Enrolment options
The Animation Strategies module considers the importance of understanding communication with a focus on team-based projects. Students will be encouraged to look at a wide range of possible outcomes in order to develop their ability to deal with design as an abstract concept where there is no single given or prescribed "solution". Outcomes may include animations, contemporary digital art, visual effects, live action compositing, research, and where appropriate the use of offline media. Students will develop an understanding of the importance of taking a holistic view of the subject area for developing and deploying strategies and creative problem solving that also involves a level of risk-taking and experimentation.
The module will help students develop the creative and technical requirements towards 2D and 3D animation and help develop individual interest areas between these mediums.
This module is 30 credits, as to be equal in importance and weighting to DES357 Character Creation which runs alongside the module in semester 1, both of which are practical focused studio modules.
