Animation Class 2016 The Animation Exhibit will feature a short film chronicling the process animation students took as they went from developing an animated character to creating a 2-D animated short. Students used the industry-standard program Harmony to animate simple things like a bouncing ball or an accelerating car, and
eventually moved on to more complex sequences such as making their cartoon character walk and talk. Animation teacher Garrett Omoto hopes that his students “realize that they can create their own cartoons on their own and maybe go into a career in which they can use their knowledge and experience.”
