Do you have a passion for design, animation, and motion graphics? Use After Effects to make your own motion graphic designs. In this fun hands-on summer course in NYC, you'll learn how to navigate the After Effects workspace, then dive right into basic animation concepts and processes. From there, the program will move on to more complex techniques like title and text animation, 3D layer animation, and motion tracking. This summer camp is suitable for complete beginners without previous experience in animation or Adobe After Effects.
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.
Became proficient in Java programming and computer science topics and knew nothing before. Would recommend!
