If you are interested in learning about computer animation, join us for this two-week intensive 3D animation class. This course will cover essentials like the twelve principles of animation and the industry-standard software Maya to help you bring objects and characters to life. Gain a working knowledge of programs, software, and animation physics to create your own animated short film.

Class culminates in a gallery-style showcase of artwork and a family-and-friends screening of all final projects.

This class heavily involves 3D computer software and is intended for students interested in learning the process of animation. Students will be working on computers for the majority of the session. This class is recommended for students with some experience in animation.
