Former student, Kasun Jayamanne took our Toon Boom Animation 2 course and did some amazing work on his final project. It shows that a real passion for animation and persistence can pay off! After finishing the course and adding his final project to his showreel, he gained employment as an animator on Rick & Morty, and now works for Cartoon Saloon on their next top secret project.
Our courses run from 3-5 weeks from the start date, although there is an extra week to submit work at the end of each course.
You'll be given a default 365 days of access to any video library online, but it's free to extend as we roll out lifetime access. Just ask!
All of our courses have been designed to be as flexible as possible, so everyone can take part, no matter where in the world you live.
The main curriculum can be studied whenever you wish, as it's pre-recorded. And you can get feedback on your project work at any point during the course, too.
If it's a live session, the recording can be watched when its been uploaded, so you don't miss out!
Many of our courses include software, and some offer a heavily discounted special purchase if you choose to buy afterwards, making the course worth the price alone! Please check individual course pages for details
We suggest a minimum of 3-4 hours a week, although the longer you have, the more you can practice.
The videos are broken down into short lessons (on average 10 minutes). Your progress is also tracked, so you can easily pick up where you left off.
Depending on the course, you'll have various projects and homework that you may want feedback on.
You'll be given specific instructions on how to send these over to your tutor, and in return you'll receive personalised feedback. This can either be via a recorded video or written notes and drawn-over screengrabs.
Take a break, you did it! Completing a course is something to be proud of, not to mention the potential demo reel content you'll have to show for it at the end.
To mark the completion, you'll receive a personalised certificate. Just ask and we'll create one especially for you!
You'll also maintain access to any inclusive community that came with the course, so you can continue to share your progress with those animation connections!
Feedback from our students
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I went from knowing practically nothing to being able to fully rig and animate. There's no way I would have been able to get my job on Disney's Tangled Series without this course.
Adam's tutorials were easy to follow and doable around my work hours with help when I needed it. I am so grateful for a course that actually made everything understandable.
These are the most comprehensive courses I've found. Beyond being a great animator with a lot of experience Adam is an amazing teacher - a rare combination!
