ANI 105: Motion Graphics Foundations

This course introduces the basic principles of composition, color, light, and motion as applied to cinema and animation. Design for screen, staging, effective use of text, graphical elements, video, and motion are covered. These skills will be applied in projects that stress conceptual and technical development. Students who have completed GD 105 or ART 105 are advised NOT to take ANI 105. Those courses cover similar material and may be substituted in place of ANI 105.
