Description

========================================================================

LEARN A COMPLETE MOTION GRAPHIC PROJECT - FROM START TO FINISH

TEST OUT IF YOU WANT TO LEARN AFTER EFFECTS FOR REAL!

========================================================================

I prepared this short course to show you a complete Adobe After Effects workflow, from selecting the footage (or having a video prepared) to completing your video transition reveal. You will learn a few basics about the software and definately have fun creating the project itself.

This is why I prepared this, project based course - to both teach you the tools & software and let you create real-life after effects projects right away together with me. It doesn't require any prior deep knowledge of After Effects at all - but it will be helpful if you know a little about Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects in general.

========================================================================

NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IN AFTER EFFECTS NEEDED!

MAKE A BEAUTIFUL VIDEO TRANSITION AND ENJOY IT :)

========================================================================

Don't get me wrong, learning After effects cc or even the newest after effects cc 2017 version from scratch, tool by tool, handle by handle, element by element is an amazing journey and I also have recorded a comprehensive After Effects course in that fashion, but some of you who are already a bit familiar with video editing, animation or motion graphics (fade in, fade out, trimming, keyframes) would like to start right away.

This course is perfect for students, who want to start learning a little bit about After Effects right away, from the animation / motion graphics side to include it in your videos. This course will be optimal for people who just want to get a basic grasp of the video editing possibilities After Effects provides!

What are the biggest benefits of this after effects course?

You learn on a real-life example
You get additional design tips & tricks on motion graphics
Your instructor is an experienced after effects designer & user
You will know if you are interested in After Effects after completing the project
