Topics include:
"I knew very little about After Effects before starting this course other than I really needed to learn it. This course exceeded my expectations greatly, as I found the hands-on, in-class learning environment to be a great way to learn sophisticated software. I now feel confident to take my own self-teaching to another level now that the intimidation I previously had is gone. The Training Connection company was very welcoming and the computer systems were great! It would be better if the footage files we had were of better HD or even 4K quality. Thanks!"
Stephon Litwinczuk | Lumenbrite"McKinley was amazing! So enthusiastic and one of the most tech-savvy people I've ever met. What a boss! Thanks so much!"
Bel Downie | YouTube Music"McKinley was so helpful and knowledgeable. I come from a print background and a lot of the After Effects concepts were new and challenging but she made it fun and accessible. I'm excited to use can't recommend this class enough."
Haruna Madono | Lumenbrite"The instructor has a very relatable and easy teaching style. He never talks over your head about topics and provides easy to understand explanations to questions. He's very passionate and enthusiastic about the material which makes the class more interesting."
Jeff Baur | Private"McKinley was absolutely the best. She explained everything so well and was patient and spent time answering any and all questions we had. I absolutely loved taking her class and felt like I benefitted a lot from her experience and teaching style. I feel super strong with After Effects now and it's because she laid such a solid foundation."
