Motion Graphics & Animation Principles - After Effects Course
I did the 10 weeks After Effects one-on-one tutorial with Katherine from Rusty Studios. I am absolutely blown away by what I have learned in such a short period of time. I had not used After Effects and I had zero experience with animation. At the end of 10 weeks, I’ve produced three animated videos for my work, with each one more advanced than the last.
My employers are so happy with these videos. My boss actually told me it looks like I’m a professional who has been animating for years.
Katherine came prepared with a solid 10 week course plan, but she was also very receptive to my particular interests and was happy to tailor lessons accordingly. She went above and beyond what was expected.
I have a graduate diploma in media studies, and I can honestly say that this 10 weeks with Katherine far surpassed any teaching experience I had at university. Animating is so much fun, if you want to learn these skills learn from Rusty Studios!

Medical Illustration & e-Learning
Ethos Media was fortunate to discover Rusty Studios (Katherine Allen) in early 2017. We needed assistance in creating a series of motion graphics for a medical e-learning project.
It didn’t take long recognise Katherine’s immense talent and high professional standards.
Katherine’s fantastic work is underpinned by a strong work ethic. Whenever we engage Katherine we know we are in safe hands.
I’m pleased that Ethos Media and Rusty Studio have become regular working partners. Its been an absolute pleasure having a consummate professional, such as Katherine, on our team.
I look forward very much to working closely on future projects.

Corporate Identity & Branding
I was uninspired for ideas when it came to the branding of my business, and after talking to Katherine for 5 minutes, she came up with two options, both were spot on, equally lovely and relevant.
I loved them both, so then it was hard to decide which one I loved best and Katherine helped me through that too.
- So that's how my business identity came about.

One small thing
We worked with Katherine to develop 2x videos using animation and motion kinetics. The client was delighted.
During the design process, Katherine was very clear as to what she needed and was able to produce to the quality
she described.
She took the time to lay in a few seconds to provide an example of the animation sequences, which was useful to bring
the storyboards alive.
All the deliverables were provided on time and the few changes required were made promptly over the busy Xmas period.
I highly recommend Katherine, her approach to the project, work quality
and commitment to getting the best
for the client.
