Animation 1

​

​

In this 2D-focused course, students work in-depth with Adobe Animate to explore and create a variety of animations including motion graphics, kinetic typography, and character animation.

 

In character animation, students explore the 12 fundamental principles of animation that will bring natural movement and life to characters. Students also draw/animate complete characters from the ground up using various tools, brushes and techniques.

 

The final animation is a combination of script work, storyboarding and fully developed characters. If you think you’re interested in animation, this is a great place to explore and try it out. For the more serious animator, it’s a great place to hone your skills and develop your portfolio.

 

Prior experience with a pen tablet and drawing is recommended.
