Introduction
Art and technology merge to create your career. Everyone knows that animation fuels award-winning movies and special effects, but did you know that animation skills are also widely used in the advertising, engineering, architecture, and healthcare fields?
Introductory classes in animation teach you important, marketable skills, including:
modeling
rigging
texturing
digital sculpting
character animation
motion graphics
visual effects
compositing
Advanced classes incorporate the 548-square-foot Motion Capture Studio. Sixteen cameras project infrared light onto markers on a special suit, and then those markers appear as coordinates within a powerful software program. The result is better animations in less time.
Are you thrilled with virtual and augmented reality and ready to learn the skills that create those worlds? JCCC has the software and hardware for that, too. Create your own virtual reality projects for your portfolio.
