So what is this course about? Well... it's awesome.

It teaches you all the basics of setting up for making stop-motion animation, as well as how to use Dragonframe, the industry standard for stop-motion.

We start by going over the basic principles of stop motion. What you'll need to setup a proper stop motion environment, as well as a quick overview of Dragonframe - the industry standard program for stop-motion animation.

After covering the basics of how stop motion works, we go over connecting and setting up a camera, as well as how to light our scene.

Then we show how to build a set for our animation sequence, and construct a clay character from scratch.

When our assets are ready, we get into animating all the shots for our sequence. We cover Dragonframe's planning tools, audio tools, onion skinning & toggling, and even lip syncing.

When our animation is ready, we show how to export our images from Dragonframe into an editing program such as Premiere, and learn how to use After Effects for rig removal and working with RAW files.
