Join us for a 5-week animatronic intensive to build a half-face animatronic with fully independent movement of eyes, eyebrows and nostrils. Highly motivated students may advance to a full-face including jaw and lip movement. This course is limited to 6 participants.
Students will:
- Create a 3-D character design in Blender
- Work with parametric CAD to design and then fabricate 3-D printed molds
- Execute silicone fabrication techniques for animatronic skins
- Implement servos and control systems for facial movement
- Design and build mechanical linkages and mechanisms
Tuition $3,200 + Materials and Animatronics Kit Fee $1,800 = course total $5,000
Optional: purchase of Personal 3-D printer = additional $1,200
