Course Objectives: | It is crucial for the students to take their technical skills to an advanced level while also broadening their intellectual scope by specializing on different areas. This course is also a necessity for gaining general knowledge about the intersection of communication, art and technology as well as enhancing creativity via interdisciplinary methods to develop skills for realizing projects. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I. To visualize concepts in time and motion. II. To be able to understand the language of the visual storytelling. III. To prepare drafts based on the script (frame, camera, acting, connecting the frames, duration of frames, sound etc.), and to communicate these aspects visually. IV. To be able to use different media and technologies successfully with respect to the expectations and necessities of the industry. V. To master several digital animation software such as Toon Boom Storyboard and Harmony. |
Animation is the act of bringing to life an idea, in its most essential sense. Digital animation is a form of storytelling using digital tools. Nevertheless it has its foundation in narrative, film and graphics. It is sequentially laying out a story in time and in motion. Different methods may be used in order to create an animation since it is the interdisciplinary combination for the exhibition of different kinds of imagery and motion. But the characters, atmosphere, storyline, graphics, sound, timing and editing are the basic ingredients. This course will be covering main concepts, history and techniques related to animation in the first half of the semester. In the second half we would be working on hands-on project by doing several in-class exercises. |
