Learn how to easily set up complex-looking text animations in Adobe After Effects.
Let's be real—as a motion designer, you're going to be animating text. A lot. And while After Effects has some seriously powerful text tools under the hood, diving into that engine can feel like staring into the void.
That's where Adam Bennett comes in. He'll walk you through building text animations that actually look complex (but aren't), giving your motion work that extra spark it needs. You'll pick up practical techniques and insider tricks that'll have you animating type like a pro on your very next project.
