Through short, hand-drawn 2D animation projects, students are introduced to primary animation skills such as timing & spacing, the 12 Principles of Animation, believable acting, and various professional workflows. Students gain experience working in a variety of animation and video editing programs and practice all parts of the animation pipeline, including pre-production, post-production, and project management.
