A course by Tom Fox
Tom Fox is a figure drawing instructor and storyboard artist who has worked in the animation industry for more than ten years.

As well as working as a professional storyboard artist, Tom focuses on reducing complex subjects like perspective and anatomy into an easy-to-follow process for teaching online.
