Research Visual Development

AY2020/2021 Semester 2

In this advanced level course, you will apply visual research methodologies to create and develop original stories, characters and scenarios that are progressed through an animation pre-production process, culminating in a set of visual assets prepared for final production. You may work in any animation medium, including 2-D, 3-D, stop motion, puppet, game environment, abstract and experimental. You will employ a range of creative processes and problem-solving strategies as you explore and refine your concepts. This course builds upon the learning of previous animation courses, and prepares the way for a substantial animation production in following studies.
