Studio X Stop Motion

Cross-disciplinary projects mirror real-world projects and require a varied and sophisticated approach to problem-solving. (This course is cross-listed with ANM 498XS.)

Animal and Creature Animation

You will create animations that mimic real and stylized animal locomotion. Realistic creature rigs and animal reference will be analyzed to understand movement and muscles. You will apply research and physics to block and animate a quadruped. (This course is cross-listed with ANM 327.)

Traditional Animation Principles and Pipelines

Experience what it’s like to work as an assistant animator. To increase your ink and paint skills, you’ll learn digital and traditional tools to create a finished full color scene from rough animation.

Stop Motion

You’ll animate a stop motion puppet to better understand character expression, pantomime, and the process and principles of classic animation. (This course is cross-listed with ANM 380.)

Layout Design for Animators

Gain perspective. To learn the size and structure of an animation film production unit, you’ll analyze animated feature films, focusing on layout design, value, and structure.

Node-Based Compositing 2

Develop your ability to plan and solve problems in a production environment. You’ll apply independent skills you’ve acquired in Nuke and other software to real-world projects. (This course is cross-listed with ANM 441.)

Introduction to Maya

Welcome to 3D Modeling and Animation. We are going to look at the production pipeline that is common to most animation studios. To start a project, a character designer draws the concept, and the director must approve it before work continues. The drawings will then be handed off to the… Read More

3D Creature and Character Modeling

This course introduces students to form through digital sculpting. These techniques are used by 3D modelers in the animation, visual effects, video game, and toy industries. Students will explore the process of digitally sculpting a 3D character.
