This course is suitable for students that have already solid skills in drawing and painting and want to experience the thrills of an animated project.
The course “Short film creation” is a significant creative endeavor focused on a single project, where practicing and aspiring 2D animators, artists, and composers come together in teams and work through the pipeline on a shared project. Each session of the course involves working on a new project, developed from scratch: from idea to final presentation.
The projects created participate in international competitions and festivals, serving as a showcase for all participants and adorning the walls of our school. Participation in such a project is a valuable experience in itself, but in addition, there’s always the possibility of winning recognition for the school’s short films in competitions or festivals, with awards for the winning participants (according to the terms).
In which direction can you participate in the project?
Visual Development – creating visual effects for the film: Character Design, Prop Design, Background Design, Still Frames.
Animation – producing rough and clean animation for the project.
Throughout the 4-month duration, the work is divided into stages, where one team completes their part of the work and passes it on to another. In any team, you will learn to work in studio conditions and see the project through to completion.
All project teams exchange ideas throughout the course, working on creating a color script, background layouts, character layouts, character and background coloring, and so on.
The teams will begin work on the new animation very soon. Details will come later, follow the news on social networks.
Places in teams are limited, it is better to take your place. You can select a team in the form of payment at the very bottom of the page. Record of progress with a portfolio.
