  Laura is extremely patient and detailed, and was super helpful in really having me understand how to navigate After Effects as a beginner. Highly recommend!

  The course really introduces a lot of concepts in an organized way so that by the end of class you are very comfortable with navigating in After Effects and applying effects, and keyframe animations.

  Great and very helpful. I was lucky to be the only one in the class because it's a crazy complicated program. Highly recommend!

  Learned so much! I was afraid of working in After Effects because at first glance, it's a very complicated/intimidating program. But, Laura was very clear, super helpful, and explained everything well!

  Learned a lot in one day! This was a great basic After Effects class. Taking screenshots and notes is helpful so it's easier to remember everything, since it's a lot to take in as After Effects has a complex UI. You really need a class for this program, because it isn't intuitive for the most part.

  Came into After Effects class extremely intimidated to learn the program. It's a must to know to support a Brand team. The class was so well taught, everything paced and explained. Small size allows for comfort asking even the smallest questions and to leave feeling empowered to start using the program. Even had a moment to review real-life projects and get immediate insight on what I can start designing.

  Very good for learning with no experience or for filling in the gaps from self teaching AfterEffects. Wish there were a little more complex concepts taught other than just moving shapes around on 2D space but you can only teach so much in a day. Got a little too quick towards the end when exporting projects and learning different compressions so it felt arbitrary to even explain. But overall good class and great teacher, perfect pace for learning from scratch and if you need to learn specifically how to make gifs and logos

  Very much enjoyed this class and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn something new within Adobe programs. Stuart is a great teacher and would gladly take another class he teaches. I recommend that you come into this class each week with the full intent to take away something from it. Some weeks are more rewarding than others depending on what you want to take away. If you’re a student that doesn’t pay attention, doesn’t do the homework (or at least attempt it) and comes in late, Stuart won’t baby you. You’ll be behind, have wasted your own time and money, and might as well watch a youtube tutorial. I find that the program’s fundamentals are challenging despite going into the class knowing ai, psd, and indd. But, Stuart breaks it down with understandable real-life scenarios. I will say he goes a little fast due to the nature of the material, but he stops to check in each student. Regardless, his pace keeps you on your toes and he is effective in the content he shares. Regarding homework, it seems from the class structure it’s a mix of students and working professionals looking for extra education. There isn’t much pressure to do the homework in a way he wants it, just to do the homework and make it what you want as long as it sticks to the syllabus. Stuart makes the 3-hour course fly by because the class is filled to the max great material. I really feel like I’ve learned a lot and plan on taking more classes at Pratt.

  Kalika was a fantastic instructor bringing patience and humor to every lesson. Thanks to her, I have a strong grasp on the topics covered, am confident in my skills and capability to delve further into the app. Kalika is the rare teacher who goes the extra mile for her students because she's happy to. One suggestion note is that there are a few lessons that start off with importing or setting up in more than one way for the sake of learning how different modes function. I think the class would benefit from taking time in between the demonstrations to practice that part before continuing into the bulk of the lesson - I found that I forgot what the take-away was from that initial portion of the lesson by the time the demonstration was over, and conducting that portion on my own created an interruption between the demonstration and going through the section on my own.

  I really enjoyed this course! I've always felt that After Effects was a little too scary to get into, but the instructor made it so easy to understand and follow along. I really appreciated her thoroughness with explaining how to set up our files and useful keyboard shortcuts. It was great being able to make our animations alongside her, and I feel comfortable and ready to tackle my own animations soon!

• Introduction to Adobe Illustrator

  Anonymous • November 23, 2018
  Carla Douglas, Is a wonderful professor. She has a great sense of humor and you will be laughing while learning illustrator. I had fun with all the projects drawing a figure, making a rotosketch, making an infographic, designing a package. She cares about her students and takes the time to make sure that everyone is up to speed with all the tools in illustrator. I will be taking illustrator advanced with her. And really enjoyed this class. She is one of the best and brightest professors at Pratt and I wish she were teaching other subjects as well in graphic design. She is a working Art Director in graphic design and has practical working knowledge to share with all her students. I highly recommend anyone interested in learning how to use illustrator to take this class. I had so much fun learning and she promoted a very supportive and caring environment for everyone no matter what level you are at. By the end of class people who did not know how to use illustrator at all had projects that were amazing!

  I liked that there was a lot to cover. It was a challenge to keep up and I ended up learning more than I would if I tried it at home. I was worried it may be too slow. It was great to get personal advice, tips and tricks that you may not find in online tutorials.

  I'm writing to let you know how pleased I was with my experience at FMC Irvine, where I recently participated in a three day training course in Adobe After Effects. I've had the good fortune to attend a variety of FMC training venues including Adobe Video World, NAB Post|Production World, and the FMC's Editor's Retreat, and I'm happy to say that I found my first experience with FMC's 'Connected' learning environment (using live video feeds) to be completely equal to your excellent live on-site training. The quality of your facilities and individual attention, along with the opportunity to learn from and interact with other students across the country in real-time were truly exceptional. The instructor and pacing were both spot on, and I especially enjoyed his use of stories and metaphors to explain and clarify complex concepts, all combined with an easy and helpful manner. I wholeheartedly recommend Future Media Concepts 'Connected' training, and offer my endorsement to anyone interested in the classes you offer.

  Ali Green was an excellent instructor for the course. Not only did he have in depth knowledge of After Effects, but he also went above and beyond to help each individual student with poise and patience. I would recommend him to anyone who is thinking of taking this course.
