Character Animator Tips & Tricks (March 2018)

This month we start off with community projects including a film festival finalist, several animated educational videos for kids, and a 5 hour production course on Lynda. Then we do a deep dive into recording, editing, and compositing with Character Animator and After Effects, using the upcoming Evan Flamethrower cartoon as an example - watch this to become a recording pro!
