Looking to expand your knowledge of Adobe After Effects’ powerful yet somewhat mysterious Shape Layers? Then this is the class for you!

 


Intermediate After Effects: Shape Layers takes a closer look at some of the amazing animation possibilities inherent in this often neglected aspect of the After Effects workflow. Sure, Illustrator might be the best way to create vector graphics and illustrations, but Shape Layers in After Effects are the best way to get them moving!


Perfect for Graphic Designers, Illustrators, or beginning to intermediate Motion Designers with some experience with After Effects, this class will expose students to the amazing power and versatility of After Effects Shape Layers as a tool for animation and motion design.


Taught by Morgan Williams, an animator with over 25 years of professional experience and almost 10 years of experience as an animation instructor, this class is packed with professional techniques and practices to make your workflow smart and efficient.


If you are new to Adobe After Effects, it is highly recommended that you first complete Morgan’s Intro To After Effects series before taking this more intermediate After Effects class. For this class, it is assumed that students already understand:
