Course Description

This course is all about the process of creating an 2D animated short film using Blender. We will be aiming for a simplistic cartoon such as Pepper Pig and Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom. We want to be able to create as much animation in a short period of time

Why 2D?

– Less bones to animate
– Quicker to setup
– Produce results faster
– Render times greatly decrease
– Mouth animations can be achieved faster.

Instructor Details

Marko Matosevic

I have currently been using Blender for three years with a focus on hard surface modelling and animation. Blender has appealed to me as my primary tool as there is such a strong community that follows it. There are always people to help, as well as people available to help.


I have a background in acting and creating short films for over a decade. This is what made me change to a 3D artist. I wanted to continue to work with film, but at my own pace. Working with film makers meant that I would need to revolve around their schedule, where as a 3D artist, I am able to go at my own pace and have more control over what I produce.


I am currently Married with two children under the age of 5, and Family is the most important thing to myself. This was another reason why become a 3D animator appealed to me as it would not interfere with family life.


Through out my life I have already achieve many of my goals that I have. At the moment my life goal is to work on a feature film one day and be able to tell people "I made that" and to be proud of what I have accomplished.

there is a lag between audio and video and makes it difficult to follow up on the instructions and develop understanding

The course did not meet the set expectation. Character creation and rigging not explained. The course explains animating already rigged characters. The link to download characters directly takes you to Instructor's YouTube channel where you can BUY different assets but none related to the course. I am unable to proceed with the course. Lot of gaps.

Would be nice if you added a list of things we may need before we take the class , not being able to follow step by step killed it for me..

Excellent course. Very informative. Great stuff. Lots of info to take in. Could be too complex for beginner.

I have taken several course in Blender up to this point. I'm here to learn the basics of animation. So far I'm not that impressed with how the creator is building their objects. For example, working with several active identical windows at the same time and trying to keep them in sync isn't efficient at all. It would be better to work with a series of arrays or linked duplicates so you're always together. If this is an issue later for animation, you could always separate them. In addition, the author starts with a model of a 3D figure (just for scaling) that we have not made yet. The course should have started with building a basic 2D character without rigging that would be used as a model for the rest of the course. I'm hoping the section on rigging will show me how to properly animate a more complicated scene (or seriies of smaller scenes) and how to manage keyframes, etc. If that proves informative, the course will have been worth it.

Not as well prepared as i would like him to be ... a lot of mistakes or not being able to find the menu item he wants right off ... i would like this to have been more practiced and prepared instead of so "off the cuff"

By Vipin Kumar on 3/15/2018

Nice...great course, but instructor should slow down his speed, and discuss which commands he using & rationale behind that. Sometimes its hard to follow what is going on the screen.

By Gerard Fokker on 2/23/2018

This was a very helpfull course for me, i know understand how to create a short 2D animation in Blender.

By Robert Ellis on 2/6/2018

This is a great course - But I would have preferred it if He had explained how to make bones within the characters. Instead He just offers Downloads after the fact of the characters pre-made. Reverse engineering is not so hard I guess... - Le
