I came into this course with a little bit of motion tracking and compositing knowledge. I definitely learned some new techniques in AE and Mocha from this course that I would apply in my projects. Overall, I liked that the lessons were fairly quick and that each lesson had slightly different approaches. I think there was unnecessary time spent on setting up the projects; while playing the lessons from the start of each video, I had mine completely ready to go (including asset organization) from nothing within seconds of the instructor preparing everything. In turn, it felt like other areas were more rushed where I would have liked to hear more introduction and explanation of the reason for choosing each step in the process before just jumping in. I was familiar with many of the effects being applied during the compositing stage but I think a more thorough explanation of what each effect is intended to do would be useful for beginners instead of just showing what the instructor was doing with them. I also felt like some of the lessons could have gone a little further to make the overall comp even better looking, like adding reflections to comped surfaces or ensuring that repeated patterns weren't obvious in comped foreground elements. I did some of this myself for my own added value but think it would have been helpful to demonstrate to beginners and people unaware of some of those more refined compositing techniques. All in all, I recommend this to people familiar with AE that are at the beginning and early intermediate stages of motion tracking and compositing.

Yep I am loving this course so far!

Will Bartlett is an excellent teacher. The information contained in this course is essential in mastering After Effects. You will not be disappointed.

Great class, and I really appreciate that it was updated to reflect changes to Mocha AE made in CC 2019. The changes made are pretty minor, but other tutorials had left me frustrated and confused when the process being described didn't work for my software. I only wish the instructor had gone over a couple of more use cases, such as tracking an object to a person who is moving along with a moving camera. I'm still trying to get a sense of when to use Mocha AE, when to use the 3D tracker, when to use the motion tracker, and when to use warp stabilizer VFX. There's so much overlap in terms of what they're able to achieve that it can feel a bit confusing.

Quelque fois, les commandes utilises ne sont pas trs visibles. Le passage est trop rapide pour suivre chaque tape.Mais globalement c'est trs instructif et j'ai appris beaucoup.

I learned the basics of mocha and i have never worked on mocha before. This tutorial made it easy.

Very good course for immersion with tracking motion. Very well detailed. Also those who have very little experience with After Effects will be comfortable with this course.

Although I have been doing this for quite some time, this course helped me out a great deal. Makes a very good reference to go back and look at.

Good course, but a bit short. Needs to be longer, with more examples.

Great good course on getting started with with compositing and motion tracking in After Effects! Thank you!

Very easy to follow course. Learned a lot from it. Thank you.

The instructor covered a lot of information in a short period of time. I could easily rewind and review info I missed the first time. Tracking and compositing are a little intimidating for a new-comer like me. That is why I am glad the instructor's approach was short and sweet; My head didn't explode.?
