Introduction to Toon Boom Harmony

Part of: Online Art and Design Courses

Course description

Toon Boom Harmony is a leading 2D animation software application used by independent artists, small studios and major animation companies.

In this hands-on, fast-paced course, you will gain the technical and conceptual skills required to create engaging 2D animations. This software has the tools to provide a wide set of styles that range from traditional cel-painted “cartoons,” to abstract living dreamscapes.

Topics include the fundamentals of animation motion-analysis and their application, understanding the essential tools and workflow of production, and useful tools within this software. You will have the opportunity to develop a short 2D animation for a portfolio or demo reel, and will learn through presentations, demonstrations, discussions and critiques.

Students are responsible for purchasing their own software.
