Course summary

Animation combines drawing, crafting, experimentation, filmmaking, and storytelling. It gives artists many skills to tell powerful, personal stories.

On our Animation degree, you’ll learn the artistic insight, technical skills, and creative vision needed for animation. You’ll step into a growing creative industry, which includes film and TV animation, motion graphics, and illustration. Our degree covers both 2D and 3D filmmaking.

Work on various projects to learn about character animation and visual storytelling. Then, you can explore production, compositing, and editing.

You’ll also learn from professionals from all walks of the animation industry. Some have worked for Disney, Sony, and Cartoon Network. Others have led visual effects for popular films like The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Chronicles of Narnia.

Animation is more than art and technology. At Portsmouth, you’ll also think about how media affects society and the ethical side of animation.
