Ready to take your GSAP3 skills to the next level? In this course, I'll show you my favorite GSAP3 features that you absolutely need to know to discover new possibilities in creating and managing animations.
GSAP3: Beyond the Basics is designed to help you better understand the full potential of GSAP and master the techniques that professionals use for more complex animations.
Creative Coding Club is a creative-technology teaching platform run by Carl Andersen, focused on the creative and visual side of programming — generative art, p5.js / Processing, Three.js, shader programming, and the WebGL / GLSL toolchain that sits underneath modern browser graphics work.
The CourseFlix listing carries four Creative Coding Club courses on generative art, creative coding fundamentals, and the visual programming patterns that bridge design and code. Material is paid and aimed at designers and developers building creative-technology work rather than business applications.

Frequently asked questions
What prerequisites do I need before taking this course?
Before enrolling in this course, you should have a foundational understanding of GSAP3, as it builds on basic concepts. Familiarity with JavaScript and basic animation principles will be beneficial. The course dives into advanced topics like getter-setter methods, timeline visualizers, and 3D transforms, so prior experience with these areas will help you grasp the content more effectively.
What projects will I build during the course?
During the course, you'll work on several projects that utilize advanced GSAP3 features. You'll create a timeline visualizer using getChildren(), build complex animations with 3D text rotators, and develop interactive elements like a smart play-pause-restart toggle button and an HTML input slider to scrub through animations. These projects are designed to help you master professional animation techniques.
Who is the target audience for this course?
This course is ideal for web developers and animators who already have a basic understanding of GSAP3 and wish to enhance their skills. It is tailored for those interested in learning advanced animation techniques and exploring the full potential of GSAP3 for professional and complex animation projects.
How does this course compare to other animation courses?
Unlike introductory courses, this course focuses on advanced GSAP3 features and techniques used by professionals. It covers topics such as immediateRender property, weightedRandom() function, and creating complex animations with nested timelines and custom easing functions. It's designed for those looking to deepen their knowledge beyond basic animations.
What specific tools or platforms will be covered?
The course covers a variety of GSAP3 tools and plugins, including CSSPlugin for removing inline styles, AttrPlugin for morphing curves, and utilities like gsap.utils.wrap() and gsap.registerEffect(). Additionally, you'll explore how to use GSAP's 3D transforms and various easing functions to enhance your animations.
What topics are not covered in this course?
This course does not cover the basics of GSAP3 or introductory animation concepts. It assumes prior knowledge in these areas. Additionally, it does not delve into non-GSAP3 animation libraries or general graphic design principles, focusing exclusively on advanced GSAP3 functionalities.
What is the expected time commitment for the course?
The course consists of 54 lessons, each focusing on different advanced GSAP3 features and techniques. The exact runtime is not specified, but given the depth of topics like nested timelines and ease-based distribution, you should expect to spend several hours completing the lessons and exercises, depending on your prior experience and pace.
