How I Help Motion Designers Work Smarter

I've been using After Effects for a while.
And even though I can't control how old I'm getting, over the years I've come up with lots of useful presets and rigs that make complex or repetitive tasks easy to apply. And over on my YouTube channel, I make as many sample projects and assets available to viewers as I possibly can. This is a collection of all of those downloads in one place. Take a look, start downloading, and don't forget to tag me @jakeinmotion to show off what you make!

Hi, I'm Jake
I live in Denver, Colorado with my wife, two kids, and a Dalmatian named Pixel. For more than a decade I've been teaching motion designers how to work more efficiently.
You might have seen some of my 30+ Skillshare courses, one of my courses at School of Motion, or the motion design tutorials on my YouTube channel.
In 2022 I enthusiastically joined the team at Battle Axe with the role of Lead Educator, and have been working to help develop useful tools for Motion Designers and teach others how to use them.
Teaching is my passion, and it shows through my content. I'm genuinely excited to teach you and have a special skill for breaking down technical workflows and creative processes into easy-to-understand videos in a fun and engaging way.
I hope to see you in one of my classes.
