Advanced Adobe After Effects Course

What you will learn

This course is for those already using After Effects to expand your knowledge and explore many new possibilities. We'll look at keyframes and animation curves in detail, and how to get better control of your animation to improve look and feel. You'll explore more intricate effects combinations to create stunning high-quality visuals and use more advanced techniques to combine, cut out and manipulate layers and compositions. We will introduce you to expressions (small snippets of maths and code) to accelerate your workflow and automate animation tasks. And we'll also look at using the After Effects 3D camera system, to enhance your animation and expand your creative possibilities.

You'll also learn how to set up customised workspaces, so the tools and features you need to use regularly are just one click away. Customisable workspaces are great for teams or families, as you'll learn how to create multiple different workspaces that you can save for each user.

We also dedicate a portion of day two for you to ask us real-life questions, so you gain knowledge of doing something with the software relevant to you. This course is ideal for those already using After Effects, and want to start using its more advanced features. For the full technical breakdown, please see further down the page.

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.

Please note that this course is NOT suitable for beginners of After Effects. You must have already taken our Beginners After Effects course or know all of the things covered in it.

Most of our Adobe courses come with a free Adobe authorised training manual for your reference during and after the training. The courses where no manual is available come with comprehensive notes for you to take away with you. 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 Adobe certified (Adobe Certified Instructors) 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.

About the town...

Twickenham is of course famous for its stadium, home to the England national rugby team. But it is also a town that sits on a beautiful stretch of the River Thames, between Richmond and Kingston.

There are many bars, restaurants and pubs in the area providing Twickenham with a very lively night life. Some of the pubs are literally on the banks of the Thames, with two of the Royal Parks, (Richmond and Bushy) also located in fairly close proximity. Eel Pie Island, home to some very famous creatives, is also in the area and accessible via a footbridge across the river.
