After Effects PowerStart is the world’s best learning experience for mastering After Effect’s unique and sophisticated motion graphics creation environment, whether you are a professional graphics artist, video or film editor, or new to digital media.
The After Effects PowerStart course was created by Stephen Schleicher and Josh Mellicker. Stephen, a well-known digital media expert and teacher, was chosen by Adobe as one of the world’s top After Effects gurus to write large sections of their advanced Classroom in a book. Josh is considered among the foremost experts in motion graphics and digital media, and has been working with After Effects since the CoSa days.
The Foundations course begins with a series of modules covering the After Effects interface and basic concepts. Then, the hands-on portion of the course begins, where you will build a simple but ultra-cool title animation yourself, in After Effects, along with your virtual instructor, in our breakthough Chunkalized™ learning environment. You will find yourself using this cool title technique in your own projects. By the end of the first lesson, you will have a solid grasp of the entire After Effects project creation process and workflow.
Then, in the Advanced course, you’ll dive many layers deeper into After Effects, building an sophisticated, professional-level project incorporating video, vector elements, text, effects, masks, nested compositions, alpha channels, transfer modes, 3D layers, and many other intermediate to advanced features of After Effects. If you’re been using After Effects for a while, you may be familiar with some of the material covered in this course- but you’ll find tons of unique tips and secrets sprinkled throughout the course that will be invaluable for any After Effects artist.

The only thing missing from this DVD is a part 2! One of the best introductions to Adobe After Effects that I've ever come by. The pace is quick but easy to follow. Concepts are clearly discussed and reused throughout the DVD so you "learn" - not just memorize.
If you're new to AE, rent this title now!
Some very good instruction and examples, the layout for the DVD is also nice.
