Fanshawe College's 3D Animation and Character Design program is an 8-month graduate certificate designed for students to hone previous multimedia skills into a valued and sought-after skill in the job market.

Students will animate their ideas for game engines/development by life drawing and storyboarding, 3D design modelling, texture mapping and lighting, character design, video editing and audio effects creation. They will also develop their creative concepts while learning to plan and manage projects.

Graduates are prepared to work as a 3D animator, character designer, effects artist, storyboard artist and level designers for the film, video, computer animation and game industries. Graduates are also employed with companies creating television commercials, industrial and commercial videos and educational material, in addition to architecture and real estate design and promotion.

Students will study in the heart of London's digital media sector, at Fanshawe College's London Downtown Campus. Their ability to create characters while nurturing love of arts and design is the first step. Taking these passions into the dynamic media technology sector will be their destiny.
