Watch Promo Enroll in Course
Cartooning, in Class is first of a series of exciting new courses we created just for you! Topics include introduction to acting, singing, writing, drawing, and every tool you need to teach Animation!
Each of the 12 workshop consists of applying the 12 principle(s) of Animation taken from Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson's book The Illusion of Life, Disney Animation. The Disney tradition of transmitting their magical touch to colleagues within their company,
have not only left us with this wonderful book produced for the public,
but have left us with seasoned Disney Artists such as David Pacheco,
current Creative Director of The Disney Company and contributor to our
own project

Don't delay, join us! See how we transform you into new evangelist of these time treasured skills!
"Anton Gunaratnam provided his Cartooning & Video Game workshop service at my Starbucks store on December 24th, 2017 for the duration of 2 hours with the aim to fund-raise for the Mary’s Meal Charity.Topics taught by Anton included applying “Disney’s Squash & Stretch Principle of Animation” to the children’s cartoon character designs using Play Doh & balloons. In addition to the Arts activities, the second hour of the workshop offered children the exciting challenge of engineering their own Animation Machine using K’NEX.
Anton’s Cartooning & Video Game workshop provides a special blend of Arts & Sciences, allowing children to excel within their own interests and most importantly having fun doing it! I would recommend Anton’s workshop services to any educational institution that seeks to provide a program that supplements classroom curriculum while cultivating young students’ educational interests & passions."
