Testimonials

I enjoyed this class very much. I have never used After Effects before, but after the first day of this class, I felt like I could make really good basic effects. I will be able to use everything that I learned this week.

Kristian was an amazing teacher! He was incredibly patient and informative. He was able to explain things in such an easy way to follow. He clearly is an expert on the topic and was a phenomenal teacher!

Kristian is a veritable Premier Pro God. There wasn't one question that he wasn't able to answer and I feel like I can competently work on editing film and video. He provided career advice and advised on realistic goals. I will definitely keep in contact with my instructor and refer others who are eager to learn to Training Connection.
