This course is of introductory nature and aims to provide students with an insight into the methods and techniques used both within animation and game design. The course examines core concepts and principles of design, focusing on subjects such as harmony, contrast, balance, unity, dilemma, dominance, repetition, rhythm, analogy, and metaphor. Other design-related subjects that will be covered in the course include the composition of shapes, forms, and spaces with an emphasis on their visual expression such as light, color, texture, shade, gestalt principles of perception, figure-ground relations, orientation and formal transformations. By the end of the course, the students will gain a basic understanding of the history, types, principles, and processes involved both in animation and game design.
