Only issue with arrangement is minor - voucher was fine but I think an hour is too long - 30 mins would be fine and leave earlier IMHO - overall the course was great - very useful content and a lot to take away and use. Thanks Mike!

Great builder on top of the beginner course - starting to gain an in depth knowledge on a lot of tools learnt within the first 2 days. Utilising these tools through different topics has solidified both my knowledge and confidence with these tools.

Mike was a fantastic teacher - really helpful and engaging. Would highly recommend to my colleagues and use again in future. He also took interest in our work and how it can be applied for our needs i.e. would go out of his way to show how to make diagrams etc.

Despite being new to After Effects, Mike has ensured I have a solid understanding of the programme and enabled me to be confident in my own projects going forward. The full 4-day masterclass is highly recommended to anybody with no prior knowledge!
