- When putting together this course, I designed it for somebody who has a basic familiarity with Photoshop. Now, I'm gonna assume that you are already at at least a beginner level and you want to jump up to intermediate to advanced. Well, that's what the guru series is all about. We've got a lot of techniques to cover, and along the way, if you find that anything is left out, well don't worry. You can explore some of the more foundation material available here in the online library, but if you work in motion graphics, visual effects, or as a video editor who turns to after effects as a toolbox, you should find the contents of this class quite useful.
