Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Games Animation

If students want to take their digital art and animation skills to the next level and turn their passion into a career, our BA (Hons) Games Animation degree course at UCA Farnham is for you.

On this course students will learn the techniques used to make game characters come alive, and how you, as an animator, can create an exciting and compelling performance. They will learn the principles of creating appealing animation, and how these can be adapted to the world of video games, to build characters that respond dynamically to player input and most importantly feel great to play. Students will develop traditional artistic skills alongside digital ones, gaining an understanding of the latest software and techniques.

Students will also work in our state-of-the-art Vicon motion capture suite, learning the processes used on ‘AAA’ games to capture an actor’s performance, alongside our other cutting-edge facilities including our virtual production studio, Rococo mocap suits, and extensive AR/VR facilities
