Have you ever wondered how animated cartoons are made without computers? Then you will probably have lots of fun in this hands-on workshop! We create a complete cartoon animation, and everyone contributes an original animated scene.

Class experience


- Students learn to create original cartoon character designs, storyboards, and hand-drawn animated sequences 

- During brainstorming sessions students contribute verbal and illustrated responses to generate character ideas, names, and story plots

- Through classroom activities, students learn to array of traditional animation production  techniques which include: lighting, image registration, frame-rates, and editing

- Using traditional storyboarding techniques, students practice how to quickly communicate their concepts and contributions

- With practice, students demonstrate the practical use of animated "cycles", "squash-and-stretch", "anticipation", "gravity", and "implied motion"
Homework Offered
There can be approximately 1-3 hours of optional drawing and animation homework per week (depending upon each student's interest and motivation).
