Young adults and teens are invited to attend workshops exploring 2D animation and 3D Game Character Design at Campbelltown Arts Centre (C-A-C), facilitated by the Academy of Interactive Technology (AIT).

Part of the BLEED 2024 (Biennial Live Event in the Everyday Digital) Echo program, these 1.5 hour workshops are perfect for teenagers and young adults who are interested in digital arts and who would like to learn more about 2D animation and game design in 3D animation.

These workshops will take place at Campbelltown Arts Centre (C-A-C) from 1.00pm - 2.30pm on Saturday 28 September 2024.

Participants can choose from the following workshop options:

Introduction to 2D Animation - Students will learn the basic principles of 2D animation and get hands on to create a short animation in the form of a GIF using Brush Ninja/Pencil2D. They will require computers with internet access. The accessible online software for students is Brush Ninja. For more advanced students, Pencil2D can be used or if they have their own preference of animation software.

Introduction to 3D Game Character Design - Students will learn the basics of game character design and get hands-on to create a simple character modelling using Autodesk Tinkercad. Students will explore the fundamentals of 3D theory and modelling and understand the main functions of 3D character design. For more advanced students, students can animate their game character using Mixamo.

These workshops are suitable for teenagers and young adults 12+.

All participants will need to bring along their own device (preferably laptop) and have access to the internet as all applications used are free web-based tools.
