COVID-19 We have introduced a range of measures to protect every member of the learning community at Gearies. These include strict limits on class sizes to ensure social distancing can be maintained within classrooms. There will also be additional procedures and limitations around the use of entrances and exits, corridors and other public areas.

How will the course benefit me?
This course will allow you to explore art in motion. You will expand your scope of creativity by producing movement to your own creations through a 2-dimensional software.

What will I learn?
You will learn how to introduce motion to your drawings by using Adobe Animate software which has got a huge range of tools that will produce movement in a very easy and fun way. You will learn how to draw a character, for example, and make it walk, run, blink, etc..

Career Opportunities
The course programme is structured in a way that your learning will be progressively increasing so you can step into a high level (such as After Effects, for example).
