Description:

The 2D Animation concentration is a second year option of the Digital Animation diploma program.

The 2D Animation concentration begins in the second semester of the Digital Animation diploma program. This concentration develops advanced skills in life drawing, structural drawing, anatomy, and perspective, which you will apply to your animation artwork. You will learn how to animate a digitally hand-drawn character using the twelve principles of animation, so that the character moves in a convincing manner and expresses emotion. You will also have the opportunity to create other types of animation, such as special effects and experimental animation. You will develop an understanding of the production pipeline. As you combine all these skills, at the end of your two years, you will create professional-quality animation for your portfolio.
