Adobe After Effects training courses

After Effects is used for creating sophisticated moving images and cinematic visual effects (e.g. ground-breaking motion graphics and blockbuster visual effects) for use in theaters, living rooms, and on personal computers and mobile devices. You can mix footage of any size and format, photographs, 3D renders, text, vector artwork, and music – and make it all come alive.

For those new to Adobe After Effects our Introduction course content covers the basics (creating motion graphics and visual effects in 2d and 3d). More experienced users should look to our Intermediate course for the best techniques to be used with animation, layering and masks.
