Course detail
Advanced Motion Design
FaVU-1MODPAcad. year: 2023/2024
The course is divided into six blocks of three hours. In each block, advanced methods and techniques for working in After Effects, Premiere, and Cinema 4D software are discussed in detail. An individual approach to solving specific problems in motion design and digital video is preferred.
Language of instruction
Number of ECTS credits
Mode of study
Guarantor
Entry knowledge
Knowledge of working with vector and raster graphics in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Credit awarded based on attendance or discussion of a project in motion design and image post-production.
Classes take place in the classroom of the FFA BUT in the hours determined by the schedule. Attendance is optional; individual consultations with the teacher aimed at the implementation of the project may be an alternative.
Aims
The aim of the course is to help students master advanced methods of working with motion graphics and video images.
Students will master advanced techniques used in motion design
