Reviews
?After Effects Apprentice? provides a strong foundation for the aspiring motion graphics designer or visual effects artist. It is an excellent
resource to help users get up to speed in After Effects quickly and to maximize their creative expression.
Steve Kilisky, senior product
manager, Adobe After Effects.
The Meyers have once again shown their eloquence and expert knowledge of After Effects. It is my opinion
that After Effects Apprentice will be the primer for all those who are learning After Effects in production work.
R.Christopher Biggs,
special digital effects animator, Walt Disney Imagineering
I literally learned After Effects from Trish Meyer two weeks before starting
work on "Star Wars: Episode 1".... Their commitment to quality, and more importantly clarity, makes all of their books a "must-have."
"After Effects Apprentice" is a great way to get started in After Effects...possibly the best way.

This book provides a
"missing link" for those who need to master essential After Effects techniques but also want to improve their overall grasp of broad
motion graphics and VFX principles and methods.

The lessons are structured
very well, the writing is easy to understand, and each step builds on the previous one. I will defiantly use this book in my Motion Graphics
class at MiraCosta College. Thanks for making my job much easier!!

Trish and Chris
have done it again...I have always liked Trish and Chris' approach to teaching complex lessons...they talk to you, not at you...It is
a great book even if your not new to AE.
