What You Will Learn?

  • Hellooo! I’m Russ, today we’re going to make some hand drawn animation without drawing a single line! And for this we’ll be using Adobe After Effects..
  • I’m a Freelance Animator and Director based in Brighton UK. I’ve worked professionally for over 10 years in animation producing VFX, motion design, 2D and 3D character animation..
  • I get asked quite often to animate things in Adobe After Effects to make it look drawn. Whether that’s because it needs to sit beside actual drawn animation or because there’s no time to do it ‘properly’, either way it’s super useful to know how to get an effective drawn effect..
  • This class will be great for both hand drawn animators needing to add some extra elements to their main work, or for after effects animators to work along side your traditional colleagues.
  • I’ll be taking you through step by step so this class should be suitable for beginners or if you’re fairly new to Adobe After Effects..
  • We will be covering:.
  • I hope that once you have completed this course you’ll have the knowledge of not only how to make your Adobe After Effects animation look drawn but which effects are the right ones to use for different situations..
