Through a practice-based study of 2D animation, this course familiarises students with the basic principles that inform all animation. Students are introduced to a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional animation styles and the ideas and formal devices that constitute them are examined. Through a series of hand drawn line-testing exercises the student gains a practice-based experience of such core animation features as motion, human articulation and timing.
