Classes
We teach occasional After Effects hands-on classes. Custom classes are available and are popular with TV station design groups as well as boutique design studios. If you are a training facility needing an Advanced After Effects class, please contact us.
Custom Class
If you have a group of students and access to appropriate training facilities, we may be able to work with you to arrange private training for your company. This may be a more economical solution then sending several members of your staff out of town, and the topics covered can be customized to your needs as well as the number of days. Contact Trish if you are interested in arranging a custom class for up to 8 students. Please put "Custom Class Request" in the email subject line.
