3D Animation

Students develop and carry out 2 projects during the 3rd year: a 3D animation project and a 3D animation short film presented to the professional end-of-cycle jury. Students learn to manage an entire production, design, writing, storyboarding, directing, animation and sound.

The 4th year of 3D animation is a year of technical and artistic development. The students work in groups and develop the pre-production of a 3D animation short film project. This project is developing in 2 years.

The 5th year of 3D animation is a year dedicated to the management and production of the animation shortmaking project started in the 4th year. This film is projected to the professional jury at the end of the cycle.
