Details
Students that elect to study animation will acquire life drawing skills and software rendering techniques for the development of cartoon characters and animated background.
Apart from honing visual conceptualisation expertise to create 2D and 3D animation for the various multimedia platforms – including internet, digital, television and movies – the curriculum also equips the students with ideas generation abilities for the development of stories.
Students will also get heightened exposure through cross training opportunities, such as to participate in the production of animated short films, collectively or individually.
