This class will be directed toward older kids and adults, ages 11 and up, who have an interest in stylized characters and cartoons. We will be looking at famous cartoonists, and drawing inspiration from them. Taking basic shapes, and making a fun character with them! We will learn how to exaggerate features and bring to life a cartoony character. We will then bring the cartoon characters to life by doing storyboards and short comics. Practicing different poses and positions to illustrate the emotion and action of the story. We will also learn the basics of what goes into traditional cartoon animation. Hopefully by the end the students could make a flip book animation.
