It's almost Halloween, so why not learn to create a spooky text animation effect while boosting your After Effects skills at the same time? You can do just that in our new course, Create a “Stranger Things” Inspired Text Animation in Adobe After Effects.

What You’ll Learn

In this course, you’ll learn how to create a retro title sequence inspired by the show “Stranger Things”.

This course is perfect for artists and designers, either experienced or new to Adobe After Effects. Instructor Jonathan Lam will cover each part of the process in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step fashion, starting from scratch. This includes using keyframes for text animation, applying special effects, importing audio, and rendering.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a better understanding of these tools and how you can create a retro, atmospheric, text reveal animation. These skills can be used to make your own movie trailers, video effects, and animated sequences.

Here are some free lessons from this course, as a preview of what you can expect:
