During this one week course, participants will be introduced to all the methods of traditional 2D animation. Beginning with a quick introduction to the history and basics of frame-by-frame animation, participants will learn how to design and animate characters and backgrounds from scratch.

A very much hands-on experience, students will then be presented an example storyboard that they will use as a reference to create their own short animated film. Each participant will be given a random scene or two from this storyboard and design and animate their own character and background. At the end of the workshop, all of these scenes will be edited together, and the project will be screened as a whole.
