Question.01
What are your strengths
as a Motion Designer?


I like to grab people's attention with unique jaw-dropping animations and creative content that's both fresh and fun. I also enjoy creating squishy, sentimental animations that viewers can relate to and that help bring out certain emotions. Join me for a class where you can enjoy learning motion graphic techniques by practicing eye-catching design exercises.
Question.02
What is the goal of this Class?


This class focuses on creating stylish, three-dimensional 2.5D animations with just the After Effects basics. By going over keyboard shortcuts and basic tools in class, beginner motion graphic designers can start making animated illustrations without external plugins and complicated expressions.
Question.03
Why should I choose this class on Coloso?


While fluidly working on design and animation, we will go over the entire work process—step-by-step. Unlike other tool tutorials that focus only on techniques, this class will help you capture the details. By practicing 6 design examples, you will learn additional features, effects, and personal tips. I'll also teach you how to use and apply the practice exercises to your own designs.
Question.04
Who can benefit from this class?


Beginners will be able to create different design samples with various design tools and functions on After Effects. I've included personal tips and insights throughout the class that will help you build a sturdy foundation of 2.5D motion graphics.
