This course is designed for students who already have experience in animation. It offers them the opportunity to develop a project – personal or collective – in computer animation. It can be a short animated film, an aesthetic and/or technical research project, or any other experiment. Topics are open and chosen freely by the participants.
Teaching takes the form of project follow-up. The course proposes a three-part production schedule: preparation (pre-production), execution (production), and finalization (post-production). This schedule may or may not be followed, depending on the nature of the project.
The first session is dedicated to reflecting on the project. By the end of the class, students are asked to submit a short PDF document outlining their project. Following the preparation phase, each student presents their project briefly for discussion with their peers. An evaluation screening is held at the end of the final session.
