Pencil It It

CGT Seniors Produce Pencil It In!

This is the closing shot of the animation that accompanies the Pencil It In! An Introduction to the Animation Pipeline textbook that the CGT 411/450 group, Pivotal Foundations created for their project. The textbook is a look at all aspects of the animation pipeline with simple tutorials for each step that allow the students to experience each aspect of the work flow in the animation process. The students in the group were Nicole Banet, Steve Bowden, Kevin Ho, and Zach Winchell. The text will be used to supplement the CGT 116 and/or the CGT 241 curriculum at New Albany.
