Well over a year ago I gleefully stumbled onto your website right around the time I acquired the Meyers books and After Effects and decided I was going to learn Motion Graphics.

A lot of time has passed and I really suck at Motion Grapics. BUT. I do know what a keyframe is and can pre comp something, change colors, and do some other stuff that I couldn’t do a year ago. It is a happy day when one of your new products comes out!!

I love your website because it is a training ground of the fundamental basics of After Effects and Motion Graphics and something tells me if I keep practicing no matter how much it doesn’t feel like I am getting anywhere because I can’t come up with some spectacular design and implement it because I am learning to be automatic like now, like I learned by multiplication tables before I started using them automatically in algebra (all of which I have forgotten, but that is besides the point)

I love what you do, think you have a kicking sense of humor and I join the grateful ranks of people whose lives are being changed. You help keep me out of a cubicle and anybody who does that has my grateful appreciation.

Once I start making some money I will start buying Dickinson’s stuff, but right now to the victor goes the spoils. Marketing genius…

Nice interview although I just wished Dickinson would let you speak more, he kept interrupting in the middle of a sentence which was kind of annoying :/

Best of luck,
