What Will I Learn?

Resources are personalized to the student's skill level and chosen project, building upon the skills learned in Animation 20L. Students will require excellent time management and independent learning skills.

This course includes resources developed in partnership with Vancouver Animation School (VANAS).

Students will also create an online portfolio, which will include artifacts created throughout the course. Not only does this portfolio allow an animator to showcase their work, it will be a valuable asset when applying to post-secondary institutions and when job seeking in this field.
