"MA Animation at Glamorgan is a platform for you
to pursue your career goals by revising, updating and
originating new skills. We aim to produce flexible, highly
skilled animators who can make a significant contribution
to the field of animation.
This course is unique in its content and direction, and
takes account of the changing nature of this discipline
and its related markets. There are two distinct pathways
within the course. The first option allows you to study
the process and concepts of film making, regardless of
whether you have a traditional background in animation
and want to pursue personal development, or if you have
been on a course related to animation and wish to transfer
those skills. The second option extends to students who
want to develop ground-breaking new themes and techniques
with sponsors or animation companies.
Our strong commercial links challenge you to excel in
the wider national and international marketplace to develop
animated themes based around music, television, theatre
and computer programming. Our graduates have advanced
practical, intellectual and entrepreneurial skills and
are in an ideal position to exploit the demand for higher
level creative personnel in ever-expanding media sectors,
including the communication industries.
Course Content:
You will develop a major project through the following
modules.
• Pre-Production: How to expand
and execute intellectual, practical and narrative skills
• Production: Develop your skills
in planning and development methodology and apply them
to the design of animation sequences or an animation-related
project
• Post-Production: You will research,
conceptualise and discover new methods and approaches
to an animation in post-production, culminating in the
completion of a major animation sequence, pilot or project.
