What you'll learn
This course, Design & Stop Motion with SNASK, is a series by the irreverent creative agency, SNASK. The series has been transformed into a TV-show where they mix wisdom and humor, all dressed in colorful themes. You'll start with Ms. Foil showing how SNASK worked to make an investment banker's brand appear fresh, fun, and appealing while staying true to the mother brand of Nordea Markets. Ms. Foil will also share with you the secrets of creating a package design that stands out among competitors, how to prepare for and work with a photographer, as well as her tips and tricks on creating the perfect typeface for your client. Then, the Stop Motion Dragon will show you the equipment you'll need to create a stop motion and how to set it up, and it will guide you through the entire creation process in Dragonframe. By the end of your stop motion journey, you'll be able to see the best practices put into action with Robot Steve. Make sure you have your learning glasses on--it's a lot to take in!
