Learn the After Effects Interface
Join Jake for a personal tour of After Effects, tailored to the features and skills a working editor needs most. Learn the basics of importing images and video, and how to create elements from scratch directly in AE.
Move Beyond Templates
Design and animate a stylish lower third and full-screen title graphic by creating keyframes, adjusting them to create snappy movements, and learning essential tricks to add appealing visual details.
By The Numbers
After Effects is great for visualizing data - like you’re probably already being asked to do! Work smarter (not harder) by leveraging tools like Parenting and Essential Properties to create complexity without breaking a sweat.
Get Yourself On Track
Tracking graphics directly into footage is a powerful technique, and probably easier than you think! Spice up the shot with stylish transition effects and add a dynamic speed ramp with Time Remapping.
The Fix Is In
Utilize AI-powered features to add that final polish. Easily remove unwanted objects from footage using Content-Aware Fill and tuck graphics behind foreground elements with the Roto Brush.
Put It All Together
Step up that workflow by learning a variety of approaches to exporting your animations or importing them directly into Premiere Pro. Stay flexible, adaptive, and ready for whatever your project demands!
