Reviews for After Effects Classes Online

After Effects Classes Online are rated 4.7 stars based on 12 verified reviews from actual CourseHorse.com purchasers.

  • Chad was wonderful! Very clear instruction, great attitude, and a lot of fun!
  • I took a full-day After Effects course with Al and it was great. I had previously attempted to learn After Effects on my own, but struggled to grasp how to navigate the software. This class was a great intro to the interface and covered an array of key animating concepts. I was the only participant, which allowed Al to focus on specific effects I was interested in learning. His explanations were clear and he took time to review examples and identify the effects in use. Due to time constraints, I wasn't able to practice in-depth, but this course laid a great foundation to develop my skills.
  • Amazing class taught by Mr.Mark Chandler. The 3 jam-packed days were just a steller foundation on what's possible with creating in After Effects and Premiere. The class was a mixture of informational lessons and real-world perspectives. I feel more confident tackling more AE projects now.
  • Chad was a great professor and really dove in depth on the topics we covered. And the curriculum wasn’t super rigid either, we did lots of exploring and playing around which was helpful. It’s always great to see someone else’s process. It definitely helped that I was the only student too, got to pick his brain more than I might have in a larger class. I appreciate him still doing the class for one student!
  • Learned so much! I was afraid of working in after effects because at first glance, its a very complicated/intimidating program. But, Laura was very clear, super helpful, and explained everything well!
  • Great course with plenty of hands-on learning. Anthony Bueno is a fantastic instructor. The facility was new, with state-of-the-art machines and up-to-date software. I would highly recommend Lumenbrite training!
  • I don't think the experience could have been any better. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. I took a lot away from this class even though I have been playing around in After Effects for about a year. Anthony really helped me build a stronger foundation for the future.
  • The absolute best After Effects training I have ever attended. Excellent work flow and classroom/lab instruction.
