The Week in 777: Week 2, January 28th-February

by Mike Gleicher on January 27, 2013

This week, we’ll continue our non-technical start to the semester, but slowly transition into things that more resemble

  • Monday, January 28th – We’ll discuss animation principles. You should have read about them before class. Yes, we’ll watch Mickey Mouse in class, but this works a lot better if you’ve done the reading.
  • Wednesday, January 30th – We’ll talk about some historical papers, mainly describing systems.  Make sure you have read the papers (and made your posting) before class. Probably, what we’ll really talk more about is more modern systems.
  • Friday, February 1st – We’ll have kindof a survey of the whole field. Please make sure you have done the reading. Also, the “watching” assignment is due.

Next week, we’ll take a survey of what’s going on in animation research, and start to get into some actually technical content. You should also be started on Assignments 3 and 4.
