This course provides students with practical, hands-on creative experience in animation production and is primarily designed to introduce students to the fundamental principles of animation: timing, movement, staging, design, and editing. Class exercises explore a variety of traditional and experimental techniques and processes including: drawn animation, direct- to-film, cutouts, modified base, and pixilation. This class is more concerned with process than finished product. Personal expression and experimentation are emphasized.
A wide range of independent animated films is screened and discussed to provide creative stimulus and demonstrate a variety of aesthetic and technical approaches.
