    About

    What is a Diploma of 3D Design and Animation?

    A Diploma of 3D Design and Animation doesn’t just teach you the basics – it electrifies your creativity. Forget the static; we're talking about a crash course in modelling, rigging, animation, texturing, lighting and composition. You'll master the essentials while also carving out your niche.

    Throughout the course, you'll build a portfolio to show off your creative genius to potential employers. With guidance from our crew of academic mavericks and industry legends, you'll learn how to tell stories that pop, bring characters and digital worlds to life, and nail those client briefs. You'll also lock down a solid foundation in both the theory and tech behind 3D design, with a sneak peek into the specialised areas that could be your ticket to standing out in the field. Graduate from the Diploma of 3D Design and Animation with the skills to either dive deeper into studies or kickstart your career with an entry-level gig in the industry. Please note that some specialised subjects may be delivered online only.
