CSE 459 - SPECIAL TOPICS IN ANIMATION: CHARACTER ANIMATION - AUTUMN 2019

This course is offered to the Animation Capstone Students.

Students will complete weekly tutorials followed with exercises of their own design. The final project in the course will consist of the design and execution for motion related to several "signature" shots for the capstone film and start with the planning drawings and reference video to the completion of the shots including completed renders.
