Course Description

The Certificate II in Creative Industries (Media) - Specialising in 3D Animation is designed to introduce students to the many career opportunities available for 3D artists, animators and designers. This course gives student an understanding of the creative potential of the 3D animation software used in the games, film and visual effects industry.

The course covers the fundamentals of 3D animation including:

  • 3D modeling,
  • Texturing;
  • Animation;
  • Lighting;
  • Rendering;
  • Character design;
  • Environment design;
  • Short movie production;

The Certificate II concludes in an production unit wherein students will work together to produce a short animated film. Students start by planning their animation with concept art and storyboards, modelling and animating their designs throughout the production process and finish by editing sound, music and special FX into the final product.

The Certificate II in Creative Industries (Media) serves as a valuable bridge to further study in 3D animation, including 3D animation for games or film.  Graduates leave with a portfolio of work, knowledge and skills useful in many other multimedia and design areas.

For students currently studying in year 11 or 12 at an ACT or NSW College/High School, this course may be counted towards your Higher School Certificate or Year 12 Certificate. For more information, please contact your school VET co-ordinator or AIE reception.
