Description
Always wondered about animation? Are you curious about art and technology and eager to learn more? In this hands-on camp, we’ll dive into the fundamentals of animation, exploring various tools and art-making applications to create a final product. We’ll focus on the story you want to tell and cover basic animation principles, learning how to apply them to digital art. As a group, we’ll unpack technical concepts and collaborate to find ways to improve our craft. By the end of the camp, participants will feel empowered with the tools and knowledge to continue their journey in the world of animation.

Theresa Ganzer

While she started as a traditional painter, animation and digital illustration eventually won her over and she has not stopped developing her skills since. Last year she received a mobile UX certification and has been exploring the world of HTML and CSS. Theresa is an avid hiker and loves talking about her cats when she is not making art.
