Description

This subject advances students’ knowledge and skills in the development of both narrative and non-narrative forms of animation. Students build on their fundamental animation skills, with a continuing emphasis on animation and film language.

Projects focus on the production of animated sequences as final outcomes, with a strong emphasis on experimentation and creative risk-taking. The subject expands on building both representational and conceptual narratives for animation through visual and auditory stimuli.

Students explore composition, colour theory, staging, timing, and movement to sound, as well as the application of animation principles within different contexts. The introduction of multiple software platforms supports the studio projects and broadens the students' knowledge of professional practice.
