Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Visual Effects

This course has been developed with input from leading practitioners in this rapidly growing field. A key focus of the course is on developing students’ technical, creative and professional skills across a variety of industry recognised roles: including 2D artist, roto artist, junior compositor, colourist, FX TD and more.

Throughout the course, the University aim to give students opportunities to contribute to, for example industry briefs, competitions, festivals, and hackathons to gain a real-time experience of working for companies and clients. In the final year of the course students will have the opportunity to specialise in either 2D or 3D to facilitate their progression toward industry. Students will have access to a range of digital film cameras, lighting, audio recording equipment and industry-standard software, as well as the use of television, film, greenscreen, and immersive studios, to enable students to produce high-quality visual effects (subject to availability). Students' learning will take place in purpose facilities that embody the immersive potential of emerging media and are supported by high profile industry professionals.
