It really helped me to create my own animations like E-card animation, truck animation, and many others.
It is really helpful to learn the animations through these video tutorials. Hope I can access these tutorials after the workshop also because in a day it is not possible to grasp all the things.
I am trying
I correlate the assignments to make some small animations like collision of balls to demonstrate the law of conservation of momentum.
Yes
Very much
They are useful
its useful to do the practice assignment to learn more
This will help to explore more in depth to get the concept.
More explanation needed
Solving Assignment question helped me to know the software better and gave a easy going look. The instructions were pretty clear and made the practice be smooth.
Aligned with the tutorial. Easy to create for Beginner's aspect.
Actually, more time is required in case of very beginners to synfig
Yes. By practicing we more understanding the topic
Assignments check the level of understanding the concepts and tools
while doing practice assignment , we are getting some doubt and clarified
Its helped a lot and I tried to complete tutorials followed by practice. Although I can not complete but tried my best to learn as much as possible

Q15. What aspect(s) about the workshop did you like the most?
The fact that we were asked to do the assignments ourselves after providing a good tutorial was a really good move
I liked the time management of workshop. Also the division of classroom was very good.
Self study
Tutorial content and immediate assignments helps to boost of confidence.
Proper execution and planning
The orientation
1. Assistance given by the TA's.
self learning
Team of coordinator help me to get out difficulty face during workshop
Assignments
The Assignments really help me have a good hold on the things I learned.
Assignments.
Splitting of class rooms
Simple understanding method
way of handling the sessions and assignments
Doubt clarification
Nearly all the way for me as a new candidate for Synfig
1. Hands-on guided tutorials helped reduce the learning curve
I Learn something new
Way of online tutorials & hands on training by breaking into small class for 1:1 focus.
Self learning approach.
The video tutorials are excellent. Script prepared was very explementary.
presentation of the resource person , and spoken tutorials
Interaction
everything in the course is fine
Q16. What aspect(s) about the workshop did you dislike the most?
Nothing much that I disliked.
As such there was nothing to dislike but kind of monotonous and loosing of interest specially in 2nd session was observed.
Self study
The online flatform used for sessions should be more as (I personally) few users may not have access for same. So, options will help to avoid last minute troubles.
NA
nothing
1. Costly. By using Self Explanatory video, this workshop has been conducted. So, The cost is too much.
2. No one to many or Many to one Interaction session. Since 950 has been charged, I expected that they will teach us and they will clarify our doubts then and there. Watching video and doing it reduced the passion to learn.
3. Wastage of time - we have to watch and then we have to learn our self. It increases the learning time and decreases the learning rate. Also, the questions has been answered by forum. Time has been wasted due to this.( Time to type, waiting time to get answer).
two of my friends and one of my colleagues felt the same for this charge.
Nil
Not applicable
Not telling the concept well
Nothing in particular overall a good experience.
Less discussion. Rather watching the offline video, new video could be shown and simultaneously interaction with the participants and hands on session also.
Previously I have attended Jmol workshop also, but for this synfig workshop I felt time is not sufficient even to make the animations which are given in the tutorials (may be I am beginner, that can be one of the reason)
Nothing
Time should be there for practice
nil
Time was less for newcomer
The advanced workshop should be conducted within 2 months of the basic workshop. Helps to keep the continuity in learning.
overall is good
Nothing... Oveall all excellent
Nothing
more explanation of the software functionalities will be helpful and will reduce the time in understanding
Demo should give
course was useful.

General
Q24. We have provided you Synfig Studio Spoken Tutorials and many other learning materials in this workshop. What else is required for you to conduct a similar workshop in your institution by yourself?Q25. Suggestions for improvement or any other suggestions.
Small changes could be done in pattern of the workshop for after lunch session.
Need more video tutorials covering advance animations with example.
NA
-
Various Tools for animation must be explained in advance
The spoken tutorials are missing one vital dimension, the dimension is why we are using this button, parameter, etc. See if you say why you are writing or selecting this, what is the significance of this feature. Then this will helps to a person to materialize the concept he/she was. Otherwise it seems to be specific to the problem only., without knowing the reason for using this.
Everything is good.
Please organize badic workshop for students in free of cost.
There should be follow up for the animations we have done so that it would reinforce our learning
-
As a very new candidate for the Synfig workshop. Some issue related to Internet additional time or practice is required
Please conduct advanced workshop 6-8 weeks after basic synfig workshop.
Please compare synfig studio features with commercial tool alternatives during the workshop.
