Title: Coloso – Recreating Hand-Drawn Effects in After Effects
Info:
Digital Tools, Hand-Drawn Feel: Master Anime-Style Effects in AE
In animation, some of the most striking visual moments come from special effects that feel alive and handcrafted. This course teaches you how to recreate those effects in After Effects while retaining the warmth, dynamics, and expressiveness of hand-drawn animations.
Curriculum:
Section 01 OT
01. Course Introduction
Introduce the overall structure of the course and the final results
Display the settings of the AE workspace, as well as the necessary plugins and scripts
Section 02 Preparations Before Production
02. Breaking the Digital Aesthetic: The Core Aesthetic Theory of Anime Special Effects
Analyze the characteristics of hand-drawn animation special effects: brushstrokes, textures, irregular movements, color gradations, and compare them with CG special effects to establish aesthetic standards
03. Methodology for Animation Special Effects Production (Part 1)
Conduct a detailed analysis of a film clip by disassembling a special effects shot to examine its shape, movement, texture, and color
04. Methodology for Animation Special Effects Production (Part 2)
Convert the disassembled elements into actionable steps for implementation in AE
