Introduction
Animation and Games are two of the fastest-growing industries in the world which will increasingly feature in our everyday lives. With technological development at the stage they are today, it proves impossible to tell truth from fiction.
The film, games and VFX industries are always searching for new talent. BA (Hons) Animation and Games Art will allow you to explore the pre-production pipeline and be able to apply animation to a wide range of media. You will study and develop traditional animation techniques, plus key digital skills in 2D and 3D, while learning the core principles of character-led animation.
