What this course is (and what it isn’t!) (AAEFR_24)

Important information about this course

We’d love to create a course that’s suitable for everyone, everywhere, all at once, but it’s not possible to please everyone. Please review the information below to maximise your chances of making the most of this course.

• This course is for BEGINNERS to Adobe After Effects but you will need existing basic computer / Windows skills to follow along.
• It focuses on a single, practical project of creating a zooming movie title sequence.
• It uses Adobe After Effects, which is paid-for software. A free trial version is available for new users, after which there are various ways to subscribe.

• If you’re already proficient with After Effects, you won’t benefit from this course.
• This is not a general introduction to motion graphics – This course focuses on creating and animating text over a video background.
• We’re not going to cover every feature of After Effects.
• We are not the developer of After Effects and cannot offer support with it.
