Course Description
Are you interested in video editing, visual effects, and motion graphics? Then there's no getting around Adobe After Effects!
This much in advance: This program is so incredibly powerful that it's impossible to cover every angle explicitly. So why am I still confidently calling this course a comprehensive A-Z Course? I am convinced that I will provide you with so much knowledge, tools, and understanding of effects and contexts that you will be able to master your individual challenges of all kinds in a solution-oriented way.
Of course, the content of this course deals with all theories, so you will be able to find your way around the user interface and the inexhaustible variety of parameters and possibilities. Apart from that, to put it bluntly, we'll go through impressively spectacular project examples that will encourage you to get involved and hopefully get you as excited about After Effects as I have been myself for more than 15 years.
Among other things, we will look at the basic functions, effects, and import and export settings. You will learn about keyframes, text animations, and expressions. You'll simulate your own car accident, we'll extract music data so you can animate your videos to music, you'll integrate text into real landscapes, remove objects from filmed scenes, create a 3D cell phone model without additional plug-ins, and much, much more.
For you, there is not only a handout with the most important shortcuts and expressions but also downloadable video material, which I have recorded by drone and GoPro, especially for this course.
If you are passionate about video creation and want to learn and understand the best program on the global market, Adobe After Effects, then this course might be for you. If you are willing to apply your knowledge to projects through fascinating, action-packed examples in a way that will stick with you, then this course is definitely for you!

About me
Hi, I'm Peter!
Besides my job as a consultant with a focus on digitalization, I've been fascinated by the possibilities of the world wide web to offer products & services of various kinds since my school days.
Starting with a gaming app allowing you to bet on the outcome of sports events against friends for stakes like cocktails or ice cream, I launched various online stores over the years and now own my personal party hat brand with its own warehouse. Sales structures like print-on-demand or drop shipping are just as familiar to me through A-Z self-creation & many years of experience as professional and passionate work with Excel VBA and the video editing programs Adobe After Effects or Sony Vegas.
I would like to share this knowledge with you. It is very important to me to neither use fictitious numbers, ideas or outlooks, nor the get-rich-quick-idea to attract more course participants, but to deliver added value through real practical experience, simplifying for you to achieve through work and passion, what I have also achieved.
Of course, I am more than happy if you are willing to build up passive income in a professional, sustainable way, for example, by applying the knowledge gained from one of my courses.
I am ready to help you at any time in all possible concerns that fall under my expert area. So contact me without hesitation either in the comment sections of the courses or outside via direct message if you have a question.
I am also grateful for any suggestions for improvement of either a general nature or desired section additions - because my goal is to always offer you the best courses for your trust placed in me!
