After Effects: Create an Intro Video / Bumper for your Brand (Udemy.com)

Great course! Phil presents students with several different techniques and ideas to create video bumpers in After Effects. I have taken several courses in Premiere Pro and After Effects from Phil and these short and specific courses are both a great way to get started on a specific project and a perfect opportunity to brush up on your skills!

This course is 8 years old and uses the very first version of After Effects CC. The style of motion graphics is outdated and even amateurishly colorful. The instructor doesn't follow a script and makes a few mishaps here and there. I've taken other courses from Phil Ebiner that pertain to After Effects and he constantly uses the same concepts when it comes to shapes animations. I liked the introductory videos that tell you about the importance of branding and how to approach the creation of one's video bumper. Also, the videos are shot in 720p.

Very bad subtitles (seriousness is strictly related to these details in my opinion), bad explanations (very few explanations on technical details, commands typed on the keyboard too quickly, impossibile to understand if you have not a good knowledge about AE)

作り方を詳しく紹介してくれている。ちょっと速いところもあるが、どのキーを押して、そうなったのか、説明が欲しかったです。

Great content, well presented. Just an idea that might be helpful... you might consider occasionally adding text onscreen that emphasizes something that you are doing on screen. A good example would be keyboard shortcuts, where when you mention one (often in passing), you could have a little text blurb that describes it. Something akin to "Ctrl + C = Copy"

This is a fairly long After Effects tutorial where the listener follows along with the guide (similar to YouTube tutorials), as opposed to a class atmosphere where a student completes creative projects analyzed later by a teacher. I recommend this tutorial for those who are still a little new to After Effects; not an advanced class. I was a little surprised that some mistakes and rendering times were not edited out, since the instructor also teaches video editing. Additionally, he kind of has a monodrone voice that often sounds like he is bored (not a good voice for narration under a video). I am, however, thankful and proud to have a piece to put in my portfolio that I would not have been able to create on my own.

Course was easy to follow and instructor has a grasp of the subject matter. He is young and if he continues with after effects, he may someday reach the level of Andrew Cramer from video copilot

With Clear Camera work, excellent audio and a well paced instruction. This course really does teach you some useful and inspiring effects using AE. For those of you without the latest After Effects, I was successful in reproducing most of the effects in version CS2. (With a little help from Google!) I would recommend this course to anyone looking to get into motion graphics, or indeed anyone looking to create a video intro.

Loved to look over samples of REAL intro, including mine, Dublin Academy! It think it was important to show real video intros to real people, other Udemy instructors, being made instead of the XYZ Company. Good thinking Phil!

As with his other video courses, Philip has tackled a topic that is very tough for most online folks who usually quickly look to outsource this type of work. He is a very easy to listen to instructor. After taking this class, you should be well on your way to doing a goo d part of your into work on your own. Jump in now!
