This course is about Character Acting and Body Mechanics. Students will gain understanding on how a character’s body moves and what motivates a move. They will learn how to use live action reference and what to look for in that reference.
The course provides production experience: thumbnail storyboards, model sheets, background design, and basic rules of cinema.
The goal is to give students a proper foundation (timing, staging, appeal)
and workflow best practices to use when they move to advanced animation
classes.
