Description
About This Class

Here’s a comprehensive guide for beginners in ANIMATION. You will learn the ANIMATION

PRINCIPLES you need to animate objects, text, and even characters. If you want to learn

animation from scratch, you can start right here with this course. I designed this course for

beginners, so if you’ve never heard of a keyframe or don’t know what a timeline is, then this

course is for you. This course is Animation 101. I also believe this course will be excellent for

anyone with a vague idea of animation, someone who is new to animation and uses software

to move elements but truly wants to understand the fundamental principles to take

animation to the next level.

These fundamental animation principles will prepare you for a career in animation. You’ll learn

step by step how to create realistic and engaging motion; moreover, you’ll understand why

certain specific animation techniques effectively bring objects to life. And most importantly,

you’ll learn when to apply them to your work.

In this course, I use Clip Studio to teach you animation. You’ll study classic animation, frame

by frame, hand-drawn. It’s the best way to learn animation principles. And don’t worry if you

think you can’t draw, we’ll work with basic shapes to animate – to breathe life into these

shapes.

This course starts by teaching you how to animate with just keyframes; it will guide you step by

step to animating a character jumping. I’ve structured each lesson to be neither confusing nor

overwhelming. As I’ve made applying the principles very simple, you’ll have the opportunity to

truly grasp the concepts without worrying about drawing skills, working with advanced

symbols, or complex structures.

The course progresses towards two final projects. These are significant animation projects in

any school or university program. In these projects, you’ll transition from keyframes to a

smooth, dynamic character animation. I want to ensure you feel confident to animate a

complex character animation with many moving parts when we reach the final project.

What’s covered in this course

Whether you eventually want to work in 3D, motion graphics, or 2D animation, you’ll need

to know things like

Transitions between keyframes

How to create a smooth transition,

Why you need to do it – and when you should apply it.

You’ll also learn skills that will not only make you an animator but a truly proficient one – skills

such as

Timing and spacing

Stretching and squashing

Working in curved trajectories

Working with timelines

How to animate with anticipation, overshoot, and settle.
