Over-all assignment of this course: Animate a character. We’ll start really basic so anyone can participate!

There will be short assignments with each class as animation is something you'll learn better, by doing. The assignments are a step by step process towards creating your very first character animation! All the assignments will lead towards creating your very first character animation. I recommend participating in each assignment.

Tools: There are no tools or software supplied with this course. It’s recommended to download a demo/ purchase the animation software to your preference, or use the tools you have; paper, scanner and editing software. During the course I’ll use digital drawn-2D animation for my explanations. The basics theory of frame for frame animation are the same regardless of the tools. I will talk about the software at times for those who are interested!

Animation software examples you can purchase or download a demo of to participate in the class assignments: photoshop, tvpaint, toon boom harmoney, moho, celaction2D, synfig, opentoonz, flipbook.
