映画で素晴らしいアニメーション効果を作る - ロトスコープ入門! (対象年齢 12 ～ 18 歳)

In this class, students learn how to create their own animation cartoon film through the process called "Rotoscoping", the process of manually altering film footage one frame at a time. Many animated films, old and new, from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" to "A Scanner Darkly" and "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse", were all created using rotoscoping effects. 

This class gives students the skills to turn whatever fantastical things they can imagine into reality. 

Live classes will be held once per week, for an hour per session, for three weeks. 

ITINERARY:

        (Using Comica Video is optional.)

        (If they used Comica Video to convert a video, they can improve the animation in Flipaclip.)

【Materials Needed】

✓ Comica Video (or some other video effects software): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gr.video.comica&hl=en_US&gl=US

📢 Please install Zoom on the same device as the Flipaclip. That way the instructor will be able to see what the student is doing and be able to help the student if they are having any difficulties. And it makes it much easier for the student to share their videos with the rest of the class.

This is a LIVE class and is NOT pre-recorded.  
This class will be presented via cameras from the instructor. He will have one camera at his face and another will be at the table where he is drawing, so that the student can see the instructor as speaks, and be able to observe step-by-step what the instructor is doing. 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.
