ANI 1005Animation Principles and Trends
This course is designed to introduce students to the world of animation and illustration through lecture and practical lessons. Lectures will survey the history of animation and introduce the conceptual framework, as well as the implications of techniques. The practical sessions will provide hands-on training on specific rendering techniques and discuss new developments and future trends in the industry. A $100 course fee required.
This course is designed to introduce the techniques, strategies and conceptual approaches to animation that utilize the direct animation techniques. Weekly workshops with different techniques will guide students towards a deeper understanding of the various methods of animation and their processes. A $100 course fee required.
(PQ: ANI1105 or consent of instructor) Exploration of the basic principles of movement for the animator, working with the very basic movements to the complex. A $100 course fee required.
(PQ: ANI1105, ANI2201) This course is designed to give students the chance to explore specializations within the pipeline of animated short film production. Working in teams, students will be given different roles as illustrators, animators, 3D modelers and more in order to work through all the processes necessary to make a fully rendered animation from a script. A $100 course fee required.
The objective of this course is to expand the knowledge of hard- and soft-bodied surfaces. Students will learn good edgeflow and topology for animation and will improve the rendering skills needed to showcase their models. Students will learn best practices for 3D modeling as used in animation, films and print. A $100 course fee required.
