Animation Course in Prem Nagar
Course Modules: WhatWill You Learn?
Introduction to Animation & Industry Overview
This module lays the foundation of your animation journey by introducing you to the core concepts and evolution of animation. You will learn about the history of traditional and digital animation, its application across media, and how the industry has grown globally. A major focus will be on the 12 Principles of Animation, including squash and stretch, anticipation, timing, and exaggeration, essential techniques that breathe life into animated characters and scenes.
Sketching, Storyboarding & Pre-Production
Before animation begins, visual planning is key. In this module, you will develop your sketching skills to design characters, backgrounds, and props from scratch. You will also learn how to create a storyboard, a scene-by-scene breakdown of your animation. These storyboards form the visual script of any animated content, mapping out transitions, character movements, dialogues, and camera angles. You will also explore animatics, which are rough animated versions of your storyboards.
2D Digital Animation
This module introduces you to the exciting world of 2D digital animation using software like Adobe Animate and Toon Boom Harmony. You’ll learn how to create animations using techniques such as keyframing, tweening, and frame-by-frame animation. You'll also explore how to add personality and movement to your characters with lip-syncing, facial expressions, and background animation. With hands-on exercises, you’ll create short 2D animations.
Motion Graphics & VFX Basics
In this module, you’ll explore motion graphics, a key element of animation used in marketing videos, YouTube intros, title sequences, and social media content. Using Adobe After Effects, you will learn how to animate text, shapes, and logos, and create transitions and effects that enhance visual storytelling. You will also be introduced to basic VFX techniques like green screen removal (chroma keying), masking, and particle effects to add realism and cinematic appeal to your animations. These skills are especially valuable in advertising and short-form video production.
3D Animation & Modeling
This module takes your creativity into the 3D space, where you’ll learn how to model, animate, and design 3D environments and characters using software like Autodesk Maya or Blender. Starting with the basics of interface navigation and object manipulation, you will move on to building 3D models through polygon modeling, sculpting, and modifiers. You will create assets like characters, props, and buildings, learning how to shape them realistically with form and proportion. This module opens doors to a wide range of animation possibilities in games, films.
Rigging & Character Animation
Once your 3D characters are built, they need to be rigged to move. In this module, you will learn the process of rigging, which includes creating a skeleton (bones and joints) and connecting it to your 3D model through skinning and weight painting. You’ll then animate these rigged models by crafting realistic body movements, walk cycles, hand gestures, and facial expressions. This module emphasizes performance animation, how to make your character express emotions, react to situations, and interact with the environment, bringing it to life in a professional manner.
