Summer-Winter Schools
Introduction to the Summer School
From its inception in the early 20th century animation fascinated its followers with the fact that it created an opportunity to express their story without restriction. Animation allows you to implement any idea and express your emotions without limitations – it is only you and your idea.
Nowadays, this art is available to everyone. All it takes is only your willpower, because the technical possibilities are now more advanced than ever before.
3D Animation World is a specially designed summer school for those, who are swept away by the possibility to brighten up your drawn fantasies to life in 2D and 3D world! This Summer School is an introduction to the entire process of animation: drawing sessions, character design, cinematic storytelling, object animation, opportunity to work with editing, space, timing, cut-out and stop motion, interaction and 3D modelling programmes. It combines the creative and technical aspects of 2D and 3D animation with information about today’s animation industry.
3D Animation World will involve academic classes, practical group work, organization visits, cultural and leisure activities. The course aims to increase students’ knowledge of the entire process of animation and visual narrative and improve the participant’s practical skills and techniques.
