Intro to Photo Collage Animation in After Effects

Join us for a hands-on workshop, taught by Maria Munar, where you'll learn to animate your photos and collages using Adobe After Effects. You will be guided through the basics of importing images—whether they come from magazines, cameras, scanners, or your phone—and shown how to cut them out and bring them to life with animation. This workshop is all about exploring new ways to see and use images, and discovering how movement can add a fresh perspective. Dive in, get creative, and see how animation can transform your visual ideas.
