Student Testimonials
"A really enjoyable tutorial. A lot covered in a short space of time, but Lucas gets straight to the most important aspects of creating explainer video concepts and he continually reassures you that it becomes easy once you get into it."
"Explaining how existing animations were made was very useful. Easy to follow but I do have some AE experience, might be a bit more difficult for true beginners."
"It's good for understanding the fundamentals of animation in after effects."
"This is an AMAZING tutorial. I only watched along at this stage, but I really learnt A LOT. Great tips, straight forward. Thank you."
"Fantastic class, well structured, clear, to the point. This class is well structured and the scope is clearly laid out at the beginning of the lesson and each topic has one to two videos to support it. The teacher speaks at a comfortable peace for me to be able to jot down some notes as well as watch what's happening on the screen. I particularly enjoyed the videos where real world examples are demystified. The teacher goes through how every effect and transition was achieved and tools used. Lastly, there is not jibber jabber or pointless jokes or an awkward back story or terrible long introductions of the history of after effects or motion graphics. This course is to the point. It can be completed in a day (that includes a few hours of practice and the final project)"
"Great course! Best part was the breakdown from projects. :)"
"I learned a lot from these videos. I never thought the animation that I did before could be way more interesting."
"This is a very good course. The teacher is very nice, well spoken, easy to understand (even if English isn't your first language, as it's my case). I will say that this course it's not for beginners really, because everything happens very fast, so it would be hard to understand if it's the first time working on After Effects. But, overall, you will get a lot of info here on animation and video explainers. You'd have to go and practice, practice, practice, to get to the level of this instructor! Thank you for a great course. :)"
