One-Week Workshop:
Session 4B (8/10/26 – 8/14/26)
Tuition: $999
Animation breathes life into drawings: making characters jump, fight, laugh, and express emotions that connect with audiences. From game attacks to animated shorts, learning to translate art into motion unlocks a powerful form of storytelling where artists control not just what characters look like, but how they move, feel, and come alive on screen.
Innovators will develop drawing fundamentals and animation techniques to make their artwork move with personality and impact. Students learn to create convincing motion, from crafting expressive character movements to building fluid animated sequences that capture action and emotion. Their ProjectFUN animation brings their unique vision to life frame-by-frame, demonstrating they can transform static art into dynamic storytelling.
Projects in this workshop may include: Creating an attack animation for a video game or creating a humorous animation.
