Advanced Program in Animation and VFX

Course overview

The Advanced Program in Animation and VFX offers a rigorous, industry-aligned curriculum designed to transform learners into versatile professionals capable of excelling in animation, visual effects, and digital media production. Beginning with foundational principles of visual storytelling, students explore cinematography techniques, color theory, and lighting strategies to craft compelling narratives and evoke emotion. They hone skills in digital image manipulation, motion graphics, and audio-visual integration, creating polished content for diverse platforms. The program then transitions to advanced 3D artistry, where learners master character design, 3D modeling, texturing, and lighting to build realistic assets, while diving into rigging and animation techniques to breathe life into digital characters. The final phase focuses on cutting-edge visual effects, including dynamic simulations, procedural effects, and advanced compositing, enabling students to seamlessly blend digital elements with live-action footage and replicate natural phenomena.
