What Will You Learn?

• In a 2D animation course, you will learn the fundamental techniques and principles of 2D animation, which can include the following:
• 1. Drawing: You will learn the basics of drawing, including how to draw characters, objects, and backgrounds in 2D space. You will also learn how to create character designs and develop unique styles for your animation.
• 2. Storyboarding: You will learn how to create storyboards, which are the visual blueprints for your animation. Storyboarding involves creating a sequence of images that depict the main events and actions in your animation.
• 3. Keyframe animation: You will learn how to use keyframe animation to create movement and motion in your 2D animation. This involves creating key poses for the characters or objects in the animation and then filling in the gaps with intermediate frames.
• 4. Timing and spacing: You will learn how to control the timing and spacing of the frames in your animation to create smooth and realistic movement. This involves understanding the principles of animation, such as squash and stretch, easing in and out, and timing.
• 5. Sound design: You will learn how to incorporate sound effects and music into your 2D animation to create a more immersive and engaging experience for the audience.
• 6. Software tools: You will learn how to use specialized software tools to create and edit your 2D animation, such as Adobe Animate, Toon Boom Harmony, or TVPaint.
