2D Animation with AIT

This week, Year 9 Multimedia students had the pleasure of being joined by Juline from the Academy of Interactive Technology (AIT) to run a hands-on workshop around 2D Animation.

Students have been learning about a range of animation mediums throughout this term and have an upcoming project where they are able to work with a medium of their choice. This workshop gave students an additional medium to work with for their assessment task.

Juline went through the basics of 2D animation and then worked with students to come up with a simple character and a basic storyline on a storyboard. Students were then walked through how to use the “Pencil2D” software which allowed students to work with  concepts they have learned about in class such as onion skinning and key frames. 

We would like to sincerely thank Juline for taking time away from her busy schedule to share her skills with us at St Andrews as well as Ms May for always finding opportunities for our students to thrive.
