In this six-week class, be prepared to reimagine ideas and designs as you learn what it takes to be an animator. Using animation principles and unconventional items, various drawing methods and practices will be explored. After multiple animation tests, students will then use their new skills to create a unique final animated short film.

This class is intended for students interested in learning the process of animation. This class is recommended for students with very little or no experience in animation.
