If you’re completely new to motion design and ready to dive into the world of animation, this course is the perfect starting point. Taught by designer and motion graphics expert Hongshu Guo, this beginner-friendly course walks you through everything you need to know to open After Effects with confidence and start creating animations from scratch.

You’ll learn how to navigate the interface, organize your files, and build your first composition using key animation tools like position, scale, and opacity. Through step-by-step lessons and a hands-on project, you’ll understand how animation works and how to bring basic objects to life on screen. By the end of the course, you’ll know how to animate simple sequences professionally and efficiently using core After Effects tools. Whether you're pursuing motion graphics as a hobby or a career, this course lays the solid foundation you need to build your skills and create with confidence.
