Learn how to animate on a computer! Students will develop strong foundations in 2-D, digital animation by exploring digital software such as Adobe Animate CC and by learning the 12 principles of animation. We'll complete exercises like synching animation to sound, walk cycles and storyboarding. The goal of this course is to give students the tools and knowledge to continue digital animation on their own.

  • This is an On-site course. Students must follow social distancing protocols and wear masks at all times. For more info visit visarts.org.
