For those who have a passion for visual arts, drawing and storytelling, the Bachelor of Creative Production in Animation combined with a Bachelor of Creative Intelligence and Innovation at UTS is the fastest route to creating animated work supported by powerful ideas that will speak to a global audience.


Located in the heart of the Sydney’s creative industries precinct, UTS is a place where the technology economy meets a vibrant arts and cultural scene. Collaborating on a range of productions, UTS Animation students learn how to develop their ideas through multiple stages, whilst focusing on character, development, narrative structure and performance. In our studio-based classes you will work with your peers in a professional and collaborative atmosphere as you learn the 2D, 3D and hybrid animation skills that are necessary to bring your ideas to life. As a student you will have the opportunity to work with industry partners, such as ABC Podcasts, VIVID, and the Australia Piano Quartet. UTS Animation also has long-standing relationships with Sydney's local studios such as Flying Bark Productions, Mighty Nice, Cheeky Little Media and Dave Enterprises.


What sets this course apart is its transdisciplinary approach, integrating diverse perspectives and real-world projects to prepare you for complex industry challenges. From an Animation perspective it is its emphasis on observation and life drawing as sources of inspiration, fostering creativity in character and story development as you set out to master 2D, 3D, and hybrid techniques. Its distinctiveness lies in the integration of professional animation skills with language skills and cultural insights, alongside the chance to study abroad.


UTS student productions have screened at prestigious festivals in Australia and overseas. Graduates from UTS Animation become image-makers, critical thinkers and storytellers in equal measure, creating original content for film, TV, advertising and other screen-based media that engages audiences around the globe. This course is accredited by CILECT, the international association of the world’s major film and television schools.


Graduates from the Bachelor of Animation Production are image-makers, critical thinkers and storytellers in equal measure and we help equip them to become leaders in this industry. Students will learn to develop, pitch and defend ideas, and ultimately create original content for film, TV, advertising and other screen-based media that will engage global audiences.


One of the benefits of studying our Bachelor of Animation Production is the link to UTS’s existing industry connections that help give students that competitive advantage. Students have the opportunity to work with live projects and active partners, such as ABC Podcasts, VIVID, the Australia Piano Quartet, and other collaborations with international universities at the Annecy MIFA campus etc. UTS also has long-standing relationships with Sydney's local animation studios such as Flying Bark Productions, Mighty Nice, Cheeky Little Media, Dave Enterprises, and Animal Logic which offer students multiple opportunities to engage in practice while studying.


UTS understands that teamwork is at the heart of the animation industry which is why a studio-led approach is used to create a high-intensity practical environment where students learn how to work with their peers in a professional and collaborative atmosphere, melding creativity, technology and research.


By focusing on the high-level conceptual thinking and problem-solving practices that lead to the development of innovative, creative and entrepreneurial outcomes, students of the combined degree also gain leading edge capabilities that are highly valued in the globalised world, including dealing with critical and creative thinking, invention, complexity, innovation, future scenario building and entrepreneurship, and the ability to work on their own, across and between other disciplines. These creative intelligence competencies enable graduates to navigate across a rapidly accelerating world of change.
