The Principles of Animation, Anime Studio® Curriculum Guide was designed to teach students about the 12 Principles of Animation. These principles are the backbone for each lesson and serve two purposes: they are essential skills for any animation project (traditional or digital), and they provide a framework for learning Anime Studio.
The Anime Studio® Curriculum Guide comes with a fully licensed copy of Anime Studio Debut 6. Customers who already own Anime Studio can purchase the Curriculum Guide only version for just $49.99 with a valid serial number.
The Anime Studio® Curriculum Guide consists of 12 step-by-step written tutorials and video lessons focusing on the meaning of each principle, and how each principle can be demonstrated through sample animations created in Anime Studio. It also includes final versions of the projects students will complete, as well as sample files used in the lessons. At the end of each lesson, students will be able to complete a short quiz that they can easily tear out of the guide and turn in to their instructor.
Anime Studio provides an easy-to-use, yet powerful toolkit to help students animate quickly. It provides a framework to explore the art of visual thinking, helping students communicate through animated art. Anime Studio is a complete 2D solution for easily creating cartoons, anime or cut-out animations! Draw your own artwork and quickly animate your character with the revolutionary bone rigging system or choose from a library of ready-to-use characters, props, scenes, audio and more to start animating right away.
