DDA-350 3D Animation II

3 Credits

This course builds on the foundation established in 3D Modeling I and II, and Animation I, with a focus on intermediate to advanced character rigging and animation techniques. Students will continue to apply the classic principles of animation, this time using more robust characters of their own design- facial animation and rigging for lip sync will allow them to convey a full range of expression, gesture and convincing motion. In addition to two assignments, students will complete several in-class exercises, each demonstrating their mastery of a core principle, followed by critique and discussion.
