About this course

This course discusses how to approach animation as an art form, not just a technical process. Any concept explained in this course can be applied to any tool or software, even if not Autodesk Maya, which is explaining through the course. The course starts by explaining a simple motion of a bouncing ball, the forces affecting it, how to elaborate them in your animation, understanding ball rotation, and adding exaggeration through squish and stretch. You will dive into an overlapping action exercise that emphasizes the effects of weight and gravity on a moving object without inner motivation.

Course requirements and prerequisites

For this course, you will need to install Autodesk Maya. The version of the program will be mentioned by the mentor at the beginning of the course.
