Integrated Foundation - Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Animation

3-Year Bachelor's Degree

Program Summary

Program Description

Animation is at the heart of the movie industry, from the latest blockbuster to the small budget indie. At Middlesex, students will study across a broad range of animation practice, including traditional and digital 2D, motion graphics and stop motion, as well as 3D computer animation and even working directly onto 16mm film.

While studying animation students will combine both theory and practice to develop their skills and knowledge. In class discussions and lectures, students will learn about the history of animation, building their understanding of the changing practices of animation and being introduced to new concepts around animation and games.

When it comes to practical work, students will develop and consolidate their own approach to animation in the state-of-the-art animation studios. They will use building their own animated films as part of a portfolio development module. Using industry standard software students will build and refine their technical skills with a focus on designing and directing their own animated films. They'll also learn storytelling, scriptwriting and characterisation alongside film and sound editing techniques to convey compelling narratives.
