This course is an introduction to character design for CGI animation. Students will be taught how to work from concept to final character in this production-pipeline based course.Starting with model sheets, the students will learn the modeling techniques necessary to model and rig convincing and appealing characters. Utilizing the appropriate polygonal modeling methods, students will learn and apply organic modeling procedures. With the final goal of creating animation-ready characters and rigs, the students will practice the best methodologies for the extrapolation of 2D designs to 3D form. Students will also focus on muscle simulation and facial deformation.
