FREEHAND DRAWING This is an introductory course in the freehand or non-mechanical method will be presented in pencil, ink, and markers. It will utilize objects of interior environment as a means of understanding various drawing principles and familiarize the student with basic rendering techniques.

FIGURE DRAWING This course is directed towards giving the student a structured approach to drawing the human figure, which will serve as a foundation for his or her personal interpretive approach. Students will practice illustration of the human body using gesture, contour, and modeling. There is an artificial way to draw that is based on learning techniques and mannerisms; there is also a natural way to draw based on close observation of the object being drawn. This subject will be focusing on both the learned and natural approach.

LIFE DRAWING This course will strengthen students' skills in basic observational drawing ("drawing from life"). This course is designed particularly with the animation student in mind, emphasizing acting and movement, but the time-tested drawing techniques taught in class are essential for beginning animators.

DIG ITAL ILLUSTRATION TECHNIQUES This course is design for students with basic drawing skills who want to develop their drawing skills more fully. Students will develop greater flexibility, better technical ability, and a higher degree of expression by using digital illustration software. Various drawing styles from cartoon, manga, to realistic renderings will be explored.

TRADITIONAL ANIMATION PRINCIPLES This course is designed to provide students with an introduction to the principles of traditional animation and elementary character design. Dimensional forms are used in the construction of solid, well drawn characters and how to do animation works.

LAYOUT AND STORYBOARDING In this course, the student will understand the importance of staging the character on the background in a required scene based on the storyboard and translate it into a format and size that can be utilized by the Animation and Camera Departments. Layouting in animation is quite similar to sketching and penciling in comics and comic strip in newspaper. Eventually, the student has the possibility to perform the task after taking up this course and an opportunity to become storyboard and concept artist.

2D DIG ITAL METHODOLOGY This is course on the amalgamation of classical and digital practices in 2D animation. This course stresses the importance of understanding the fundamental principles of traditional 2D animation in its application to the digital medium. These principles will be taught using Toon Boom and Flash.

3D DIG ITAL METHODOLOGY This is course is similar to 2D Digital Methodology except focus is now shifted to 3D. The principles will be taught using Maya and Photoshop.
