Digital Animation in 2D
Create an animated piece full of bizarre humor
In this course by Paulo Mosca and Abel Sánchez (TRIMONO), learn to produce an animated piece with a large dose of elegance and madness. To do this, dive into the subconscious of these two graphic designers specialized in animation, who help you resolve a proposed audiovisual content in an unconventional way.
In the words of the authors, you learn “a lot of tricks to produce an animation piece, plus a tire for monkey-like levels of fun.”
Begin by getting to know the work of TRIMONO as well as their influences.
Next, delve into the incredible world of idea generation, script writing, storyboarding, and the basics of animatics. Immerse yourself in the creation and design of characters and backgrounds, and learn the basics of drawing in an alluring style.
After the theory comes the practice. In the next phase, see how to define the layout or the composition of elements until everything is “in place and crystal clear.”
Then do your first animation sketch, tidy up the lines, and add color during the clean-up phase. Add lights and shadows in post-production and, once the final version is ready, take a look at the best ways to promote your work.
