A beginner’s questions
Hey everyone. My name is Tim. I am new to this forum. I graduated from school last year trained in animation. But over the course of the year, after working in animation for some time, I realized that my true passion is in after effects. Often I would spend more time in the video editor than in the 3d software. One of my earlier works in special effects even got 3 million views on youtube! Which makes me think that perhaps becoming a video editor or special effects artist is where my potential really lie. But right now I have almost no idea about this industry. My skills in after effects is amateur at best. And I really want to study and become better at it. Is there any schools or programs that teach this subject? And what kind of job and salary can I expect when I come out? Any help here would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot guys!

Hi Tim,
I can’t answer your questions about salary/schools, but I can tell you that if you check out the AE podcasts here at the Cow from the start and also check out the beginner’s AE course (free) at videocopilot.net you will get to grips with the programme.
Good luck!
