2D Animation (AGAD202)
This course will focus on the cross-over of the basic principles of animation, motion perception, and design for the digital medium. An introduction to the techniques used in traditional animation, including conceptualization, planning, sketching, and cell creation will provide the necessary backbone for this course's emphasis on digital 2D animation. Students will learn how to create computer based vector graphics for use within digital animation software, as well as the techniques necessary for production of advanced 2D animation content for use in multimedia CD-ROMs, game development, and online titles.
