A range of project-led themes to establish the importance of computer animation and its role within its related disciplines is covered; considerable time is spent on examining how visual images, 1st created on paper (2-dimensional), can be manipulated and enhanced using computer technology so that the final result (2- or 3-dimensional) can be delivered in an animated and potentially interactive form using digital media such as CDs and websites; animation skills within the courses are developed using industry-standard software such as Autodesk Maya and Newtek Lightwave; work is carried out individually as well as in groups, so that students are able to develop important team-working skills from an early stage; fundamental to the animation theme is the requirement for students to develop end products which are innovative and visually exciting, or that effectively tell stories that can captivate and maintain audience interest.
