The world of 3D computer generated imagery (CGI) and animation provides significant cultural and economic contribution to the UK through games, films, TV, advertising and visualisation, and the UK’s leading animation and visualisation studios are constantly on the look for new and emerging talent. In 2015, Bournemouth was recognised as the fastest growing digital economy in the UK. Our degree programmes offer a solid base of 3D skills, and we have been training students and preparing them for the creative industries since 2002, making Bournemouth & Poole College a great place to study 3D Animation.
You don’t need any previous experience to join our foundation degree course, and all assessment is through coursework-based units. There is an individual project element central to each year of study which will enable you create an amazing portfolio and enhance your future career prospects. You will work in a studio environment with small groups of typically 10-20 students, and where you will practice fundamental skills linked to art and visualisation subjects which are taught throughout the course. Whatever your level and specific interests, we encourage the development of storytelling techniques, creativity, technical and visual communication skills.
