We’re back, and continuing with sharing movies we created for earlier versions of After Effects that are no longer being published by Lynda or LinkedInLearning. We found that many of those movies were still relevant to the current version, so we want to share them to help round out your knowledge of Adobe After Effects.

The movies below are designed to get you up and running quickly with it, cover the main parameters, and what to do when it doesn’t work using the default settings.
