Description
goes for Sale Saturday 4/3 10 am
Have you ever wondered how your hand drawn characters would look in a finished shot; fully colored, lit, and roaming in a world you painted?
In 8 weeks, students will learn the basics of hand drawn animation to breathe life into their characters, while learning how to finish a shot from beginning to end. Knowing how to get a fully rendered shot will help you build the confidence to start your own animated productions, or prepare proof of concepts if you’d want to sell/pitch an idea of yours.
My name is Toniko Pantoja and I have served the animation industry as a Story Artist, Character Designer and 2D animator. I have worked in feature animation under Dreamworks Feature, Strange Weather Films, and Netflix, while also dabbling into other roles in the animation world – such as directing and animating trailers for clients.
Although I have worked in the industry fulfilling roles for other productions, at heart I love to make things where I am involved in every process. I am a graduate of calarts where we had to finish a film every year, and since then I still make animated productions from scratch to finish. I will also be sharing never before seen project files (Kipo, City of Secrets, PIG Dam Keeper Poems, etc) I did for these projects to show my animation overall process and pipeline.
By the end of this course, each student will have produced a finished shot with their animated character. This course is more of a workshop/mentorship rather than a class where I preach things.
8 Week course

Requirements:
– a 2d animation software. I have personally used TVPaint, Blender (free), Adobe Animate, Toonboom Harmony, but there are other options I have tried and used that I can also approve. It must be able to render in a movie format.
– A compositing program. This is the program you will use to combine your hand drawn animated characters with your backgrounds. Adobe After Effects is my popular choice, although Blender (free) is also very capable of compositing
