After Effects Bootcamp Online introduces the tools motion designers use every day in Adobe After Effects. You animate with keyframes, control what appears on screen with masks, track mattes, and blending modes, and bring type to life with text animators. Layered artwork from Photoshop and Illustrator is imported and animated, so you learn to put existing design assets in motion instead of starting every piece from scratch.

You also get a first look at expressions, which automate motion so you don't have to set every keyframe by hand. The course covers rendering files for the web, social platforms, and broadcast, and shows how to move compositions between After Effects and Premiere Pro using a round-trip workflow. You finish with several polished motion graphics pieces.

Refined over many years for an optimal learning experience

This training will definitely help my career. I was able to show my supervisor and co-workers what the software programs have to offer and what I'm capable of when the time comes for creating that construction design team in the future. I was able to provide documentation to my employer that the money spent was well worth it. The training I received at VDCI will become an asset moving forward.
