Animation - Third-Year Studio I

Catalog description

In this studio students will continue to build upon their animation skills through the analysis of physical and character motion. Students will learn to express physical properties of motion through the tools of timing, spacing, takes, smears, and other animation techniques. Students will also learn to utilize reference footage to study the properties of object and character motion, and to translate and stylize that motion into an animated form. An emphasis is placed on communicating story and emotion in the expression of motion. Prerequisite: ANIM 310, ANIM 315, ANIM 321 with semester grades of "C" or higher or instructor permission.
