ONLINE 2DFX ANIMATION WORKSHOP with Salvador Ávila.
Summary
Whether you're a student, a junior FX artist, or simply curious about diving into the world of 2D effects animation, this workshop will give you hands-on experience with FX techniques that elevate action scenes. We'll break things down into sessions, each with a demo, a bit of theory, feedback rounds, and an assignment you can use in your reel.
DAY 1 — Wind FX
We’ll kick things off with an introduction to the course, plus a quick chat about 2DFX in general, then we’ll jump into the first assignment: Animating wind tu support character movement. After that we’ll go over individual feedback rounds.
DAY 2 — Flashframes
I’ll explain how and when to use them, followed by a short demo.
Then you’ll get to add your own flashframes to an action shot, and after that, we will go over individual feedback rounds.
DAY 3 — Dust FX
We’ll finish strong with dust FX—one of the most common 2DFX tasks seen on any television, feature or videogame production. We’ll explore how to animate dust with different levels of detail and complexity.
Recommended Materials
Any software that lets you draw and animate is totally fine. Just a heads-up: I can only offer tech help for Toon Boom Harmony, so keep that in mind if you're using something else.
*Frequent questions:
What happens if I can´t see the classes live one day?
No problem. All classes are live but will also be recorded and posted on our platform. So you can see them whenever you want throughout the duration of the course. This means that if you cannot attend your class live at the stipulated time, you will be able to see them on the platform until the end of the course. These video-classes posted on the platform can be viewed unlimitedly during the duration of the course, but they cannot be copied or downloaded. Recorded class can also be viewed for 6 mounths once the course is over.
When can I see the classes I did not attend live?
24-hour access to the virtual platform where you can consult all the information or documentation of the course, access all the classes that have already been taught or the proposed exercises. When, where and at the rate you want.
