Class Experience
In this class, students will learn the how to use FlipaClip for making animations. If you love to draw, and you love the look of classic hand drawn animation, I'll teach you how to simplify your drawings, and utilize animation software to create the animations that you've been dreaming of. ITINERARY: ✔ Students are instructed on how to start a FlipaClip project. ✔ Students are introduced to the different tools on FlipaClip. * Students have the option share their screen while using FlipaClip, so that the instructor can give assistance with annotation. ✔ Students experiment with FlipaClip's color panel. ✔ Students are introduced to "layers". ✔ Students are introduced to "Key Frames". ✔ Students will practice Copying and Pasting parts of their artwork. (So that they don't have to redraw some scenes that don't need to be redrawn.) ✔ Students become familiar with the Onion Skin and Grid features. ✔ Students are introduced to the "Frames Viewer" ✔ Students learn how to add layers of sounds and music. ✔ Students learn how to Make/Render the Movie. Already know how to use FlipaClip? As these 1:1 class sessions are learner-directs, there are other possible FlipaClip themed ideas that can be done in class with the student: ✔ If a student is working an animated film or project, I would offer any assistance with that project. ✔ Creating fun fight scenes (or standard walking animations) with the help of movement guides. ✔ Making characters talk and syncing their mouth movements to your voice. ✔ Learning how to do Rotoscoping and turning videos into animated cartoons. ✔ Learning how to use Rotoscoping to add effects to Stop Motion videos. (Example: Making Lego Figures shoot cartoon lasers!) This is a LIVE class and is NOT pre-recorded. This class will be presented via cameras from the instructor. Students can interact with the instructor, as well ask ask questions during instruction. No writing or independent reading is necessary. Students are expected to communicate with the teacher. Communication, visuals, and hands-on instruction are all the things that I are important in helping the students get a better understanding of the subject.
Learning Goals
Students will learn to demonstrate understanding of the basics of animation development with FlipaClip through designing a character and learning various animation techniques.

Hi, my name is Raymond Mullikin. 👋
I am a professional cartoonist and credentialed teacher from San Luis Obispo, California.
I teach classes in Cartooning, Comic Book Printing and Publishing, 2D Cartoon Animation, Claymation/Stop Motion, Toy Figure Design, Video Game and App Coding, Creative Writing, etc.
I am also a professional illustrator/writer and Creative Director for Raytoons Comics. The Raytoons website is at Raytoons.Net. I have published cartoons in books, magazines, newspapers, and e-cards. I am an app designer who have designed my own games and software for schools and Appstores. I have also done past work in animation, creating animated film shorts for film festivals around the world.
I graduated from the University of Laverne with a Teaching Credential (2012) and a BA in Liberal Studies (2009). I also have certifications in Early Childhood Education, Technology and 2D Design. I've worked in education for 20+ years (including a few years in Special Ed) and have been doing contract teaching since 2009. I teach art and technology to children and adults of all ages.
How students approach a learning task can strongly influence the quality of their learning outcomes. For me, my approach is often very hands on (kinesthetic) with a lot of visual examples... That's how I've learned things, with a more creative approach. I have a lot of this in my instruction, with a mix of direct and interactive instruction with lots of Experiential Learning hands on!
It is also important to me to get feedback from both children and parents... Some kids have some very clever ideas! And, in teaching, there is always room for expansion of ideas and improving oneself.
I love drawing, comics, writing, creating my own games, and reading. Pretty much everything that I teach I enjoy and do professionally. I also enjoy teaching and thank all the parents and students willing to give me a try! 😃
