This course is really interesting and I do think that it qualifies as an "intermediate course". Even though I do not use Cinema 4D, there is a lot of great info to be taken from the After Effects and Frame-by-Frame sections. Really good stuff! However, the English translation subtitles could really be improved — that would be great. There are also some downloadable linked files missing for the Unit 4 AE file. Those issues aside, the info contained in the course is still worth a recommendation.

The course was fantastic. I gained valuable knowledge by creating designs on paper and then animating them traditionally with software like Photoshop/Toon Boom Harmony. Additionally, I learned how to animate them using After Effects.
