Learn to use Toon Boom Animate and Toon Boom Harmony to create traditional animated scenes, complex digital character rigs, and even some cool special effects. Author and animator Dermot O' Connor walks through the Toon Boom Animate interface, introduces the program's drawing tools and color controls, and teaches techniques for drawing keys, breakdowns, and in-betweens in a traditional animation style, as well as creating keyframe-based digital animations. Then he shows how to set up, rig, and animate a character, and add finishing touches to your animations, such as moving cameras, sound, and effects.

Note: Dermot uses Toon Boom Animate to demonstrate these techniques, but Toon Boom Harmony and Toon Boom Animate Pro users will also benefit from the training.
