Class Description
ABOUT OLIVER'S CLASS:
In this class, you won’t just learn how to create text animation, but rather the fundamentals and understanding of animation that lies behind. Using the principles of animation, such as squash & stretch, as well as the laws of physics, you will get a better understanding of how to make animation get a sense of weight. That includes learning why and when to use certain techniques, and not just how to use them. The class is for any skill level - trained professionals that want to dive deeper and learn new techniques, or beginners that want to get started in the field.
