StoryFrameSchool · The online art school
Your story. Your pace. Your frame.
An online school to learn the art of the image and animation — tailored to you, taught by a professional from the animation industry, at the rhythm that fits your life.
Why StoryFrameSchool
Art schools weren’t built around you.
This one is.
No fixed timetable. No crowded classroom. No one-size-fits-all program. At StoryFrameSchool, you choose what you learn, when you learn it and how deep you go — and a professional animator guides you frame by frame, from your first sketch to a portfolio you’re proud of.
What makes us different

Tailored to you
Your level, your goals, your project. Every coaching session is built around what you want to achieve — whether it’s a demo reel, an art school entry or your own short film.

Behind the school
Meet Dave.
StoryFrameSchool was founded by Dave, a professional animator working in the animation industry.
After years on real productions, he built the school he wished he’d had: personal, flexible and focused on what actually matters in studio — strong drawings, clear storytelling and characters that feel alive.
Whether you’re a beginner, a self-taught artist or preparing for an art school or a studio job, he’ll meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go.
“Talent is a start. What makes the difference is someone who shows you, frame by frame, how to get better.”
