This course examines the ways in which software tools such as Adobe Photoshop and Macromedia Director can be used to simulate traditional animation techniques. Students will apply the principles of animation to create animated short videos. The results will be the creation of a blendo style of animation, i.e., one that incorporates computer animation, paper manipulation, pixelation, rotoscoping and many other styles. Practical applications, analysis of animated films, drawing assignments, discussions and writing for animated films forms the basic format of this course. |
