FROM STAGING TO FINALING
Objectives of the bootcamp
Dive into the magical world of animation with this refreshing bootcamp for all level animators. Over three days, I propose to push forward one or more shot from your personal demo or current project. Going over classical animation principals to analyse, understand and perfect the animation. I want to tell you what I have learned from the very demanding mentors I was lucky enough to work with (Lino Di Salvo “Frozen” animation director, Olivier Staphylas “Wish dragon” animation director, Denis Couchon “Thelma the unicorn” animation director, Ludovic Bouancheau “The Last Wish” animation director, and more…). Along with them I got to sharpen my eye to be better at spotting how to make my animation work without struggling.
At Meet Your Legend, we believe in practice to understand and learn concepts, so bring your own animation and let’s push it as far as we can. Did you ever come so close to your goal, but didn’t know how to reach the final streak? This is the challenging world of animation. How to make the extra miles that makes your movement step up? If you want to learn from experienced director of animation, this bootcamp is for you!

- See animation from a new perspective
- Organise your creative process more efficiently
- Play with animation principals to serve your intention
