Associate of Applied Science - Digital Animation

Digital animators create graphics for entertainment, advertising, special effects, education, science, information technologies, and the internet. Animators entertain, inform and communicate.

For television, film, video, presentation graphics, and the internet, animators are creating new ways to understand and enjoy the world. The contemporary opportunities to animate are boundless.

Traditional animation techniques, including cell animation, claymation, paper graphics, scratch-on, and puppet animations, are being used in the profession. New digital animation effects, software, and hardware are developed every year. Animators must learn about and master these new technologies. Before graduation, students in Digital Animation must develop proficiency in both traditional and digital animation techniques. Team-building and professional portfolio development prepare students for the digital workplace. One High School Mathematics Course or its equivalent is required.
