Good course. I wish that there was a fully completed project with ALL explanations included start to finish.... That would make the course better. But discussing the plug-in Animation Composer (which I didn't know about before this course) - - was invaluable and worth the price of the course for that one tip alone.

Like this course! Now I can set up an explainer video. It is well organized. Just in one hour, you know how a lot more about how to do your project.

I needed to create an explainer video fast for a job application. I love the workflow in this video, very clear and right to the point. I had a hunch what the animation composer is about...speeds up my work. Thanks for making this class.

When I saw that the course was only an hour I thought the chances of learning anything substantial was not likely but I was SO WRONG.I learned a lot! The instructor is straight and to the point and easy to understand.Well done!
