AI Video & Motion Graphics Bootcamp

Learn how to organize and import footage, exporting options, how to use the Timeline, create titles, work with PSDs, use audio tracks, and more. Then, dive into more advanced features including multicam editing, color correction, speeding up footage, and stop-motion loops.

Learn more advanced editing techniques with Premiere Pro in this hands-on class and kick your video editing skills up a notch. Create custom transitions, light leaks, and other visual effects. Work more with audio, edit action sequences, and work with vertical video.

Get comfortable with After Effects in this introductory course. You'll learn how to animate text and graphics to create dynamic title sequences, TV content, and standalone videos. You will also start learning how to add special effects and build 3D objects.

• Work with 3D layers, cameras, and lights to create dynamic scenes
  
• Create and animate custom shape layers using the Pen Tool
• Develop advanced text animations and save presets for future use
• Optimize animations with expressions and wire parameters for complexity
• Enhance audio integration by adding markers and applying audio effects
