CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD

Content
  • Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:

    In 3D Work workshop we concentrate on the actual everyday work one has to do to achieve anything in this very time-consuming art. Students will work five days on their idea for the 3D Animation- course s spring animation project.

    Discussed abstract and concrete subjects: Pre-visualization (storyboarding, animatic, blocking), project planning (goal and schedule), the characteristics of animation in general, keyframing the character, camera work etc.

    Only students who will do a spring animation project (in 3D Animation-course) can attend. This is basically of no use for anyone else, because you can get credits from this workshop only by starting to work on your project.

    The main purpose of this workshop is to get student's animation projects started.
