Overview

Studying Animation opens the door to a unique form of art that takes a great extent of persistence, passion and patience to produce marvel on screen. You will learn how to bring life to your drawings/CGI (computer-generated imagery), creating an illusion of spirit and vigour. You will caricature the gestures and expressions in the drawings/CGI, giving them a fantastic array of characters and personalities, and making audiences believe that the drawings/CGI can actually think and have feelings. This course gives you skills to dramatize and caricature the life of characters acting and reacting on screen. The value of your work will be determined by the ability of swaying the emotions of the audiences by means of making the characters act.
