Wick Editor でアニメーションを始める

So, you want to get started on animation! There is plenty of big-name animation software that recognizable animation studios use, but many of them are not free or hard to navigate. Well, allow us to help you get started with a quick and easy to use animation program, Wick editor! 

With Wick Editor, students will learn how to use all the basic tools to get started on their animation journey; no prior experience needed! Alongside their instructor, students will get hands-on experience with animation and develop techniques to improve their animation skills! Each session covers a fundamental animation technique, covered over the course of a week:

>>> Session 1: Introduction and Basic Skills
            Students will be introduced to the program as we explore what tools Wick Editor has to offer. As we become accustomed to the interface, we will learn the basic skills to get started on our animation journey. 
>>> Session 2: Principles and Planning
            Once students know the basics to animation, we’ll move on to learning some essential principles to making an animation clean and lively! With these skills under our belt, students will be able to begin planning the ideal character for their short and sweet animation.
>>> Session 3: Audios, Animatics, and Timing
            With a plan in hand, it’s time to start laying out the timeline! Students will learn what an animatic is and how to make one with accompanying music and sound effects! By the end of this session, students will have an animatic synced to their audio with a timing plan ready for animation!
>>> Session 4: The Animation Process
            The plan is laid out, so now it’s time to put that plan in motion! Students will learn multiple ways to add motion to their drawings so they can add the in between frames through whatever method suits them most! Between tweening, frame- by-frame, or a mixture of the two, there's an endless amount of ways that anyone can animate!
>>> Session 5: Effects and Final Touches
            We’re almost done with our animation; time to add the finishing touches. Are you missing a background? Let’s add that in! Want to add some subtitles? We can add that too! This final session will be used to help students add whatever extra details they wish to add to polish their final product. Feel free to show off your art when you are done!

Since Wick is browser-embedded software, there is no pre-installation needed and no previous animation experience needed for this camp!

We hope to see you soon this summer. Happy animating!
