Create stunning animations and video/animation combos that can be exported as stand-alone movies or brought into other programs to be combined with other 2D and 3D multimedia sources. Make simple but powerful animated GIFS for their websites or social media pages. Requirements Nothing special is needed before taking this course except for an open mind and a willingness to play and experiment with Photoshop's animation tools. That said, those who have at least a basic familiarity with Photoshop will be the most comfortable getting started. Free 30 days trials of Photoshop are available from Adobe's website.
