Academy of Interactive Technology

Bachelor of 2D Animation

Nationally Recognised Higher Education

Good 2D animation combines the craft of creative drawing, characterbuilding, landscape construction, story-telling, and human gesture and emotion articulation. We guide you to really hone your skills in areas such as drawing, character development, character animation, story and directing. Become adept at traditional animation skills like storyboarding, colour styling, bio-mechanics, movement, rigging, light and colour theory, as well as the principles of animation.

Delivered in our purpose-built 2D Animation Studio, you’ll be working side by side like-minded creatives on the latest animation software and hardware, just like in a professional studio.

You’ll also attend multiple creative studio lab subjects, so you are continually building your professional-grade portfolio, while receiving mentorship on how it’s done, by the best in the 2D Animation business.
