Description

Hola, me nombre skye sta sui yo ⤴ Well, it's an animated picture of me. I am an illustrator and motion graphic designer and I am very happy to teach you how to animate images with the puppet tool. I know that animations are more interactive than static images in social networks and online content. I also know that more and more illustration jobs require animation skills. If you're looking to boost your online portfolio or just want to learn a little more about animation, this course is a fun, hands-on exploration of how to design and animate defect images using tools. Follow me as I teach you: Discover how to draw and separate images into functional layers for Puppet and Keyframe animation in After Effects below! This class is aimed at illustrators or designers who want to get more attention for their work or simply want to start animating their designs. Students will need knowledge of how to use a drawing program such as Procreate to follow this class. Don't worry if you don't know anything about After Effects, I didn't when I started. I'll walk you through the entire process step-by-step, from importing to creating keyframes. Let's start the animation!

Hi there!

My name is Kay and I’m a London-based Illustrator and Designer for Motion. I find inspiration in oddities, individuality and humour. I can’t help myself when it comes to drawing cute, sometimes irreverent but always lovable characters!

I work a lot on animations, which I love, working closely with creative teams and animators to brainstorm concepts, create storyboards and build assets and characters ready for animation.
