Work on real world projects
Anyone can follow step-by-step tutorials but we don’t believe that this “watch and follow” technique is the best approach for learning software – it doesn’t cultivate confidence. Our aim is to get you to a stage where you use the software intuitively.
Angie designs bespoke one-to-one training courses to cover more specific or unusual requirements for those who prefer to concentrate only on specific features of the application?
All levels of experience are catered for. You can choose from pre-designed training courses that cover all levels of user from beginners to advanced power-users.
Problem solving
The best way to master any software application is to go through a process of problem-solving on your own projects. Together, you and your trainer will work out the best approach to get the results you want from the software.
We can provide purpose-built training files to teach you certain concepts and techniques but we can also work on your own projects if you’re happy to bring them along. If you’re interested in booking the cabin accommodation, training or a package that includes both, please book here.

Mograph designers and artists are always looking for new templates—and they’re often willing to pay for them. Building template-based projects in After Effects is also a great way to earn extra income while improving your design skills.
