Wat is inbegrepen in deze cursus?
Begin by getting to know the members of Sociedad Fantasma as they tell you about who they are and their philosophy as a studio. They also share how some of their biggest influences have shaped their work.
Continue by laying the groundwork for your micro-story. Extract key concepts from the client brief and put together a mood board to define the look and feel of your animated piece before mapping out its structure in three acts. Develop the concept for your main character and determine what After Effects assets you need.
Next, your teachers guide you through the character design process, from the first sketches and the style sheet to their final form ready for animation.
Now it's time to set your characters in motion! The Sociedad Fantasma team teaches you some basic concepts such as precomposing, parenting, and what animation curves are used for.
Then, learn all about rigging your character, setting keyframes for their movements, and how to make your animation flow seamlessly with tweening tricks.
Wrap up the course by creating a background for your scene, followed by the final render.
