Summary

The British Academy for Training and Development presents this course in (Creation of Documentaries) for amateur and professional documentary filmmakers, in terms of photography, direction, and presentation, in order to acquire a wide range of skills in creation of documentary films.

Movie is a series of still images shown on the screen in specific sequence, therefore creating effective animations with great influence on human eyes and minds, movies are produced through a process known as Camera Shooting along with other animation techniques, while Animation is a simulation of visual perspectives in order to convey ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings and above all; beauty.

Animation is an art that transforms a silent image into a movement full of life. It releases the human aspects of the product and presents them in a more meaningful and entertaining way to the target audience. We teach the trainers how to transform the required message into a story, and then present this story in a fun and easy video format. We introduce the production of animated videos for various types of audience. When it comes to producing animation videos, you may be surprised at the amount of work required and the number of artists who are performing the video or Advertise until you see it on the screen. The forms of animation vary from 2D drawings that are manually executed to 3D computer graphics or even clay films and many more methods of animations.
