What will you learn?

Interface
We?ll start by going over the Blender interface and understanding how to manipulate objects in our scene, then we?ll cover all major animation tools like the dope sheet, the graph editor, and learn how to create and use keyframes.

Setting Up a Scene
We’ll set up a scene from scratch and do all the preparation for animating it, like importing a rig, creating a camera and getting the right settings set up for animation.

Animating a Shot
We?ll then jump in and actually animate an entire shot from start to finish. We?ll sketch the poses with the Blender grease pencil tool, block our shot, spline it, polish it, and see how all the tools we?ve learned are being used in production.

Render
When the shot is done, we?ll go over some render settings, just enough so you can export a great looking shot with minimal effort.

Super detailed, fast paced.
We hate long, dragged-out tutorials. We believe in bite-sized lessons with a clear structure that get straight to the point without skipping any important information. We?ll take you step-by-step through the program?s learning curve.

Animation training can get expensive.
Animation courses can be pricey, often in the thousands of dollars. These programs cover entire skill sets, including many topics you’ll probably never use. Our courses are just the right size and very cost-effective, teaching exactly what you need to know to start animating right away.

We partnered with expert animator Dillon Gu to create an amazing masterclass, exclusive to Bloop Animation. Together we built this course from the ground up to be tailored to both fans as well as professional animators and filmmakers.
