This course will provide you with an introduction to digital animation using Adobe Animate CC and Wacom Cintiq tablets.
You can have little or no previous animation knowledge to attend and still achieve great results.
During this course, you will:
learn the fundamentals of animation including timing and spacing
create animated ball bounces and walk cycles
study the movement of balloons and other objects
create character turnarounds
build your own short animation that demonstrates a personal approach.
By the end of the course you will have a good understanding of the Adobe software and its capabilities, and you will have produced a series of short projects that demonstrate your new skills in making crazy animated characters.
Social Events:
We appoint NTU Student Ambassadors who host social events on Monday and Wednesday evening to help you make friends across the whole of our summer school programme for 15 – 17 year olds, which are free to attend.
