• ART 251: Character Rigging & Animation

  3.00 Credits

  Lehigh Carbon Community College

  
  In this course, students will develop character animations using the Autodesk Maya professional 3D animation software package. Emphasis is placed on developing effective skeletal structures, character rigging, and keyframe-driven animation, utilizing Inverse and Forward Kinematics. Students will learn how to create natural, believable motions through understanding and mimicking weight distribution and other natural forces, which act upon body motion. Bipedal, Quadrupedal, and other forms of animal locomotion will be explored. Though ot is not necessary, taking ART 181-Advanced 3D Modeling and Texturing may be beneficial for students taking this course.

• ART 258: Multimedia Practicum

  3.00 Credits

  Lehigh Carbon Community College

  
  This course serves as an optional program capstone for the Computer-Generated Digital Art and Animation degree. Students must submit a proposal for a project that they intend to complete for the duration of the course in order to be approved by the Practicum instrucor. Students may also choose to seek an internship to fulfill the practicum. Specific requirements of the project or the internship will be outlined, if a student is accepted into the course. The course is intended to allow students to produce completed, polished work for inclusion in a portfolio or demo reel, to gain real-world expericence via an internship within the digital arts field, or to otherwise prepare for future employment. Regardless of whether the practicum is a project or internship, students will need to meet strict deadlines and produce appropriate work for those deadlines, in order to simulate real-world work experience. Since different projects and internship opportunites have different skill requirements, the instructor of the Practicum will determine students' eligibility on a case-by-case basis.

• ART 265: Capstone in Fine Arts

  3.00 Credits

  Lehigh Carbon Community College

  
  This capstone course offers an intensive studio experience for personal development and artistic growth, culminating in a final semester-end exhibition. The focus on both group critiques and detailed self-analysis of personal artwork will strengthen and build valuable character that is necessary for continued success. This class will also provide an in-depth building of students transfer and/or personal portfolio in preparation for the next stage chosen. Collectively these elements will cultivate an aesthetic awareness of creative issues to further the knowledge and understanding of the artistic career path. Students gain knowledge of professional practices by visiting galleries, museums, and artists' studios; speaking with artists, art dealers, art critics, and museum staff; and researching and writing about these experiences.
