after effects is for adding effects to frames. for movies you need adobe premiere pro. have you worked on that?

--- Updated Post - Automerged ---

first thing you need to do is record the track for the video. its easier to mould the video to an audio track.

i need to make an animated intro video

and what kind of I.T. related videos can be edited ???

i tried the you tube to find some but failed

i just need to tell whats the importance of I.T. field

first ready the script. animation from scratch requires flash and 3dsmax, not an option now unless you know them.. in After efects its harder for some and easier for some. start writing a script man. get some pictures and videos to support the script. use your textbooks and wiki. i can try to whip up a script(if u need but i am not an IT so it will not be overtly technical).. then add pics, movies and transitions over that.

Such a short time isnt enough to learn after effects and have the end product in your hands in one day.
If you have worked on your content(what to tell in the message), use a simpler video editor like ulead video studio...if u want a little after effect like quality, find and download videos like
1.Light Drip - YouTube
2.Sanodg - "From Time to Time" - Original Background Animation - YouTube
etc and use those as your background...and put your text on top.
you will end up with a glorified ppt in motion, but totally worth one day's efforts. and since you are using it in a presentation, remember CONTENT is important, not showy effects. so work on it and all will be well.

its not a presentation but a trailer type video in which ijust want to tell what accually Information technology is and how do it help a common man

like helps in banking sector or market sector for saving digital data, securing data, processing data for research, security on web and national cyber security .

its just to tell the importances of this field.

the real moto behind this trailer/video is t e launch of an IT magazin which Idesigned and made and its an intranet based magazin so iwas only told to make the video

Iam just running out of ideas due to this process and so need help.

script is something Iall try to put

tough what to write is the question :/

Making films and videos is not something you can learn in a week. It's not like Powerpoint that anyone can make a presentation. It's not just about learning After Effects. It takes years of experience to grasp the craft. I suggest you hire a professional to do the job for you. I know I am not being helpful but that's the best idea I can give you.
