Dogs come in all unique shapes and sizes—it’s no wonder that these loveable creatures have been given the title of “Man’s Best Friend.” Grab your leashes and hang on tight as we take a brisk walk through the illustration of dogs in animation over the centuries. In this six-week virtual class, we will look at important character design principles and how to translate these vital principles into creating a dynamic canine companion in honor of Pluto’s 95th anniversary!
