Most Recent Review

The course helped me grow more comfortable with using Animate and learning about tweens and other tools I didn't know existed. I definitely felt a bit overwhelmed at times, especially because I created my own character and background and had to figure out how to do certain steps outside of the course. For example, my character needed to have knee joints, and I forgot to add them, and even after copying the workspace template, it still looked different than in the class. I wish the classes had been edited so that when Siobhan forgot to add something, it should have been fixed within the same class, rather than in a separate class. I also feel the class should be updated to match a more recent version of Animate since the 2026 interface has changed, and I had to do some digging to find out where certain elements of the Properties tab were. Aside from the walk cycle, Siobhan showed how to work with backgrounds and do jumps, which was wonderful because it allowed me to increase my knowledge beyond just making a character walk in Animate.

Instructor Bio

My background spans the disciplines of drawing, painting, filmmaking and animation. I studied Film in Dublin, and spent a semester on a scholarship at the Tisch School of the Arts, NYU in New York. I later studied drawing and animation. Since 2005, I have worked in studios in Vancouver and Dublin as a professional Background Designer and Environment Artist. I've also worked as a storyboard artist, concept artist, and I have directed a number of short animated films.

All in all, I've worked for over 15 years as an Artist, Illustrator and Animation Professional. I've provided artwork for studios whose clients include Disney UK, Sony Pictures Animation, HMH Publishing, to name a few.

I also have an ongoing painting and drawing practice, and I paint portraits on commission, and exhibit my work in galleries. My passion is to teach others the whole spectrum of art skills that I've learned and developed over the course of my career.
