Why take this course?
For the creatively inclined, our course in 3D Modelling, Animation & Game Design will allow you to nurture your talents and bring your ideas to life. With a decades-old tradition of animated film making in Dublin, and recent Oscar nominations for a number of Irish productions, the animation industry in Ireland has never been stronger.

Have you ever wished that you could produce your own animations for web, devices, and video?

This 3D Modelling, Animation, and Game Design course will teach you how to model objects while developing high-quality 3D environments. You will then populate these environments with original characters, bringing them to life with the latest animation techniques.

Most of today's films and games would not be as exciting and sensational without talented animators bringing these characters to life.

What will You Experience?
You will develop the essential skills and knowledge in 3D modelling, animation, and game design that will enable you to take your first steps into a new career in this exciting field.

You will learn from an industry-experienced professional who will guide and support you to achieve your goals.
