With the purpose of meeting the continuous demand for specialized 3D character animators and the great need for visual effects artists, VIA University College, The Animation Workshop (TAW, VIA UC) conducted the two training activities 3D Character Animation in the spring and Visual Effects in fall 2018 (3DCA & VFX).3DCAThe 3DCA course took the participants through a series of lectures, assignments and mini-productions of increasing complexity in the field of 3D character animation, from concept to polish. Under the supervision of guest teachers who are all international and European animation professionals, the participants were introduced to the Maya modelling and animation software and to 3D character animation through a series of exercises designed to transfer the classical 2D animation principles onto a 3D platform. Focus was on the basic animation principles, body mechanics and physical action during basic training and then moved on to the advanced concepts of pantomime acting and dialogue animation. The course culminated in a 4,5-week final project, each student’s showreel masterpiece; a 20-30 seconds animated short film or game animation.VFXThrough the VFX course, participants get an understanding of the whole VFX pipeline and gain the right knowledge, skills, and confidence as VFX generalists. The VFX course equips highly creative and dedicated European computer graphics professionals with the knowledge and skills to create photorealistic computer graphics and integrate them seamlessly with live action footage. This ranged from set extensions to vehicles, trees, and other assets. Throughout the course, participants worked on their own final project, a short live action scene with integrated CG elements.
