Course overview
Animation at JMC involves more than just bringing a character to life through technical ability. Through association with studio professionals from Pixar and Animal Logic, JMC Animation is born of a love affair between technology, creativity and science.
Animation is an essential ingredient in the collaborative, innovative and future-forward global entertainment industry, which is why some of the most in-demand players are animators and visual-effects specialists. Learn to design and develop characters and worlds – from concept to finished art – and create believable character performances and arresting graphical motion.
Take advantage of JMC’s industry-standard technology to bring your project to life, and add to your skills with extension electives like augmented and virtual reality, motion capture, and compositing. Build a polished portfolio and showreel and learn the essential skills of working in a studio with professional colleagues.
