Leigh Williamson

Illustrator & Animator

“I'm more confident, more relevant, more equipped, better connected and close to my goals since School of Motion entered my life.”

Irina

Great investment, would recommend :)

“I appreciate how well-structured and diverse the courses are. Videos, PDFs, podcasts, weekly review session, links to further resources... and the Teaching Assistants are very encouraging and helpful. Homework assignments are never boring and you have total freedom in how to approach them as long as you incorporate what you've learned in the given lesson. It was very much a demanding journey but I feel I am so much better off now that I'm on the other side!”

Emma Elisabeth Petersson

Motion Designer

"I recently started my dream job and I would have 100% never gotten here without taking the School of Motion courses that I did."

Andriana

Incredible experience...

“I don't have the right words to explain how valuable School of Motion was for me. I went in skeptical because I took courses on other platforms and felt like I got little to nothing out of them. SOM was completely different. The aspect of community was there, the Teaching Assistant was extremely helpful and a sense of accountability was there, and most importantly the content and quality of the actual teaching was there.”

don't just take our word for it

Animation Bootcamp changed my life.

This is not hyperbole...Animation Bootcamp changed my life. I now understood curves and how the graph and speed editors actually worked. I saw the value of shape layers instead of just using solids with masks. It totally changed the way I approached projects moving forward.

I learned more in Design Bootcamp than...

Honestly, I learned more in Design Bootcamp than I did during my five and a half years of college... When you’re a young designer, you see things you want to create but you simply don’t know how. There’s a disconnect that is so hard to push past.

The Networking Aspect Was Life-Changing

The networking aspect of School of Motion was life-changing; meeting other people who are also serious about their motion careers will never not be valuable. The best thing you can do for your motion graphics career is making motion designer friends!

Completely Changed My Career And My Life

Honestly, School of Motion has completely changed my career and my life. Before I discovered School of Motion, I was trying to teach myself After Effects. On top of that, I was working full time with awful hours at a job in a different field that I really didn’t enjoy.

Clients Who Recognized Me From School of Motion

I started picking up a few freelance clients who recognized me from School of Motion.‍ My wife eventually gave me the final push to quit my day job and look to be an animator full-time.
