Motion Graphics and Data Visualization with After Effects

About Course

This course is designed for beginners—no prior experience in VFX Compositing or motion graphics is needed. We’ll start from the basics, breathing life into simple icons with After Effects.

Together, we’ll tackle real-world projects, connecting Excel to After Effects to turn dull spreadsheet data into engaging visuals. We’ll explore lighting, cameras, masking, and the importance of sound in your presentations. Plus, we’ll cover exporting your work for YouTube, PowerPoint, social media, and even creating animated GIFs.

You’ll have hands-on projects to build your VFX skills and add to your portfolio. I’ve provided a cheat sheet and exercise files so you can follow along, and I’ll save my files step-by-step for easy comparison in case you need help.

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s start creating!
