Course Description

The Animation course covers the principles and history of the art, Pose to Pose and Top Down - the two most popular approaches to animation, as well as lip sync, body mechanics and walk cycles. Every day you'll see an animation example supported with a discussion of the techniques you've seen used.

The last half of the course is then spent developing and aniamting a short project. Animation is an art and craft that requires a lot of time and effort to truly master.  Developed by Escape CG Specalist and Pixar veteran Jeff Pratt, this course is perfect for anyone who wants to begin the process of developing as an animator by leanring from the very best.
