DES 301 Digital Storytelling through Time-based Motion Graphics

Digital storytelling begins with the research of interdisciplinary works and utilizes the process of interpretation and form storming of new narratives. Students use the fundamentals of character design, archetypes, and animation principles to create personas for varied genres and media. These characters and design elements will be the basis for storytelling using storyboarding, industry standard software and time-based media to create motion graphics for film, TV, and animation. Design techniques and processes include sketching, digital illustration, storyboarding, and an introduction to time-based media including Adobe Premiere and After Effects.
