Did you know that major production studios needed to employ more than 300 animators to create such film favorites as Shrek and Monsters Inc.? Students in this course investigate how moving pictures are made by creating their own zoetrope strip. Once the strip is ready to be placed inside the zoetrope drum, students are able to watch their images come to life! Using a personal computer, students are introduced to the fields of both traditional and digital animation. While scanning material, colorizing frames and converting drawings into a movie, students engage in the hands-on processes of computer animation. With additional tools such as Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Flash and Apple QuickTime, students apply their newly developed skills to the animation process.
