Course Information
Course Overview
Learn the principles of animation that create the magical illusion of life.
Animation is not a bunch of drawings that look good, it's a bunch of drawings that move good.
Anyone can pick up a pencil and some paper, or nowadays buy a software, and start animating. But it takes knowing the principles of motion to create believable movement and convincing characters. I am talking the stuff that captures an audience for 90 minutes, in a feature film, even when they know full well it's just a bunch of cartoon characters.
My name is Yakir, I am a 2d character animator and director.
In my course you will learn the following principles of animation:
- Timing and Spacing
- Secondary Action
- Anticipation
- Squash and Stretch
- Walks
- Acting
There will be a video for each one where I show you the animation principle, show you examples and give you a cool assignment so you can try it out yourself!
Do you want to know the magic of animation? then let's get started!

It is a great course, even for advanced animation. I liked it, would be nicer if he added more examples, the course is short. I want more courses by him.
