In this one day VFX Suite course, you will learn how to get the very best out of the plugin to use it in your visual effects workflows. You will create light wraps, heat blurs, optical glows, custom lens flares, reflections, displacement maps and much more. The full breakdown of the course is below. VFX Suite is a part of the Red Giant family of plugins and integrates fully with After Effects and has a limited capacity with Premiere Pro. If you're unsure if this will work with your system, you can CHECK COMPATIBILITY here.
VFX Suite offers powerful and realistic results at the click of a button that would take you hours to create in After Effects manually.
We work extensively in partnership with Maxon on our Red Giant course curriculums, ensuring that you the student, are put into the best possible position when studying with us.
Finally, we offer six months of email support on all of our courses. If you get stuck on something (as long as it's in your course outline), drop us an email, and your trainer will get back to you with a solution.

We always have a maximum of six delegates in our classrooms which will give you more one on one time with the instructor.
You are encouraged to ask us examples of how to do things that you need to learn for you role. We try and tailor a portion of the day to accommodate this, so that everybody leaves with relevant knowledge suited to their job.
Our trainers are all Maxon certified and more importantly, have worked in relevant roles using all of the software they teach. We check all of our trainers credentials thoroughly before we employ them, to give you the student, the very best learning experience.
