Bachelor of Animation Production

Designed for those with a passion for visual arts, drawing and storytelling, the Bachelor of Animation Production teaches students how to take a vision from an idea to a concept, and ultimately to a finished product ready for viewers.

Built on an ‘applied animation’ approach, students learn how to observe the world around them, drawing directly from life to gain inspiration for characters and stories. They discover how to think creatively and develop ideas through multiple stages, focusing on character development, narrative and performance. They also learn fundamental 2D and 3D animation skills to bring their stories to life.

At UTS, students benefit from outstanding industry connections. Across the degree, students have the opportunity to work with live projects, such as VIVID or collaborations with the Australia Piano Quartet. UTS also has strong relationships with leading industry players such as Flying Bark Productions and Animal Logic.
