As I watched Joey Korenman's heroic 30 Days of After Effects series, some dormant parts of my brain began to whirr with life. And when he announced that his company School Of Motion was starting an Animation Bootcamp for motion designers to improve the fundamentals of their work, I knew that I wanted in.
