9 Sessions - 90 minutes each Welcome to the After-School iPad Art Studio. Students are invited to bring their own iPads, along with their biggest ideas and passion projects, so we can help bring them to life. Together, we will dive into the exciting worlds of digital painting, animation, 3D modeling, and 3D printing. Participants will get hands-on experience mastering incredible apps like Procreate, Procreate Dreams, Nomad Sculpt, Adobe Photoshop, Fresco & Animate. Our goal is to teach these wonderful applications while fostering a fun, relaxed, and open-studio environment. Whether collaborating on a group endeavor or tackling a solo masterpiece, students will create with the dedicated guidance and coaching of an experienced digital artist. To ensure every artist has the tools they need to succeed, all students will have full access to our studio iMacs equipped with Nomad Sculpt and the Adobe Creative Suite as a fantastic alternative to personal devices. However, because the most authentic and intuitive digital drawing experience is truly best captured on your tablet, we highly encourage students to bring their own devices. Please note that iPad applications Procreate, Procreate Dreams and Nomad Sculpt, are not provided by the school and will need to be purchased individually. 2nd Trimester: Animation In the second trimester, we will bring our artwork into motion with a deep dive into animation! Utilizing Procreate Dreams, or Adobe Animate (alternative on our studio iMacs), students will learn fundamentals of creating 2D animations. We will study the foundational 12 principles of animation, and practice using professional tools and techniques required to create lively, engaging 2D cartoons from scratch.
