What You Will Learn?
- Welcome to my first Skillshare class!.
- My name is Vera and I am a freelance illustrator and animator from Hamburg, Germany..
- In this class, I will teach you how I design characters that tell a story within themselves, and show you, how to create a 2D animation with them..
- I recommend this class for a bit more advanced students. But as long as you are feeling confident and are up for a challenge, I encourage every artist to join in! Designing for animation will help you understand characters and movement, and show you a whole lot of possibilities for making your art more exciting..
- I will show you how I approach character design with a sense of storytelling, that will be applicable for a little looped 2D animation. You can tag along in my process step by step, and either follow my self-imposed assignment (see class project description), or come up with your own assignment for the character..
