transition for Illusion of Route Appearance
Go to Transition from the standard toolbar at the top, locate the Erase Slide transition effect from the available presets, and place it in between the two image files that you earlier added to the Timeline. Next, click and drag either of the side handles of the transition to the end of the media clip. Notice how the other side of the effect is expanded in equal proportion.
Step 3: Preview and Export
Press the Spacebar on the keyboard to preview the video and see if the route appears as if it is being drawn on the map. Once the animation looks acceptable, click EXPORT from the top-center, go to the Local tab on the Export window, select MP4 from the formats list in the left, and click EXPORT from the bottom-right corner to export the current animation to MP4.
Step 4: Customize the Travel Map Media
Either start a new project and import the video of the map you exported in the previous step to the app and then to the Timeline, or remove the existing media from the Timeline in the same project, and add the exported video to it for convenience.

Next, position the Skimmer (Playhead) a couple of frames before the one the route line appears and starts stretching from, and click the Split icon from the editing toolbar above the Timeline itself. Repeat this process for the other side of the media, i.e., position the Skimmer a couple of frames after the route line reaches the destination location, and click the Split icon again. Then remove the separated segments from both the sides by selecting them and pressing Delete on the keyboard, leaving only the portion where the animation is visible.
Optionally, right-click the media that is left behind in the Timeline, and go to Speed and Duration from the context menu. On the Custom Speed box, drag the Speed slider to the left to decrease the playback speed resulting in the increased duration of the media. Alternatively, you can manually enter a value in the Speed box to get precise tenure. Click OK when you are done.
Step 5: Add Animations to Travel Map
Right-click the media in the Timeline, and go to Add Animation from the context menu. Make sure that the Skimmer is on the first frame, and add several keyframes as explained below:
- Click Add to add the first keyframe
- Move a couple of frames further, and click Add one more time. Now, while you are on this second keyframe, use the Scale slider to zoom in to the map so the source location remains within focus.
- Next, move the Playhead further and add another keyframe a couple of frames before the route line hits the edge of the window.
- After this, move the Playhead again and position it where the route line reaches its destination location. Add another keyframe here as well, and move the map in the Preview window so the focus is now on the destination.
- Move the Playhead a few frames further, add another keyframe, and use the Scale slider to zoom a bit more into the map to make the entire animation look realistic. Click OK to save the changes.
Step 6: Add Icons and Titles, and Export the Project
Drag the image of the traveling medium to the Timeline, and place it on the frame the route line starts from. Make sure to place the image on the track above the map, and stretch it to the end so it remains visible throughout the animation. Next, use the method explained above to add keyframes to move the medium along with the route line from the source to the destination. Optionally, add the image of the location marker at the destination point, go to Transition, and add your preferred transition effect, preferably Dissolve, to the marker track in the Timeline so it looks as if it has appeared as the medium arrived the destination.

Get back to the first frame in the Timeline, go to Titles on the standard toolbar, and add a title preset somewhere near the source location. Resize the text, change the format as needed, and add your preferred caption to it such as the start time, name, etc. Reduce the duration of the track so the title appears for a few frames, preferably before the map animation starts. Click OK when done. Repeat this process for the destination point as well.
Once everything is complete, click the Play button in the Preview window to review your work. If the video looks acceptable, click EXPORT from the top-center of the interface, and use the method explained earlier to export the animated travel map in your preferred format.
Method 2 How to Make Interactive Animated Travel Map with Pictramap
If you don’t want to install a dedicated animation software on your computer due to limited hardware resources or some other reason, there is an online solution called Pictramap to create a travel map animation using a web browser. The web app offers a lucrative interface that could be easily understood and worked with to produce an animated map for free.
The process to create an animated travel map with Pictramap is given below:
Step 1: Create a Project
Launch your favorite web browser, go to https://www.pictramap.com/ , click Create yours now, it’s free, and sign up to Pictramap using your preferred method. When you are on the Dashboard, enter a name in the field available under the My Projects section, and click Create to create a new project (the animated map).
Step 2: Define the Locations and Method of Commute
On the map, right-click the location you want to start your journey from, enter the name of the location or any other significant title, and click Add. Click the location marker, click the Travel Mode icon, and select your preferred mode of traveling. Repeat this process to mark the destination location as well.
Step 3: Preview the Animation
Click the View Animation button from the upper-right corner of the page to see the animated travel map.
