Read MoreI come to this course after watching the Timeline and Cinemachine Tutorials. I had started making my own short films. This course has opened a whole new perspective on what is possible! The order of the course parts is a bonus in itself. I now see how working in a certain order while making my films will save a LOT of time! Before I would be back and forth, changing and correcting things. Now I will have a much more structured approach, which will help speed up my film production. Another great aspect about this course, is the adding of finesse to your clips, (Focus, Depth of Field, Light modifications, SFX, and more). This alone will take my film making up a notch. There are also many great little shortcuts that I was not aware of. (Too many for me to list!) Lastly, as a user of Premiere, again the process and finesse added in the video has also taught me soooo much. Omar my friend, Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

The things taught can be used for games not just movies, and things like cutscenes. Cinemachine is by far the best unity camera system I ever seen you should use it every time even for mobile games.

After going through the basics of Unity's timeline, setting up the scene, and playing around with cameras & animations, we will be creating a showcase video to test our skills. Finally, we will combine all we learned into a 1 min short film.
Meet your Instructor
Hi, I'm Omar A. Balfaqih!
(Filmmaker, Instructor, and Software Engineer)
I am one of those lucky people who knew from an early age what they wanted to do when they grew up…
Almost 2 decades ago, when I was a kid, I started with 2D animation and kept on switching between that and coding... and I've published my first mobile game back in 2012. So I began creating games, interactive apps, and short films to tell stories using different mediums.
I have been lucky to co-create Unity tutorials for their official channel and joined the Unity Insiders program.
This is what my clients say about me:
“He is a personable individual who has a passion for creating and teaching real-time story techniques. Omar is a patient worker who can take a story vison and use his technical know how, to implement this into a real-time environment. I find Omar to be a talented individual, who has great knowledge of this field & understands the intricacies of real-time engines.”
- Andy Yong: 3D Animator (The Sims, Sponge Bob, Barnyard, and other games)
“Omar is a great developer to work with, he's conscientious, a great communicator and has been a real asset to our team at Thousand Ant on multiple freelance projects. Looking forward to working with him again!”
- Matthew Schell (Former Head of Content at Unity)
To be honest, knowledge is not worth it if you don't share it with others…
And that's why I have been teaching on my YouTube channel (reaching 1M+ views) for many years.
I was able to grow my channel this huge because of three simple things…
- I love teaching people and sharing my knowledge
- Imagining when I started out and being the teacher I wish I had
- The support of the amazing collaborative community that I equally learn from
Here's a few examples of the comments that fuels my energy to teach:
“I really liked how you covered the basics, but also made it simple”
“I feel like I'm understanding the Timeline for the first time.”
Now, I won’t bore you with further details about me here…

YouTube Comments
A few of the many great comments from the great community
“Words cannot convey my delight that at least someone has a working tutorial! Man, thank you so much! I was already on the verge of despair, I reconsidered everything, in some tutorials there were some special assets and things to download, in others there were complex non-working scripts ... But I just had a model with bones and several animations for it ! Thank you all the best, thank you, thank you”
STAR LUSON
“I loved this tutorial! The best I've seen on this subject. I really liked how you covered the basics, but also made it simple. You're very easy to understand. I would very much like to see more. I need to see if you have made more tutorials since when you made this. It was really helpful!”
Jeremy B
“This is by far the best timeline tutorial out there”
Guts Berserker
“Great tutorial - I feel like I'm understanding the Timeline for the first time. Bought your tool OB-Object Placer.”

How much would this be worth to you?
I’m talking about the ability to quickly & simply create stunning CGI short films and game cinematics in real time from the comfort of your home.
This skill can save you several days or even weeks of planning, scheduling, and executing shots, especially for those annoying complex scenes or reshoots.
Not to mention you don’t have to hire actors or a crew, rent equipment, and pay location costs.
Nor do you have to finance building physical sets or for additional costs to repeat shoots due to changes or errors.
That’s a huge amount of time & money saved right?!
Would you say it’s worth $997 for you?
If you take into account all time & money you’re going to save…
Plus all the great opportunities you’ll have knowing this skill, I think it would be a reasonable price.
But because I'm passionate about teaching and my motto is “knowledge is not worth it if you don't share it with others”
I’ll make the price much sweeter for you.
You won’t have to pay $997
You won’t even have to pay $497
To help give access to everyone, you’ll only have to pay $249.99!
