It’s been an interesting year for Animation & Sequential Arts. With remote learning in place, we had to adjust our projects to meet varying levels of tech available to the students. The entire class celebrated Artober this year with student-made daily prompts for the month-long ink-based celebration of illustration. First-year students concentrated on the basics of figure drawing then learned to warp those basic rules in our character design unit. Second-year students revisited character design to build on the skills they acquired last year. Then they dove head-first into a long term animation project in one of our favorite programs, Aseprite. We hope you enjoy the work of this very talented group of young animators!
