I really enjoyed this course. I would class myself as a beginner in After Effects and admit that a few elements of the class were beyond my current understanding of the software. But Hongshu creates a standard of work that I aspire to in the future. I have a long way to go, but Hongshu’s classes are among the clearest and enjoyable classes online.

The best class I’ve taken so far. Not only did it teach me the tutorial itself, but it helped me think about secondary animation that help to level up a scene. This is something I’ve been lacking. I feel proud of this piece and can’t wait to design my own product and copy for my portfolio.
