Whether as a group or as an individual, you will be able to explore the art of making videos, creating 3D animation and 3D experiences, digital art, designing apps, AR and VR or gaming. You get to decide what you want to create and how you want to do it (on approval by the course team).
The course has its roots in art, photography, and digital media. With a range of innovative tech and media, you will switch between long established formats and structures of commercial media production (film and TV, animation, and mass market games design), and new emerging formats (augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), extended reality (XR), casual games, interactive animation and interaction design, projection mapping, immersive experiences, and responsive advertising and immersive installation experiences.
