Workshops are on Thursdays: June 12, 19, & 26, 9 AM to 4 PM (with lunch break) at Laney College
Building A-Graphic Arts, Room 152. Teacher: Tony Claar, 30 years professional experience.
The cost is only $35. for each one-day workshop. Come to one, two, or all three!
Students will learn to draw simple objects & characters and animate
short exercises, will do stop-motion with clay and humans (themselves), and will
also get a crash course in Digicel Flipbook professional software. Great
animated short films will be shown, too. All the principles and the basics of
how to animate will be covered, including timing, squash & stretch, & anticipation. Students will also learn how to do
special effects like explosions, smoke, water, etc. and can make their own
short movie to take home! Students bring their own USB flash drive &
their own digital camera, if they have one ( a smart phone with built-in camera will work IF it has a hole in the bottom where a tripod can be secured). Laney College will provide a few
digital cameras & a scanner, plus Cintiqs.
It will be a fun introduction to animation from a professional animator
with experience at Disney, Mtv, Hollywood movies and TV series, with hands-on
training for beginning levels. The 2nd & 3rd workshops will offer more
challenging exercises for those who want them. Each class will also stand alone
for those who can only come once or twice. Any level of experience or no
experience is OK.
Each all-day workshop is for anyone ages 14 & up and the cost is
only $35. Register by emailing the teacher and you will be registered:
claartoons@comcast.net. Pay by check through regular mail or bring cash or check to the
class.
