Pilar Guerrero and Jorge Tortosa, graphic designers and founders of the MODIK design studio, teach you how to make a 2D microanimation with After Effects. A microanimation is a very short piece that performs a specific action, which can be promoted in video or GIF format.

In this online course, Pilar and Jorge use a small traveling circus as an example to teach you the best tricks to illustrate and animate characters as diverse as the strongman, the tamer, the contortionist, and the tightrope walker.

## Zawartość

### Introduction

To go step by step, we are going to tell you who we are, what our work consists of and what are the influences that haunt us every day.

### Casting of characters

In this unit, we are mainly going to document ourselves. We will look for images referring to the world of the circus so that we can define how our characters are going to be, how they will dress and skills they will show us. The world of the circus is very broad and we have absolute freedom so that, within our own style, we choose, as in a casting, our artists. Humor, extravagance, theatricality ... are elements intimately linked to the circus. Choose which ones we like and would like to represent the most.

### Encourage your characters

First of all, let's start learning about the After Effects program. Once we have established the basic knowledge, we will deepen and learn more advanced techniques, which we will apply to each of our artists.

### Final staging

For this final part of the course, we will assemble the circus tent and then prepare the final staging for all the artists together to make the great show.
