Course Overview

About this Course:

I'm glad you decided to learn how to sketch for animation. To start off with this course I would like to answer one super important question. How good do you need to be in sketching and drawing to be able to do decent animation?

The answer is:

  • You have to be decent at drawing.
  • Notice that I didn't say you have to be the best or you have to be very very good no. You just have to be decent.
  • How can you be decent?
  • With a bit of practice.

As a disclaimer I'm not a great artist I'm not very good at drawing myself I'm just decent and that's good for animation.
