Claymation is an incredibly popular form of stop motion animation and to be good at it you really have to know the fundamentals of how things move - you will leave this class confidently knowing how to take your animation to a new level.

This class is great for self-taught animators, beginners, or hobbyists. I will be keeping things simple and clear so that anybody can better understand how to make things move well, and more fluidly.

There is an expectation that you already know how to set up your camera, lights and other equipment before taking this class. But there will be no need for fancy rigs or heavy post-production.

Simple is often best, some might say always best. Therefore I want you to start simple too: simple shapes, simple colours... and then all your time can be focused on the performance of your work, the movement. After all it doesn't matter how good something looks... if it doesn't move right then the illusion will be broken. This class is going to get you moving things correctly.

BONUS: I will also be teaching some sculpting tips and tricks and talking about different types of clay and tools and why you might want to use different ones.

So, in this course you will learn:

How to animate the fundamentals of good stop motion.
How to sculpt basic shapes cleanly.
Why you should be paying attention to weight and timing.
Plus other tips and advice
