I’m now back in UK after studying at the amazing Gobelins Character Animation Summer School…what an amazing course! I would recommend this course to anyone wishing to develop their character animation skills!
I was very privileged to learn from the likes of –

Shelley Page (Head of International Outreach for DreamWorks Animation)
Fred Nargorny (professor of animation at Gobelins)
Alexandre Heboyan (ex-Gobelins student, co-director on Migration Bigoudenn, Dreamworks animator & now co-director on the French feature film, Mune, le gardien de la lune, for the studio Method Films.)
Robert Bennett (the amazing Corporeal Acting teacher)
Kyle Balda (who has worked for the likes of ILM & Pixar – as directing animator on Toy Story 2)
Daniel Cacouault (an incredible artist & production designer for films)

So the quality of the teaching was second to none!

I will be putting together a series of blog posts that cover some of the animation principles that I learnt whilst studying at Gobelins. So keep an eye on this blog to find out more.

Hello there! Thank you for posting something of that experience of yours… Do you know anything about gobelins summer course in 2010? I’ve been looking for it, in the school’s website, nothing there… Are there any possibilities to another summer course this year?

Hi – as far as I know they are doing another summer school. I haven’t heard otherwise. They normally would have put up information about this years one by now. It’s probably best to keep an eye on their website.
