Description

Why everything gotta be so scary??

In this class we’ll be getting comfortable with After Effects’ core animation properties. We’ll be diving into the transform tools and using them to animate a little bug friend bouncing about a scene.

These tools are the basis of all animation in After Effects. In learning how to manipulate these properties, you will have the foundational understanding to take on bigger and more complex animations after this class.

I, Alyssa Smedley, AKA Horrible Horris as known on TikTok for my After Effects Hawt Tips, will be your teacher on this grand adventure.

This class is for those folks stepping into After Effects for the very first time. Some previous experience with Adobe Creative Suite is recommended but absolutely not required.

At the end of this class, you will come away with sweet new skills in animation, a confidence to use Adobe After Effects and a short animated piece ready to show off to your bestie!

While I will be providing you with assets to work with, you are encouraged to use your own to make your project more authentic to your professional (or personal!) practice.

This class is designed to be fun, light-hearted and to break down the intimidating barrier that is the After Effects interface. Join me as I share how the big scary AE monster can be turned into a piece of cake.

Instructor's Courses

Hello, I'm Alyssa, aka Horrible Horris.

I'm an animator, illustrator, motion designer and general creative dabbler!

My day jobs include, Motion Graphics Artist at ABC News, Teaching at both RMIT and Swinburne and co-directing a small production company where I head up visual development. This particular role has had me turn a hand at many different facets of the animation process, including character design, storyboarding, 2D and stop-motion animating, directing and even a spot of hand modelling! You can find out more about our company and what we do at piratesizeproductions.com

Before I got here though, I was a fulltime Motion Designer and regular creative freelancer.

When I'm not creating for work, I am creating for leisure. Most recently (and probably most proudly) I made a crochet wombat for my two nephews, featuring a little bum flap, filled with little cube poos.
