Course Description
Apple Motion 3 takes the complexity out of 3D by extending the 2D tools you already use. VTC author, Brian Culp, will walk novice Motion 3 users through an intuitive approach to motion graphics creation and manipulation. After completing the course, users will have an understanding of how easy it is to create and change complex motion graphics designs through simple, drag-and-drop operations, or by sliding a fader back and forth.
