After making a decision that you want to learn Cinema4D or After Effects or any other software for that matter… You are faced with a mind boggling question that leaves you puzzled for hours at an end.Where to start?

That no longer will be a problem because I am going to list 5 websites to help you out in video editing.They are absolutely the best in what they do, Teach. They will definitely get you back on track and help you get started. You know of some websites better than these ? Please specify them in your comment !

You can’t find a better website than this to learn After Effects. It has everything from mind blowing after effects plugins and footage to brilliant tutorials for both the amateur and the veteran. Presented and managed by Andrew Kramer the guy who’s worked with directors like J.J Abrams(Yes, the one behind star trek) has excellent teaching skills and with his help you will be mastering After Effects in no time .

A part of the tutsplus education network, this website is a marvelous source especially if you want to animate your logo (laughs). Its full of tutorials to do exactly that and well, you’ll be seeing that logo quite often if you decide to check out some of their great tuts. Its got a lot of other cool stuff too so click on the above image and check it out.

Another great website to polish your after effects skills and learn how to use some of the plugins available for after effects. It also has some great tutorials on audio editing and Photoshop.Its even got cool presets and scripts for the program.So start after effecting!

Great for the host of plugins it offers. It is also an excellent resource for tutorials and other resources. The ste administered by Shoaib Khan, he is the only Asian person I have stumbled upon who posts tutorials on after effects. Try listening to what he says at the beginning of every tutorial and let me know!

An awesome website to get stock footage from. Ever wondered while seeing an awesome tech movie “whoa! that computer interface looks slick , I wish I could create that interface!”? Well now you can with digital juice’s amazing products. Slightly expensive but definitely worth the money. It also has great range of fonts for those interested.
