    I am still at the beginning but wow Mark makes it so easy to understand and deliver something in barely 20 min when you've never touched AE before!

    So far I'm finding this to be a helpful introductory tour of some practical features of After Effects with a sound foundation of explaining the program's purposes, capabilities and limits in a way that a relative beginner can absorb. I think that having experience with other Adobe products (e.g. some of the mainstays like Photoshop and Illustrator) and having dabbled with Premiere has also helped to make this course even easier for me to understand.
