INTRODUCTION TO CLASSICAL ANIMATION PRINCIPLES: Starts July 13, 2009. Top animators agree: if you’re interested in animating, classical animation is the foundation that makes the difference.
In this course, you will be introduced to the classical principles of SQUASH & STRETCH, SECONDARY & OVERLAPPING ACTION, ANTICIPATION, ACTION & REACTION through several simple animated exercises that will teach the beginning animator about acting and timing on the small screen.
