term 1

Starting with the 12 Principles of Animation, you’ll learn 2D animation fundamentals and begin putting them into practice with your first 2D pieces: the bouncing ball, flour sack jump and a walk cycle.

You’ll discover how to add personality and emotion to your work while creating the illusion of three-dimensional space; learn key features of Toon Boom; and get familiar with drawing tools, posing, timing, spacing, the timeline, and X-sheet.

What will you learn?

  • How to make your own 2D animations from scratch
  • Use Toon Boom Harmony software
  • Apply the 12 Principles of Animation
  • Set up efficient workflows

*This short course is the same as the term one of the 2D Animation Diploma, so you’ll be a third of the way through the diploma course if you choose to continue your journey!
