Course Description
Toonboom Harmony is a great and powerful software! Considered by many to be the standard in 2D animation and is widely used in many animation studios around the world. You can not only do traditional paperless animation but also cut-out animation and 2D Rigging!
Unfortunately, I had to learn how to use the software the hard way when I was on my first job in the industry and as you can guess, it was a nightmare. Lucky for you guys, you don't have to go through the same thing as I did and that's why I made this class for you.
In this class, I'll cover all the essential tools you will need in order to use the Toonboom Harmony software for 2D animation as a beginner. Opening the software for the first time can be daunting but don't worry. I will break everything down in detail and at the end of the class, you'll have enough knowledge to start using the software comfortably.
