Hello and welcome to this Citizen Course on Creating an Animated Character Splash Screen!

Hello everyone and welcome to this Citizen Course on creating an animated character splash screen in Photoshop and After Effects. In this course Tim Von Rueden and Daniel Goslin take you through the steps on creating a animated splash screen from the initial sketches to adding in dust particles in the final render.

What you?ll learn in this course

During the first half of this course, I will take you through creating a Photoshop file ready for animating in After Effects. This will include explaining both the character and environment being used for this course and how to treat the different layers you will be created to work properly. When creating this scene, always be thinking about what you want animated and how you should be separating the layers from each other.

With this course you will have the basics to go out and complete your very own animated character splash screen!
