The Visual Effects programme is ideal for those who aim to work in the animated film and TV industries. The course provides a clear focus on the creation of 3D and 2D visual effects and simulation for 3D animation, film and television. On this programme, students will attain the skills in 3D modelling, scripting, rigging, animation and especially in compositing visual effects into animated products. Students will also gain experience of the wider pre-production and production pipelines in team modules shared with other animation and technical effects disciplines, where they can work as a generalist on design, pre-production, rigging, lighting and shaders, or in more specialist effects animation roles in simulation and post-production or rendering pipelines. The course contains a strong technical strand, ensuring students are fully literate in the rapidly changing technologies of 2D and 3D effects animation and simulation, in small or large productions for a variety of visual contexts, from the small and often unnoticed to the large and spectacular. This course is accredited by Skillset.
