Adobe’s AfterEffects
DATES: Tuesdays, April 21, 28 May 5, 12 from 7:00 – 9:00 PM TIME: 7:00 – 9:00 PM
Incorporate a stylized title, motion effect or animated sequence in your video piece. Adobe AfterEffects is a sophisticated, creative program for motion graphics, animation and other special effects. In this hands-on workshop learn how to integrate these effects with live video using Final Cut Pro. Participants should be Mac-comfortable, have worked with Final Cut Pro or other editing programs. Come prepared to work on an idea for a ten-second piece by bringing a still image, a piece of music and/or a QuickTime movie to work with in class. Participants may arrange to have their pieces digitized or scanned prior to the start of class.
