| Description | Animation is an art of transformation, of metamorphosis, of amalgamation. Animation is both anti-technology and hyper digital. Animation is subversive, magical, and expansive. In this course, students will be introduced to an array of foundational animation ideas and techniques. Students will gain hands-on experience with stop motion animation, hand drawn animation, 2d digital animation, sound recording, and hybrid analog/digital techniques. The course will include screenings and discussion, technical demos, studio work, and critique. We will use the following gear and software: Digital cameras, smartphones, sound recorders, Dragon Frame, Adobe Premiere, Animate, and Photoshop. Animation can be a time-consuming process, please plan to spend at least 8 hours per week working outside of class. Some weeks this will be less, often it will be more. Students will need an external hard drive for this course. |
