The Next Generation
Our family is growing this year as we put the finishing touches on the newest additions to our animation character library. This Spring, Stan, Stella, and Scout will be put into the hands of you, our students, beginning with our intermediate Animation Fundamentals and intermediate VFX Fundamentals classes. That’s right, these characters are all surfaced and ready for lighting.
Just for You: The Storyteller
These characters were designed from the ground up with animation and storytelling in mind. We worked with the amazingly talented character designer, Deisign, to develop the look and feel of our tribe. He was able to strike the perfect balance of style and simplicity to put the power of story into your hands.
Our rigger took that same concept of empowering you, the artist, and brought these characters to the next level. The controls are intuitive to use, but give a depth of control that will surprise you. The sheer expressiveness of the characters blew us away. These characters in motion are truly inspiring.
It’s Time to Begin
We can’t wait to animate them ourselves — but the true excitement is waiting to see what you, our Animation Mentor community, will create.
