Is The Gnomon Workshop good or is it a scam? I want to learn from a couple of courses, and they have video previews for each course. Some parts of the courses seem interesting, but some of their results for the courses I want seem questionable, at best. I won't pirate.

I just looked through and seen reviews about it. I don’t recommend it, one major flaw is that you can’t get Autodesk or Adobe’s software as a student. You will pay a high price plus the monthly subscription. It’s not the real school, no certificates or accreditation. This means if you want to go to real school to learn a specific subject, the online courses aren’t going to be something to brag about and you’ll lose time on something you know.
I highly recommend a normal school just to avoid paying extra money to Autodesk and Adobe.

It's a tutorial market similar to Wingfox, Udemy , so pretty much depends on the teachers , usually these place have some loose guideline and the teacher just do whatever they want , so no continuity between classes and depend mostly whether you really want to learn from specific artists

Still doesn’t mean you get the software for free. You need the software no matter what, unless you think 30 days is enough or stolen it. Also, we don’t really know how much your pc can handle simulations and particles. Just to give an overview, an 1050Ti GeForce graphic card can only do like 20% until lag happens.
One last thing, I’m 100% sure you need adobe effects experience or at best visual editing skills. You’ll will need to make sure no losses happen and sadly, only adobe effects offers it. Unless you’re a hobbyist then it shouldn’t matter since viewers never care much.

You dont do particle sims on graphics cards. You do it on cpu with oodles of ram. Gpu solvers look like shit.
After effects is shit. I am trying to learn nuke
