In this course, participants will explore the techniques and various approaches used in designing and producing sound for animated films.

Participants, divided into groups of three people, will have film projects for which they are responsible for creating the audio. Whether they are dialogues, monologues, or sound effects produced with Foley technique.

This process will be supervised by tutors in collaboration with guests of the festival, experienced in animated filmmaking.

The course will explore audio as a key component of a film project, with the main goal being for participants to gain the necessary skills to determine where and what types of sounds are needed within their projects, as well as the impact they have on the film as a whole.

Each part of the process will be critiqued by peers and trainers, and the classroom environment will be one of collaboration and exploration.
