The 3D Animation Program is a project-based, one-year program with a focus on the creation of a professional-looking demo reel. Using the industry standard software (Maya), the RAIS 3D Animation Program will be your stepping stone into the television, film and video game industry.
The Rais Difference
Course Outline
Term 1 (2 months)
This first term will introduce students to the traditional animation methods required to enter into the world of 3D animation. Students will learn the 3D animation production pipeline (all of the steps in a project from conception to completion) and will be given an overview into Maya, the industry standard software.
Term 2-4 (6 Months)
The focus of these terms is project-based work that students can use for their professional demo reels (the artist’s resume in video form). These projects are designed so students can show the required skill and competency to potential employers after graduation. This project-based approach allows the instructors to create a production pipeline environment similar to a typical workplace. Through these projects, students will learn: Pre-Production, Modeling, UV Layout, Texturing, Surfacing, Lighting, Rigging, Animation, Rendering and Compositing, using Industry standard software (Maya, ZBrush, After Effects and Photoshop).
Term 5 (4 Months)
Each student determines the focus of their final project and pitches their idea to the instructors. Once approved, this final project will require the students to begin learning advanced techniques in their chosen field. Much of this advanced technique will be taught on a one-on-one basis by the instructors in direct relation to the student’s projects. Under the guidance of the instructors, the students will maintain a full production schedule and will finalize and produce the final cut of their reel.
Getting Hired in the High Tech Industry
During the final portion of Term 5, students will learn the necessary soft skills to advance in the tech industry.
Optional Computer Lab Time: The Animation Studio is available from 1pm – 9pm, Monday – Friday, for students to work on any school or personal projects. Students also receive a free Maya license (while attending RAIS) allowing them to work on class projects away from the school.
Our spacious, world class facility houses expansive audio recording and film production studios, computer labs, and a comfortable student lounge area.
Experiment with all aspects: graphics, animation and 3D. Create characters and settings according to your imagination. The basics of computer graphics (drawing, animation and 3D).
In the writing for animation certificate course, students acquire the skills to craft compelling narratives tailored for the animation, visual effects, and video game industries. The course is designed with flexibility in mind, offering live online classes to accommodate diverse schedules and learn...
An introduction to the basics of animation! Go over the 12 principles of animation, including an overview of various 2D approaches and styles, animation movement techniques, and a history of animation all through under camera animation technique.
The course has a programming approach to the concept of animation. While students can use any 3D software to basically create an animation, this particular course shows students how to write C++ programs that animates 2D and 3D characters and objects.
Participants will be introduced to the ABC’s of clay animation and will create their own 2-5 min cartoon in which their clay character will act according to their own scenario and speak with their own voice.
