About the programme

You work through drawing and design fundamentals into 2D and 3D animation, modelling, compositing and editing. College of Future's alliances with award-winning studios, Trixter (animation and visual effects on Iron Man 3) and AnimaPoint / AnimaVitae (producers of the NIKO films), mean you spend time working the way real productions work.
