3D Animation for Film and TV

This module will build on the skills developed through 3D modelling 1 and 2. Students on this module will focus on 3D modelling and Animation for the Film and Television industry.
Students will develop a series short animated production following the animation production pipeline from script to final short.  The module encourages a unique creative output. The module will focus on enhancing students skills and building their portfolio for a carrier in film and tv production.
Students will combine their knowledge of the 3D production pipeline with the extended animation production pipeline for moving image, incorporating environment design, character animation to tell a unique narrative story.
Students will also be encouraged to develop transferable 3D skills in associated fields of industrial design, VFX, VR and AR; with a focus on building a portfolio for animated film and tv production.
