What makes a good storyAnd for your character, you only need a Body, Arms, Legs and a Mouth. Eyes are optional.If a simple circle has personality, people will watch it.Our personal purpose is to help anyone interested in Animation to start practicing with little projects, simple Characters, and most of all, explore the expressiveness of their Body Language and Character Acting.Many people seldom to start learning 2D animation because they are convinced that you need to know how to draw.While drawing skills can help you to improve, that is not the essential skill to do animation. For animation you need to understand the most basic principles in animation, like timing, anticipation, pose to pose.Concepts that Thomas and Johnson, 2 of the animation masters in Disney talk about in their famous book, Illusion of Life.This course puts those basic concepts into practice and also explains step by step how to achieve great body language when a character is talking.What you will get:Lifetime Access to all the Lessons: This is not a membership course.
