- The course unit employs a face-to-face teaching model and a continuous assessment regime, utilizing both expository and active pedagogical approaches to acquaint students with a variety of tools and working methods. The presentation of the syllabus will be carried out through the use of audiovisual and PowerPoint presentations. Students develop projects and practical exercises during classes, under the continuous guidance of the instructor. For support with projects and exercises, additional information will be made available to students on the Moodle platform.

- This course aims to introduce a range of animation techniques - rotoscoping, stop motion, and 3D digital animation - which students will explore and apply in animation projects. Within this context, students are expected to develop the ability to conceive and produce animated projects through the use of these three techniques. The guidelines set out in the course syllabus seek to establish working methods consistent with the principles taught in previous course units, particularly Visual Culture, Camera and Video Operations, Editing and Post-Production, Design, and Photography. Accordingly, students will complete five exercises and one final project, based on a production process that follows these principles.
- - Technique and aesthetics of the animated image. - Presentation of experimental animation projects (visual and narrative). - Animation principles (12 Disney rules). - Concepts and practice of Stopmotion animation (2D). - Concepts and Practice of Rotoscopy - Digital rotoscopy techniques. - Animation techniques in 3D environments. - 3D animation, VFX, Motion Tracking. - 3D modeling and animation of a logo. - Applying a light environment. - Rendering techniques.
Esta UC segue um método de avaliação contínuo e presencial, e tem como objetivo dotar gradualmente
os alunos com os conhecimentos necessários à elaboração de projetos de Animação em 2D e 3D,
recorrendo a equipamentos e software como o Blender, Adobe Photoshop e Premiere. A explicação
oral, a demonstração das funções das ferramentas e as possibilidades que o software oferece são dados
a conhecer através de exemplos, aos quais se seguem 5 exercícios e 1 projeto final.
Para cada trabalho - quatro exercícios iniciados durante as aulas e o projeto final - devem ser entregues ao docente o ficheiro original e editável do programa e o ficheiro correspondente ao render final.
Critérios de Avaliação:
- 12%. - Exercício 1 | Stop Motion.
- 12%. - Exercício 2 | Stop Motion.
- 18%. - Exercício 3 | Rotoscopia.
- 14%. - Exercício 4 | Modelação 3D. Animação em Blender, VFX (Motion Traking).
- 14%. - Exercício 5 | Modelação 3D. Animação de um logotipo em modelação 3D.
- 20%. - Projeto Final | Animação em stop motion, rotoscopia ou modelação 3D.
- 10%. - Assiduidade e trabalho autónomo.
É considerado na avaliação: Aplicabilidade das competências técnicas apreendidas, Qualidade e criatividade nos exercícios e projetos.
Em caso de dúvida (por confirmação de plágio, por uso inapropriado da IA, ou por entrega dos mesmos trabalhos em UCs diferentes) o professor tem o direito de pedir um esclarecimento aos estudantes, seja através da realização de prova extra para aferição de conhecimentos sobre o trabalho realizado, de uma conversa, ou por qualquer outro meio que entenda ser adequado no âmbito da UC.
In case of doubt (by confirmation of plagiarism, by inappropriate use of AI, or by delivery of the same works in different UCs) the professor has the right to ask the students for clarification, either by carrying out an extra test to assess knowledge about the work done, from a conversation, or by any other means deemed appropriate within the scope of the UC.
- Semestral
- The purpose of UC Animation 2D and 3D is to transmit the knowledge necessary for the development of projects in the audiovisual and multimedia area, using new technologies and professional software on the market such as Blender, Adobe Photoshop and Premiere. Mastering these tools, technologies and techniques allows students to expand their possibilities for solutions and resources in the field of animation.
