Programme Learning Outcomes
Level 4
At Level 4 of the programme students will be introduced to the world of multimedia, especially the potential of visual communication. The modules of this programme will allow the students to explore experiment, criticize, and share the ideas from traditional animation to the latest cutting edge technology in the media sector and also to research and develop new ideas to solve various visual communication issues.
The modules Birth of Animation and Visual exploration will enable the students to explore and research the concepts behind invention of moving images and basic principles in drawing. Adobe Photoshop and Autodesk Maya modules encourage the students to learn the techniques of manipulating 2D images and 3D environment.
The supporting module Digital photography will allow the students to understand the timeline of modern digital photography and basic principles of digital imaging. Adobe Premier Module 3D ANIMATION & GAMINI DESIGN DIGIMATION COURSES explains the ways and techniques in visual problem solving and also the basic principles in video editing. The modules in this Level self-motivate the students to understand the basic principles of multimedia and provide historical, theoretical and practical knowledge about animation and visual effects.
Students will be able to demonstrate a basic knowledge and understanding of:
• The fundamental theories of visual communication and the birth of moving images.
• The wide range of historical and contemporary concepts of animation, photography and video editing.
• Bringing out the creativity skills within them.
• Sketching techniques, concept arts and pre-production pipeline for animation.
• Latest technologies and media relevant to the subject.

Programme Learning Outcomes
Level 5
At Level 5 of the programme students are encouraged to develop an understanding of the unique nature of their chosen award. The main objective of the modules in this level is to make the students reasonably knowledgeable of every single aspect of the 3D animation production process and create a specialist in one of the areas of the production process.
Students will go through a more personal and self-motivated exploration in their area of interest and the module ‘Directed Projects in 3D’ will guide them to achieve it in the form of their Portfolios. In addition to this the students will be motivated to study and research about the evolution of contemporary animation through the module ‘history of animation’ and able to interpret different multimedia techniques through ‘Research Methods’ which will allow the students to study and criticize the pros and cons of any multimedia process.
Within the specialist area of animation the students will be encouraged to discuss ideas, analyse, plan, implement their own creative skills and their capacity for independent thought will be emphasised. This will enable the students to prepare themselves for the independent study at Level 6.
Students will be able to demonstrate a developing knowledge and understanding of:
• The evolution of contemporary animation techniques and visual effects.
• Methodologies, plans, implementation techniques to derive a production pipeline and to communicate visually through the animation outcomes.
• Research and develop plans to create animation for any type of audience and the ability to understand the purpose of any particular visual communication.
• Development, experimentation and implementation of a unique visual identity within animation and visual effects through the use of wide range digital media technology at their disposal.
