    Video Copilot is great place to get off to a bad start in making work that looks like it came out of After Effects or C4d. Focus on your ideas and your designs. Really nail those down. Otherwise you're going to end up with nasty motion graphics like the videos above. I'd suggest paying a lot of attention to strong editorial work and cinematography as well. You can animate lots of different ways, but very true that AE and C4d (w/Mograph) are good starting points, and then moving onto Maya if you start to fall in love with 3d. Final Cut is also a great something to be familiar with. I wouldn't bother with Motion though.
