What You Will Learn
Foundations
Cinematography & Photography Basics
Framing, camera angles, light and composition. Understanding how a real camera works makes animated and CG shots feel natural.
Perspective & Character Design
Drawing in perspective to build believable space, and designing characters with clear shapes, personality and appeal.
Motion Graphics
Animating text, graphics and design elements for titles, advertisements, explainers and social media.
3D and animation
Understanding CG Pipeline
How a computer-generated shot moves through stages, from building a model to the final output, and how each stage hands work on to the next.
Textures and Details
Adding the surface colour and detail that make a 3D model read as wood, metal, fabric or skin.
Bringing Characters to Life with Rigging
Building the internal skeleton and controls that let an animator pose and move a character.
Lighting Techniques
Using CG light to set mood, guide the viewer's eye and make a scene believable.
Animation
Timing, spacing and weight: the principles that give characters and objects convincing movement.
Rendering and visual effects
Rendering and Post Processing
Turning a scene into final frames, then refining colour and finish in post processing.
3D FX, Dynamics and Simulations
Effects such as smoke, fire, water and debris, driven by simulations of physical behaviour.
Procedural FX with Houdini
Houdini's node-based, procedural approach to effects, so they can be adjusted and reused instead of animated by hand.
Advanced Roto with Silhouette
Isolating people and objects in live footage frame by frame in Silhouette, so CG and effects can be placed into the shot.
