The book is good, however there are parts of the instructions that can be too complicated or vague for (college) students. I found the videos and graphics to be a bit on the low quality side. I'd loved to have seen higher quality projects overall.

Very great for creatives and getting a hands on approach to content being created.

Difficult to understand if you are a true beginner in After Effects. Ugly projects.
