Homework for Monday

Read the following excerpt (pages 24-63) from the animator's survival kit, provided at this link!

Create 3 Ball bounces for me in ToonBoom Harmony! Bring your work to class finished! We will make these into videos at the start of class Monday!  Below is a list of notes that we have covered in class.

  • Remember to make a sketch layer first to draw your animation, then make a cleanup layer to continue working!
  • It may help to work alongside another classmate to make sure your work is telling a good story!
