The Computer Animation Technical Arts (Hons) course at Bournemouth UniversityÊis a development of the Computer Visualisation and Animation course which ran for over 20 years, producing graduates who now work all over the world, as technical artists/directors, software producers and games developers in some of the leading animation and production houses, software houses, and computer game and digital media companies. This includes graduates whoÕve gone on to win Oscars such as Mark Ardington. ?

Technical Art/Direction is the practice of using art/animation and computing/maths skills to solve aesthetic problems. This course is a unique 50/50 mix of art and science, reflecting practice relevant to the production of computer graphics and animation for a range of industries and applications. Once you finish the course youÕll be able to create art and animation using computer code and will be able to describe technical ideas using film and animation.
