Animation students are observed to have low creative thinking skills
because some are enrolled in courses that are not aligned with their preferences
or desired courses. This study used Mixed-Method Research embedded with
Design-Based Research Design to develop a Short Tutorial Video for 3D Character
Modeling to support Creative Thinking Skills among Animation students at the
Technological University of the Philippines – Manila campus. Data gathered were
from 1st to 3rd year Animation students and analyzed from a Qualitative and
Quantitative perspective. The research was conducted in four phases: (1) Problem
Identification: the researchers found that the presence of multimedia design
principles in instructional materials with aligned and updated content helps the
Animation students to become more engaged and knowledgeable in learning 3D
Character Modeling using Blender; (2) Design and Development, presenting them
with learning materials that are short, concise and follows step by step process
while allowing them to think creatively using interactive questions. (3) Iterative
Testing and Refinement; some students like to watch videos in vertical formats like
reels and prefer to see the actual animator doing the Character is a user’s
perspective; (4) Derivation of design Principles, the researchers recommend to the
future researchers to create a different format for the audience and see if the
engagement and creativity of the animation students really boost with this kind of
format.
