Advanced After Effects: Coding for Motion Design Information

Take your motion design skills to the next level by learning to code expressions with JavaScript to create complex animation rigs with style

Expressions are snippets of code in JavaScript that allow you to create animations that would be impossible to design manually, and they’re one of the most efficient motion design tools in Adobe After Effects. Motion designer Desmond Du has been using expressions while collaborating with the NBA, Turner Classic Movies, Adobe, and Cartoon Network.

In this online course, Desmond teaches you how to code expressions to create complex animation rigs with style and ease. Learn to use a variety of techniques to make a series of abstract geometric animations that will be assembled and composite into the final project.
