Which are the various courses for Animation and how are they different?

There are majorly 5 types of animation in India as of now. All of them are mentioned below: Introductory Animation: This animation course exposes student to the range of traditional and digital techniques used in stop-motion, claymation, 2-D or 3-D computer animation. Students learn basic theory and mechanics behind. Animation develop observational and drawing skills and study the fundamental principles of character design, layout and storyboarding. 2-Dimensional Animation: Through lectures, demonstrations and hands-on exercises, animation students learn squash and stretch, follow-through, keyframing and overlap techniques while creating their own short animation projects. This is one of the first classes future animators take to learn basic animation skills. Storyboarding for Animation: The animation is designed on storyboards. Students learn basic animation theory and mechanics, develop observational and drawing skills and study the fundamental principles of character design, layout and storyboarding in this class. Storyboards are created for each animated character and a rough version of the animation is put together. This practice is called animatic. 3-Dimensional Animation: Specialized software, such as Studio-Max and Autodesk Maya, are used to create 3-dimensional images for animations. Much of this class is spent becoming familiar with the software and creating short 3-dimensional animations used for film or video games. Students should complete 2-dimensional animation course before taking this course. Computer Animation: Creating animations that are synthesized on the computer is the focus of this course. Computer generated lighting and backgrounds are used with original characters developed by students. Computer animation production techniques are used to create a short animation project. Animation Throughout History: In this course, students learn how styles and techniques in animation have changed over time. Reviewing animation from the first animated films to present feature-length animations gives a student perspective on this rapidly changing art form. This is an elective course.
