Anything from stick figures to Disney-level results. Toon Boom Harmony is an incredibly robust professional-level animation software, and can do pretty much anything in the realm of 2D animation. There’s enough in this course for the person who wants to make cool short animations for YouTube, as well as for the working professional who wants to get hired as a 2D animator. Experienced or Newbies.Īs an animator, I’ve designed this course to be tailored specifically for people who want to get into 2D animation in the most professional way. We’ll add special effects, camera movement in 3D space and export the final shot in different formats. Over the course of this program you’ll see how an entire fully-animated shot is produced. We’ll also see how to set up mouth shapes for automatic lip-syncing. Rig a CharacterĪfter we cover the traditional side of 2D animation, we’ll use Harmony’s advanced rigging tools to bone-rig a character using cutout rigs, puppet rigging and deformation. We’ll start animating our shot with traditional frame-by-frame animation, going through all the steps from planning the key poses, roughing out the animation, clean up and coloring. We’ll learn how to create the outline and the fill for our characters, as well as adding special effects.

We’ll go over different way to import or create artwork for your shot. We’ll start by going over the Toon Boom interface and understand how to work with different display views and how to use the X-sheet like a traditional animator. In this course I will take you step by step through all the tools and methods for character using Toon Boom Harmony.
