Free life drawing at www.pixelovely.com

Animation is a blend of creative and technical skills, and a good animator needs both to survive. It is true that digital animators don't need to draw with the same degree of skill as they did in the days of hand-drawn animation, but good draughtsmanship still helps a great deal, not just for design work but for storyboards, thumbnails, visual development and all the other related areas that a good animator often gets called upon to do.

life drawing helps you to capture the line of action in a pose

We strongly recommend that our animators participate in life drawing classes. For those who can't find a local class, for whatever reason, Pixelovely offers a radical - and completely free - online solution.

It is astonishing how much online content has developed for learning the past few years - much of it free. Take advantage of it, and join the digital revolution.
