Animation is a central area in the creative and audiovisual industries of the new millennium. The students' work is oriented towards the creation of animated film projects that involve diverse artistic techniques and practices, such as 3D modelling, lighting and texturing; visual effects that integrate real image and 3D image; the design, editing and graphics for video; the study of characters and narratives.
