Animation is one of the most unique and versatile mediums of storytelling and art. This class aims to go over the basics of it: covering its history, practicing the 12 Principles of Animation, learning how to use the app RoughAnimator, and strengthening student’s drawing, animation, and storytelling skills. This class is beginner-friendly, but will also have more complex and challenging projects for those who are at intermediate levels.

Some courses may involve tasks or activities that may be difficult for individuals with limited strength, difficulty bending over, and sitting or standing for long periods of time. We are happy to work with students to find solutions to make their experience positive and doable. For example, wheel throwing takes arm strength and bending over the wheel. Students may work on hand-building projects instead of throwing. Please reach out to our office to discuss your needs.
