Motion Design fuses the technical skills, artistic aesthetics, and creativity of animation, graphic design, and video/film production to create
compelling and moving visual imagery that can entertain, educate, inform, influence, or inspire. This kind of work can be seen anywhere that
production design really matters.
Motion Design students build extensive knowledge working with cutting-edge tools for an ever expanding field, encompassing title and credit
sequences for films and television, informational graphics for news and social media, animations for music videos and live events, animated
advertisements, motion branding, VR/AR/MR/XR visual experiences, and much more. Hands-on opportunities begin the first year with
foundational art and postproduction techniques and progress through a sequence of classes learning not only about the creation of
cinematic moving art but how to operate motion design pieces in a variety of production environments including our 40-foot mobile television
production lab and state of the art XR stage.
