Description

This course focuses on design from a problem-solving perspective while exploring the full production timeline. Students will be introduced to the fundamental concepts, principles, and techniques of motion design while becoming proficient in motion-based software. Key topics include planning and organizing through storyboards and animatics, applying kinetics and animation principles, and understanding sequencing, composition, visual variables, and narrative storytelling.
