PBS Arts: Off Book – The Art of Animation and Motion Graphics
“The Art of Animation and Motion Graphics” by PBS Arts: Off Book takes a look at the imaginative history of animation and motion graphics in our lives and how, in many different forms and techniques, artists can tell an inspiring story.
Animation has been captivating audiences for more than a hundred years. From classic forms like hand drawn and stop-motion, to cutting-edge techniques like motion graphics and CGI, animation has a long history of creating style and poetry unachievable through live action filmmaking. It is a tool for educating, a place for experimentation and play, and a way of telling personal stories that reach the viewer with powerful visual metaphors.
