Learn animation techniques for bringing 3D models to life with professional workflows
Animation brings static 3D models to life. Our animation programs teach principles of motion, timing, weight, and performance.
From basic keyframe animation to character performances with facial expressions and body mechanics, you'll learn techniques used in film and game production. Understanding anticipation, follow-through, and other principles will develop your animation skills.
Start AnimatingLearn the 12 principles of animation including timing, spacing, squash and stretch, anticipation, follow-through, and arcs for believable motion
Build flexible control rigs for characters and objects, including FK/IK systems, constraints, custom controllers, and facial rig setups for full performance control
Learn efficient keyframing workflows, graph editor mastery, curve manipulation, and techniques for creating smooth, natural motion with proper weight and timing
Develop skills in animation acting, facial expressions, body language, weight shifts, and creating character performances
Create dynamic motion graphics, logo animations, abstract visual effects, and commercial content for advertising, broadcast, and digital media applications
Explore procedural animation, physics simulations, cloth and hair dynamics, motion capture cleanup, and optimization strategies for different output platforms
Develop concepts, gather video reference, create thumbnails, and plan your animation timing before touching the software for efficient production
Establish key poses and major movements to define the overall action, timing, and storytelling beats of your animation sequence
Add breakdown poses, adjust timing curves, refine arcs, and polish the motion for smooth, professional results with proper weight and appeal
Add secondary motion, overlapping action, final polish touches, and prepare your animation for rendering, export, or integration into production pipeline
