Storyboard

Creating a storyboard is crucial in making animation. Learn how to build your storyboard that you can use in any type of video work. Further your skills by making a draft based on the effects you designed on the storyboard.


Character and Background Design

Design your character and background with the finalized storyboard. We are going to use Photoshop but only some simple functions so don't worry if you're not too familiar with the program.


Learn Practical Skills and Tips that You Actually Will Need

Once you have the overall flow set, start working on each cut. You will learn how to design the background, and basic character movement such as walking, running, and moving their heads. These are not too complicated but you'll be using them a lot in any animation work. You can also apply these to come up with new motion designs.

Sohee

Hello everyone, my name is Sohee, and I am an Animator with 10 years of experience. I studied Classical Animation at Vancouver Film School, worked as a 2D animator at Disney. I've also worked with Naver Line, one of the popular apps in Korea and Japan, trailer for numerous webcomics and collaborated with IU on creating her concert video. My works were featured in various film festivals as well.

I started working as an animator because I enjoy making everyday objects alive, and it's been 10 years. There's something special about animation compared to taking pictures and keeping journals. I can deliver more stories and narratives that I can't easily convey. I would like to share this joy with you all.
