Simply the best animation course out there to help aspiring motion graphic artists

I had been on the fence on whether or not to take this class for a while. After taking the class, I wish I had done this sooner. The class lessons were clear, informative and well organized with each lesson building off the prior. I thought the Teacher Assistants did a great job providing advice and encouragement.

I like my experience! I just wish I had more time to make better my homework. But having a job in day and then studying at night it was a little hard for me.

The tutorials were very instructive and the assignments were beneficial. The markers on the videos helped a lot. Having a TA helped to keep me motivated--knowing someone was actually watching and reviewing my work.

TA is not helpful as I thought it would be. Instructions seem not clear and projects feels like are outdated

School of Motion is a great resource for professionals looking to move forward into motion graphics, designers trying to get out of a rut, students seeking more intense focus on design and animation than they may get in a traditional school setting. As a prof. graphic designer with previous animation experience, I enrolled in the Design for Animation Bootcamp to get back on track in the animation world in order to satisfy current client requests and to bring in new mograph and video projects. This course was very intensive—much like having real-world projects thrown at you; it ended up feeling like I had a new client along with my existing projects. The projects force you to think differently than you may be doing in school or at work, and offer insights and new methods for working in Photoshop and Illustrator. Within the first week, I learned new techniques that I immediately put to work on client projects. I'll admit to being totally exhausted between SOM and my billable jobs, but it was completely worth it. I'm planning on enrolling in the Animation Bootcamp in the spring of 2023, and possibly some of the shorter duration classes focusing on Cinema 4D and illustration. Great school—reminds me of School of Visual Arts which I attended long ago. I highly recommend it if you're thinking of getting into the wide-open field of animation.

Since the very first moment I watched a tutorial on School of Motion's YouTube Channel, I knew that would be a great experience if someday I'd take a course. I was right! The methods, the TAs and the community are excellent, the classes have a great structure and the homeworks always surprised me on how quick my skills were improving. A huge thank you to everyone in SOM that made it possible!

Best decision ever. Intense 8 weeks of learning with head banging hours of working on new skills. But in the end grew up to be way besser then at the beginning.
