You MUST have completed Heroes & Monsters 2 to attend this class.

This class allows us to connect the work we have already done on character and environment and start to create dramatic scenes that will enable you to put your skills into practice. Pascal Langdale will lead you as we explore the most common types of motion capture work, learn how to extract critical information from directors and animators, and develop the skills that will allow you to be more self reliant in the volume, especially when working with new or inexperienced directors.

This is a practical class where we will be engaging in exercises and scene work. It will not make use of motion capture technology because this inevitably slows things down and serves as an unnecessary distraction. Though this class is optional and not part of our core curriculum, it serves as an excellent preparation for our Cinematics class. The majority of the material in this class will also be applicable to stage and screen work.

Time and Date: April 14th - 10:00am to 6:00pm

Location: Game on, B-405 Ogilvy Ave, Montreal, QC, H3N 1M3

NOTE: Access is through the car park at the back of the building.
