How do professional animators use ratio and proportion to create the illusion that inanimate objects move? Explore how mathematical concepts are used to illustrate artistic techniques such as vanishing points, pattern iterations and scale drawings. Experiment with incremental movement as you create a flipbook that models cycles in nature while learning about periodic motion. Learn to draw like DaVinci as you create beautiful works of symmetric art using only a compass and ruler. Then use your newly refined skills and HUE animation software to create a stop-motion video to share with family and friends. All skill levels are welcome.
