You learn not just how to use the software, but how to use it in combination with other software, and how to make it all come together for your print, web or video projects. Our training sessions are a careful combination of talking, listening, seeing and doing. It's the opposite of the all-too-typical "this button does this, this button does that" lecture type of training.

- Interesting facts -
The idea of copying human motion for animated characters is, of course, not new. To get convincing motion for the human characters in Snow White, Disney studios traced animation over film footage of live actors playing out the scenes. This method, called rotoscoping, has been successfully used for human characters ever since. In the late 1970's, when it began to be feasible to animate characters by computer, animators adapted traditional techniques, including rotoscoping. At the New York Institute of Technology Computer Graphics Lab, Rebecca Allen used a half-silvered mirror to superimpose videotapes of real dancers onto the computer screen to pose a computer generated dancer for Twyla Tharp's "The Catherine Wheel." The computer used these poses as keys for generating a smooth animation. Rotoscoping is by no means an automatic process, and the complexity of human motion required for "The Catherine Wheel," necessitated the setting of keys every few frames. As such, rotoscoping can be thought of as a primitive form or precursor to motion capture, where the motion is "captured" painstakingly by hand.
