“If you are like me, and have been using After Effects for a while you may be tempted to skip ahead in certain areas because you already know about the topic. My advice is to rather watch that topic/section at a faster speed because you may miss out on some great tips to help you work more effectively. As with all Adobe products there are multiple ways of doing things to achieve the same or similar...”

“he takes time to explain. I love this course.”

Alfred

“As someone already working as a full-time video editor, Daniel's techniques for bringing data to life have been, well, a life-saver. His suggestions have improved my workflow, and increased what I can offer as an editor. Big thanks for all the content.”

Crispen

“This course has been a huge help for me to start planning and actually executing on putting together visual design components to my normally boring data presentations I make as a health care professional”

Mark

“Again, another amazing instructional course from Dan about Adobe products. The course is clear, concise, and covers a large variety of software features and techniques. Second course completed for After Effects, and I can't wait to dive in and try everything out!”

Craig

“Great course to get started in After Effects. Easy to follow along, useful and practical examples, thorough yet simple explanations. Now I will be starting the Motion Graphics Design & VFX course to expand my After Effects skillset”

A.P.

“Awesome teaching style. Fun to watch and learn. Many thanks Dan :) Valuable information”

Didier

“Great course! Exceptionally good. Recommend it to everyone who wants to learn After Effects.”

Nikola

“Dan is a great teacher. This my third course with him as the instructor and I'm so pleased. I like the small-talk and recommendations to sites for icons, text etc. I also feel so much more confident in my abilities. Thanks as always, Dan. Looking forward to more of your courses!”

Maggi

“Great course! I had never opened After Effects before this course, I am halfway through the course and I already feel more confident. The material is informative and easy to understand! Keep up the good work.”

Rosana

“Amazing! Dan moves through all the course content at a perfect speed, and explains all the material in a really easy to follow fashion. After this course I have enrolled some of his other courses because I was so enamored with his teaching style. Looking forward to the next course! Thanks Dan.”

Nicholas

“Excellent course! Initially, before starting this course, I was trying to avoid After Effects, but after realizing I could do much better animations in this program, I decided to choose this course. And now, I love AE more than Premiere Pro:) Thanks, Daniel!”

Craciun

“Not finished the course, but already impressed. I'm using After Effects for years now and I've already learned a lot of useful tips and tricks. Also Dan ist very likeable and has a good humor and a pleasant voice. :) Thanks!”

Ulrike

“It's the first time for me and I'm really enjoying the course because it's very educational.”

‫majed

“Amazing! It's so fulfilling to do these complex things step by step with Dan! Such a great teacher :)”

Guillaume

“Great course! He delivers bite sized, well organized instruction to actually learn and then be able to use after effects (or refer back to the sections later). I bought this course after completing his Premier Pro course and plan to buy his audition course next! Added bonus; Daniel is funny and entertaining too! 🤣”

Sarah

“This course is perfect! It isn't too fast or too slow, and it's all organized really well. I need to learn how to animate for work, and it's not only been super helpful, but also a lot of fun to learn! Dan is also very easy to listen to. I 1000% recommend this course to anyone trying to learn how to animate using After Effects!”

Michelle

“This is awesome! I feel like I am already pro! As Im suffering from ADHD and I am so terrible at doing adbe creative soft(My brain stop working after I see a bunch of info from screen when I open it ), I really wanted express my feeling by using adbe soft but Ive been giving up using them all cuz its so hard to learn for me . but I really really thankful to this teacher! He changed my career and m...”

まどか

“Dan is my hero. I've been using InDesign/Illustrator and Photoshop for 20 years but have been daunted by animations. I started this course during lockdown and halfway through I (successfully) managed to complete an animated infographic on the effects of Covid-19 on GBV in Southern Africa. Work got busy and I didn't quite finish the course back then so have redone it now and intend to finish it! Da...”

Kerry

“I always found After Effects intimidated. Not anymore, thanks to Dan :)”

Daniel Scott

Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.

Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.

True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
