OVERVIEW

After Effects course is a good mix of content ranging from a beginning level to an intermediate level. The course starts off by enforcing the fundamental foundation of the software that is crucial to working with any content in the software. We approach the software by learning key concepts and ideologies rather than following a step by step, procedural method. This technique reinforces the participant to build a strong foundation in the software that leads to more creative outcomes.
