Course Introduction:
Here's your chance for a dynamic career in the explosively expanding
industry of computer animation which is extensively used in
television/film, animated simulation rides and walk-through, computer
games, and digital environments. This program offers a unique blend of
2D and 3D digital art skills, as well as an understanding of the
creative and technical processes involved. You will learn to draw,
visualize, and effectively apply color principles, with the mastery of
texture mapping, motion capture and animation. You will be able to
translate traditional art skills into the modeling of characters,
objects, scenes, and virtual worlds. Skills in audio and video
production are also covered so that story continuity and believability
become the hallmarks of your productions.
Opportunities:
There are a number of different career paths for animators. We often
think of animators as the talented artists who create the cartoons we
love, either for film or movies. Animators continue to work in these
areas, but increasingly, many are employed creating animated graphics
for a variety of projects.
- Website:
Web Design focuses on developing the visual graphic and information
design skills required to create compelling Web sites and also build
a strong foundation in a visual web design field. Students learn
design principles, software skills, visual thinking, and concept
development.
- Video Games:
The video game industry is just exploding right now, with no
slowdown in sight. Nearly all games will need a team of animators to
bring the games to life. Motion capture often is being used here as
well as in movies to nail down convincing character animation.
- Movies:
The full spectrum of animation in these areas is quite large. Jobs
may include character animation in the form of a cartoon, logo,
special effect and more. 3D really has taken off in the realm of
computer animation and animation in general. Movies such as Lord of
the Rings, Finding Nemo, the latest Star Wars prequels are all
relying extensively on 3D computer animation. Texture mapping,
lighting effects, collision detection and special effects also need
to be covered
- Television:
TV also offers a fair amount of opportunity in computer animation.
Commercials are littered with animated logos, cats that sing, and
bottles that dance, Local News always has an animator of some kind
doing the logo fly in or that kind of thing.
