“I was blown away by the depth of instruction that CM provides in this course. He really goes above and beyond to make this course worthwhile for a busy VFX artist that would like to increase his/her value as an VFX professional. A couple shoutouts: the lessons on Time Remapping/Speed Graph tool was eye-opening and the entire section on Expressions really got me excited - both will elevate my game considerable. I highly recommend this course for anyone that earns money with motion graphics or wants to earn money with motion graphics. Thanks for making this knowledge available to all of us, CM!”
