The Use Of Physical Acting Tools To Develop Acting References Among Animation Students

The study looked at the experience of students in using physical acting tools (PAT) to develop their acting references. Acting references are a common and useful part of the character animation workflow. Typical animation courses in higher education tend to emphasise mainly on theoretical studies, w...

Acting references are a common and useful part of the character animation workflow. Typical animation courses in higher education tend to emphasise mainly on theoretical studies, whilst keeping acting knowledge or practical use of acting skills as a secondary source for references.
