The Level 8, 10 ECTS, programme is aimed at learners considering pursuing a career in motion design and multimedia. Motion design combines the fundamentals of graphic design and animation – it is the art of applying graphic design principles to create relatively simple pieces of animation, for the web, TV, or film.
This means working on 2D and 3D animation, using After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Premiere Pro software. This might be a credit sequence for a TV show or movie, or it could be a minimalist commercial or explainer video, such as an advertisement.
