The basics of (graphic) animation as well as advanced techniques are taught.

Content:
Moving typo, characters, logo and icon animation, expressions, render settings and web publication with Lottie or GIF, various plugins and, if we have time, frame by frame in PS and combination with AE.

In the lecture we will work on practice examples and self-created animations.

Prerequisite:
Creating and working with compositions, setting and adjusting keyframes and timeline length as well as dealing with the user interface, i.e. knowledge of the various setting options from preview to effects should be available and is assumed as a basis in the course.
A solid basic knowledge of paths and their editing is also required, as well as knowledge of Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer.

Grading: 

I will grade attendance and participation. There are 8 dates, of which at least 5 must be attended to receive a grade. In case of an unplanned absence (workshop/work/illness,...) it is maybe possible to make up the work with online files. Therefore, please always mail in advance if you know you can't come.

Registrations:

Most often there are more registrations than we have seats in the computer studio. Therefore, at the very beginning of the first session, I will call the present students in the order of their registration and assign the 14 available places. 

External students will be assigned after regular students. 

So please come on time if you want a place in the VU.

If you know earlier that you cannot attend the class, please sign out in the base!
