I absolutely loved Ben’s Motion Foundation course! It was the perfect starting point for my motion design journey. I went from feeling overwhelmed by After Effects to truly 'friending' the software and feeling comfortable with its interface.The course is engaging, easy to follow, and incredibly rewarding. I truly enjoyed every lesson and the tasks.

Ben has a brilliant way of teaching the essential principles of animation and, more importantly, showing you exactly how to apply them to your work. Also for me, the best part was the community aspect: being able to share my work with others and receiving direct feedback from Ben and the tutors,it’s such an encouraging environment that keeps you motivated to try and improve.Highly recommended :)

Very clear instructional videos and easily accessible for questions. In the end, I sent all my assignments to Ben and received a personal assessment discussing all the assignments I had completed. Highly recommended. I learned a lot from it.

Ben Marriott’s teaching style was perfect for my pace as a beginner in motion graphics. His course helped me become confident and well-equipped, and best of all I can return to this course whenever I need a refresher in the future.

Ben Marriott's courses are not only educational, they're FUN! The work-at-your-pace style of courses is excellent for busy folks who are trying to hone their motion design skills and for beginners alike.

In 2020, I shifted from video editing to motion design, and Ben Marriott's YouTube courses gave me the foundation to build my motion design knowledge and the confidence to take on more complex projects.

These courses take those lessons to the next level, giving you practical skills you'll use in everyday work and tools to push yourself creatively. Highly, highly recommend.

Ben Marriott is probably the best, most thorough instructor for animation and design that I know of. His knowledge of design and animation principles is deep and he delivers complex concepts in a step by step clear and engaging way. I did both the motion design and design courses and recommend both. 10/10

Ben is such a good teacher and animator, learned a lot from him, which I use in my animations!

Excellent teacher. Excellent curriculum. Helped me build my skills from beginner to advanced techniques through the lens of an organized, professional level work flow. Always name your layers.

I'm a graphic designer, and I used to do a lot of animation in After Effects about seven years ago, but I stopped practicing and gradually forgot a lot of what I knew, so I decided to take this course to refresh my skills. It’s really been great. Ben explains even the smallest details, and I like that. Plus, several of his tips have been quite useful to me since I wasn’t familiar with those little tricks the program has. I’m starting week two.

Really digestible and cohesive lessons for anyone who wants to get into motion graphics. Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn it!

Ben's an extremely talented designer and instructor. He clearly cares for both his students and his craft, and he's one of the only online instructors who's not chasing trends and wasting the time of his students.

The course is awesome. You don’t just learn how to do the projects but new and faster ways to approach your work. I highly recommend it. The only thing I would suggest is more interaction between students and the teacher but I know this is hard in an online course

Ben has a masterful way of balancing expertise with approachability that is nearly impossible to find or match. He puts a massive amount of thought and effort into his tutorials and classes, and it shows. Even the introduction of his beginner's course equipped me with tools I use daily after being in the industry over 10 years! I've learned more about motion graphics and design through his instruction than nearly anywhere else, and I couldn't be more grateful.

I would highly recommend Ben and trust him completely. He's not only a masterful instructor and gifted artist, but, as far as I can tell, a very decent, patient, humble, and overall positive person as well, and I can only imagine your experience with him will be just as positive

These are the best courses I've taken in all my time studying motion design!
Ben provides a comprehensive foundation and lots of professional tips;
his courses have really helped me level up my skills in both design and motion design.

I also want to point out that English isn’t my native language, but listening to his course is a real pleasure—everything is clear.

Ben's course is the best one I've taken. He's clearly spent an incredible amount of time creating a course that actually gets to the heart of what you need to know. It's very cleverly constructed to feel manageable and enjoyable and at the same time teaching you the most effective things to know. I don't use After Effects regularly, but the proof that the course has worked is when I open the app I know instinctively what shortcuts to use and what things I need to do. I have many half finishes courses from other teachers but I've completed Ben's course in it's entirety

It might be a little over the top for me to say this, but I absolutely love Ben's work and teaching style. I can't remember how it all happened some yeas ago, but I think one of his tutorials popped up in my YT feed - I was so wowed by the animation and how well he explains the step-by-step process, that I really wanted to learn animation. I took his Master Motion Design course, and followed along with tons of his YT tutorials, and now I do Motion Design and Animation work professionally. He's not only a great teacher, who teaches at a good pace, he's also very relatable and hilarious in the process. I owe a lot of where I am in my career today thanks to Ben.

I've taken several motion design courses online, and Ben's "Master Motion Design" was by far my favorite. He combines a genuine passion for the craft with detailed instruction, humor, and always beautiful designs that will make anyone fall in love with motion design. Now working as a professional motion designer, I truly value his optimism and excitement to push through even the monotonous parts of the process to achieve something beautiful. Thank you Ben!

The best MGFX teacher out there- he taught me everything I know about motion graphics and approaches seemingly complex animations in such a straightforward way. His course saved my butt many times when I was hired in my role as a motion graphics designer, and I would recommend his courses to anyone who is interested in improving not only their animation skills but also their eye for design.

Simply the best online course I ever had for motion graphics/animation!

The best animation course on the market. Well worth the money.

Want to become a Knight for the house of the Motion design or even a warrior of the keyframe ?

This course is for you - I followed Ben’s YouTube channel before purchasing his course. Although his free content is very good - this course takes it a step higher and really teaches you how to become a professional.

All the lessons are well explained - the group chats to see other people’s work are so motivating.

For what’s being taught - it’s definitely worth the money !
