What you should know before watching this course

Before you watch this course, I'd like to give you a little bit of background information. We're going to draw upon skills for both Photoshop and After Effects, and by no means do you need to be an expert in both applications, but you're going to want to feel comfortable in each. We're going to use about 5% of the power of After Effects, 3D cameras, some lights, some particles. There's a lot more to After Effects, so, don't feel that you need to be super in-depth expert level. But being comfortable is important. In Photoshop, we'll draw upon selections, masking, and tools like clone and stamp, and content aware fill. This'll be to prepare the files. Now, in this course I will teach you all of these fundamental skills, but if you've never used Photoshop or After Effects before, I'd encourage you to take some other courses in the library to get up to speed. Additionally, this is a technique that draws upon several skills. You will get a lot more out of this class if you watch it in a linear fashion. Now, feel free to skip ahead if there's something you're really interested in, but to get the best results, I really recommend that you take a look at this course from beginning to end, so, you have all of the related skills to achieve professional quality.
