COURSE OVERVIEW
Take your animations to the next level by unlocking your creative potential.
Advancements in technology and the boom of the VFX industry have made computer animation one of the fastest growing industries, with an estimated value of £1.6bn in the UK only (source Creative UK).
This postgraduate qualification is designed for students who want to take their computer animation skills to the highest level.
During the first 18 weeks, common with our popular Advanced Animation course, you’ll learn your craft and master advanced practices, such as creature interaction, dialogue and lipsync. We'll then take you to the next level and put your skills to test with two major industry-standard projects, including a collaborative group project just like in a studio. You’ll create high-quality animations to use in your showreel.
At the end of the degree, you’ll have earned a postgraduate qualification, have a showreel of cool animation work and a deep understanding of the animation and visual effects industries.
Our industry connections, experienced tutors, who boast credits including The Lion King, Godzilla and Doctor Strange, Talent Development Team and Aftercare programme will help you build your network to kick-start your creative career.
Career opportunities
You’ll graduate with a postgraduate qualification, strong creative, technical and soft skills, including collaboration and communication, and a killer portfolio put together with advice from tutors and industry professionals. Ready to apply to start your career in the industry!
Animators often start out in junior roles to then rise to mid-level and senior roles such as Lead Animators and Technical Directors, opening the path to becoming an Animation Supervisor.
Our students have gone to work in many areas of the industry, including 3D animation for films, TV, games and visual effects, at companies including Pixar, Blue Zoo and Framestore.
An undergraduate honours degree with a significant component in the field of animation or related discipline. Applicants without a degree who have significant industry experience in animation or related creative subjects will be considered. Suitable applicants will be asked to submit a postgraduate portfolio.
