    Kalika was a fantastic instructor bringing patience and humor to every lesson. Thanks to her, I have a strong grasp on the topics covered, am confident in my skills and capability to delve further into the app. Kalika is the rare teacher who goes the extra mile for her students because she's happy to. One suggestion note is that there are a few lessons that start off with importing or setting up in more than one way for the sake of learning how different modes function. I think the class would benefit from taking time in between the demonstrations to practice that part before continuing into the bulk of the lesson - I found that I forgot what the take-away was from that initial portion of the lesson by the time the demonstration was over, and conducting that portion on my own created an interruption between the demonstration and going through the section on my own.

    First off, the instructor was awesome, but I think there are 2 areas you can clean up: • I feel the 'how to' guide was lacking in readability and overall design - as a basic introduction to AE I feel there should have been more/better visuals • I think there was just too much content to cram in 3 days All in all, I had a great experience - button up the two above points and it's gold! Thanks, Daniel

    I had been trying to learn After Effects on my own for a while, but it wasn't until I decided to take the course through Noble Desktop that things really started to make sense for me. Now I feel that I have a solid foundation and am more excited than before about learning After Effects. As much as I enjoyed this class, I only wish that there was a second part to this course or something that would take you into some of the more intermediate/advanced techniques with track mattes, rotoscoping, null objects etc.

    After Effects seemed really intimidating but after this class I was able to jump right into projects without hesitation. I was able to use my new skills the first day after class ended on a business pitch, which we won!

Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi there! It start at a beginner level. Students can expect it to be an intensive course that covers a lot of material. And it is highly recommended to have some Photoshop and/or Illustrator experience before taking the class. Hope this helps.
