- From Creative Coding to Digital Humans: Proceduralism as a Catalyst for Storytelling

Abstract:
Visual effects is a multi-disciplinary medium—how can we support the next generation of artists to engage deeply with animation, compositing, effects, and lighting in order to produce emotionally and visually compelling narrative work? How do we bridge the gulf between specialties that require an entire career to master? These are the key challenges we face in teaching the Master of Design Technology (MDT), a one-year graduate level program.
