Abstract:
The Department of Digital Media at the University of Central Florida has developed a unique Visual Language Track that offers a select group of students the opportunity to learn skills needed for a career in computer animation. The Junior Year focuses on the design aspects of story telling, such as traditional animation, art direction and story-boarding followed by intense workshops applying those principles while learning all the steps of the computer animation production process. Senior Year students work together as members of the class cohort on a narrative digital animation production through a highly integrated structure of courses. This affords each student the opportunity to learn and contribute to every artistic and technical step in the computer animation production process.
