Description:
This course will address the unique principles of drawing for animation: the way animated drawings become performance in motion. This course will focus on drawing as an integral part of an animator's technical and conceptual process. It looks at drawing as a tool for technical mastery, conceptual thinking as well as personal expression. We will focus on capturing the essence of a gesture, achieving an understanding of balance and rhythm, strong posing, performance and character acting. We will learn to make drawings which are not just 'beautiful' but speak with clarity and support visual storytelling.
