The work our students create can be seen in TV shows, films, commercials and video games. This is where you belong if you are interested in the animated films of Pixar, Disney, Dreamworks and Sony Pictures Animation; the photo-real VFX work by Framestore, Technicolor Creative Studios, Industrial Light and Magic; or the art of video games from Rockstar Games, Activision Blizzard, Epic Games, and more.
3D Animation and Visual Effects majors are highly skilled artists who are adaptable and capable of solving the most complex visual challenges. Our students have the ability to anticipate and adapt to advances in applied technologies.
We teach the same advanced digital applications used in the film industry to give you the competitive edge to stand out in the creative fields of animation, VFX, virtual and augmented reality, and other emerging platforms. Your work might even do more than entertain us: you might also visualize complex medical procedures or architectural designs, create informational graphics or perform scientific simulations.
You will learn to think about your productions holistically, from inception through the pipeline, to completion and delivery. Your experiences are enhanced by fully equipped green screen, motion capture, sound recording and color correction studios. You work with professional artists in professional-caliber production labs where you learn narrative and story development skills that will last a lifetime.
