There are animation principles to be learnt alongside understanding acting and performance. This is further complicated by the fact that, before you can even start your first basic exercise, you must learn to use a complex software application.

This class is designed to teach you the software essentials that you need to get started without being overwhelming.

Blender is a powerful application, providing everything that is required to create high quality character animation. But, with that power comes complexity. Thankfully, as an animator, you will only ever need to know a small subset of the features available in the application.

This class will teach you the absolute essentials that you need to get started and provide a solid foundation of knowledge which we will build upon in the future.

By the end of this class, you will have created your first simple animated scene in Blender, and you will be ready to start learning character animation with confidence.
