Eng subs

After graduating from Gobelins, France, 2D animator Jongha Yoon went on to collaborate with famous companies such as Adobe and Riot Games, and participated in the production of music videos for BTS and Tomorrow by Together. He is now ready to show you how to create high-quality animations based on calculations and theories, so you don’t have to rely solely on your senses. Even just one well-animated character can make your videos stand out!

You’ll learn:
Practicing Essential Movements in Character Animation
Walking and running are basic human movements, and there are various theories of walking and running, such as the bouncing ball, arc, timing, and follow-through. Let’s see how the pelvis, feet, and back of the hands move along with the types of walking.

Understanding Various Ways of Expression for Each Situation
You compare good and bad animations and figure out common mistakes. In this way, you will learn various ways of expression appropriate for different situations.

Understanding of character volume and original drawing (key poses)
If you make take advantage of key poses, you will be able to communicate information more effectively in a limited time. That way, you will learn what a ‘good picture’ is that is optimized for character animation.

Understanding detailed movements of clothes, fur, hair, etc.
Unlike hands and feet that move actively, clothes and hair have passive movement. Let’s see how we can work on these parts.

Elements that make character animation richer
Well-crafted finishing moves and preparatory moves give the character a richer and deeper movement. Learn additional animations suitable for various situations, such as the character’s energy and weight.

Photorealistic/3D background animation techniques frequently used
In practice, animation is often inserted in photorealistic or 3D backgrounds. Approach it based on an understanding of a sense of space and learn about other techniques used in practice.
