Drawing for Animation I*

36-2025

Through this drawing intensive course, you will acquire an understanding of figurative human emotions and movements, enabling you to create believable animated characters. You will create model sheets, learn the principles of animation, and learn how to endow your characters with believable actions and acting. Digital pencil testing will allow for the building of the animation from basic motion to more refined movements and emotion. Particular attention will be given to timing, layout, the creation of extreme drawings and the process of inbetweening.
