| Advanced Scripting | An advanced Technical Director class that examines basic programming and scripting techniques as related to specific CGI applications. Included are research, development, writing and testing of expressions and plug-ins for 2-D and 3-D software. Projects are integrated with other animation classes to solve production problems or create new CGI tools. | Class |
| Animation Layout + Production Design | Students explore different stylistic approaches for individual animated productions, and design original characters and environments. Areas of study include perspective, character and prop model sheets, background and character layouts, and proportion sheets (for multiple characters in a production). | Class |
| Design + Animation for Games | This elective is an introduction to the arena of interactive game design. Students create digital animations that may be used in game design and creation. At the conclusion of the course, students understand the foundations of good game design, including story development, level design and modeling, lighting and texturing. Prerequisite: AN 3360 3-D Computer Animation Concepts + Techniques | Class |
| Experimental Computer Animation | Advanced students explore their creative ideas by stepping outside the boundaries of digital animation technology and art through the historic study and creation of unique animation. This experimental course allows the exploration of various forms of computer animation as a means of expression. | Class |
| Scriptwriting for Animation | This course is designed to give students an opportunity to experience another facet of animation pre-production: the script. Students develop a rough story idea, including characters, settings, conflicts, resolutions, and develop of a final, 22-minute script. Several smaller creative assignments lead to the final project. | Class |
