- Read the first chapter in both the HTCM and Character Animation texts.
- Complete one hand-drawn (method of your choice, but ToonBoom Studio or ToonBoom Animate would make it easier; it’s ok if this one is water-marked) and one Maya ball-bounce animation (simple straight up-and-down, at least 3 or 4 bounces).
- Bring your two 1280×720 h.264 .mov files to present on Monday, August 25. (See useful links post for help on image sequences). No project files needed, yet. These will also be placed on Dropbox — look for an invite over the weekend.
- Brainstorm visual settings, characters, and motivations that could work for a short animated movie. Reduce this list to your top 3 story setups to bring and discuss on Monday, August 25.
- Watch the documentary Pencils to Pixels.
