Enroll now! As a designer, the versatility and accessibility of Tools for 2D Animation will make it easy for you to create games with a distinctive, high-quality visual style"

In the video game industry, Tools for 2D Animation provide artists and animators with the ability to bring in-game graphical elements to life by manipulating two-dimensional images, creating fluid motion sequences that enhance player immersion. In other words, they play a crucial role in enabling designers to create captivating visual worlds and dynamic characters. In addition, their efficiency and flexibility make it possible to explore a wide range of artistic styles and experiment with animation.

In this context, TECH has designed this Postgraduate Diploma, which will delve into the 2D Language, analyzing aspects such as frames, frame exposure, animation types and 2D styles. In addition, the development of audiovisual scripts will be addressed, including precursors of the script, synopsis, rundown and the use of applications such as Storybeats. The concepts of graphic, cinematographic and audiovisual language will also be introduced, including shots, camera movements and editing.

The professionals will also use specific digital tools for 2D animation, highlighting aspects such as the importance of storyboarding in narrative and production, and voice recording and editing. Likewise, the syllabus will delve into the use of software, such as Storyboard Pro, and will present digital alternatives, in programs such as Photoshop, Adobe Animate and After Effects.

Likewise, character design, the creation of guides, model sheets and text interpretation will be addressed. Likewise, professionals will dive into acting tools, pantomime, facial expressions and dialogue animation, incorporating the contribution of the voice actor. This syllabus will culminate with workshops on body animation, facial acting and vocal synchronization.

This educational proposal from TECH will revolutionize the graduate experience by introducing a completely digital and flexible approach. This innovative initiative will empower students, giving them the freedom to organize their academic agenda autonomously, enabling them to combine their personal and work responsibilities more effectively.
