Me and MAGES School of Excellence

Our relationship started in 2017

PRIOR to skillsfuture grants! Batches were small, and as a full time diploma school, they did not offer as many short courses as they do today.
8 Years later I'm officially a collaborative partner with them and take full control over the Motion Design Production Techniques and theres no turning back. We have graduated hundreds of students, Creative Directors, Designers, Film Editors and Serious enthusiasts in learning the professional tool of Adobe After Effects and all it's work applications. With the integration of Generative AI techniques, we have made it even more accessible to hobbyists and creators to unleash their creativity and maybe... just maybe... create more side hustle opportunities!

The door is now open to you! Don't waste your Skills Future Credits my friend. Sign up for this end of year final hurrah and learn a skill today!

What some of our students say!

"Jerome goes above and beyond in his teaching, especially when it comes to the basic principles of animation. Thanks to his engaging classes and clear explanations, something really clicked for me. I realised how much I enjoy bringing things to life through motion. His passion for the industry is infectious, and it made the learning process exciting and inspiring."

What really stood out was how effectively he taught the software. His approach made it easy for me to pick things up quickly. I also admired how versatile he is. Jerome wears many hats, and knowing he has experience in production made his insights even more valuable. It was cool to see someone with such a well-rounded background teaching the subject.

His teaching sparked my interest in pursuing motion graphics and 3D animation more seriously. Even after the course ended, Jerome has remained approachable and supportive always willing to answer questions and offer guidance. That kind of continued guidance really speaks to his dedication as an educator."

- Claire | Art Director | GERMS Digital

"I had the absolute pleasure of learning under Jerome back in 2020, during a time when I felt creatively restrained and was eager to deepen my motion graphics skills.

Jerome’s approach to teaching went far beyond After Effects shortcuts or keyframe precision. He taught us how to think like Motion Art Directors—with intention, restraint, and rhythm. His openness to share both knowledge and real-world experience created a learning environment that felt safe, energising, and deeply inspiring. What truly impressed me most is that Jerome never taught from ego. Despite his deep industry experience and razor-sharp eye, he always made space for questions, dialogue, and personal exploration.

Since graduating from his class, I’ve also had the privilege of collaborating with him on motion design commissions for Meta. Our synergy across both motion and graphic direction was seamless, and I’m proud to have delivered the project alongside him as an amazing creative collaborator."

- Art Director | House of Adjaycent

"Jerome made the lessons into bite size chunks and was very entertaining, he makes the softwares that felt daunting initially more approachable.

He stimulates how I can apply the same techniques for other things and even applicable for my tasks at work!."

- TechCreate, Marketer

"Jerome is a highly experienced trainer and industry professional.

As a business owner, I found my time with him incredibly valuable — he provided market insights and practical skills in motion design and AI tools that I could immediately apply to my business. Whether it’s implementing these capabilities within my team or overseeing third-party vendors, I now have the confidence and knowledge to manage the process effectively.."

Anyone interested in motion design, no prior art skills needed.

What software is taught?

So are you MAGEs or Spark Social Lab?

BOTH! I am NOT a stake holder at MAGEs but I do have a level of ownership on the Motion Design module. This module is a 36 hour course for up skilling professionals but over 40% of our students are business owners and side hustlers who want to learn a professional skill. So you still sign through MAGEs and their wonderful student management team will take care of the rest.

Spark Social Lab is still working towards getting Skills Future partnership and current only offers corporate training masterclasses in

• Business storytelling (super charge your power point presentations)

• Gen Ai for creators

• Mobile Filming techniques and DIY hacks "Secrets from the Pros"

Awesome! Skills Future! Where can I sign up?

Go to the MAGEs website in the link here and connect with our friendly student advisor! They will guide you through the claiming process and eligibility. For anything else, I'll see you on 29 December 2025!
