CARTOONY ANIMATION WORKSHOP

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

I teach a class at Animation Mentor called “Cartoony Animation for CG Animators” that I often take on the road. I’ve taught across North America, Europe and Asia. My teaching focus is on basic drawing skills that help CG animators up their skills.

WHY DRAWING?

Drawing can help you in every part of the CG animation process:
Experiment and invent
Pre-vis movement
Communicate ideas
Push poses
Observe life
Study other animators
