Our Animation BA programme focuses on the development of professional and theoretical knowledge and an individual vision, covering the essentials of animation storytelling, the authentic representation of characters, and the design of animated visuals, characters and backgrounds.
The project-based programme involves students completing at least one production per semester, and typically alternates individual and group development. By the end of the programme, they will have their own portfolio and be prepared for moving on to our Animation MA or starting their careers.
Our students will be able to leverage their knowledge of various animation techniques to work as animators and designers in animated film production, as well as in film, television and communication projects using the forms of expression of the genre.

The Intermezzo Festival will take place for the second time this year, launched by MOME and the House of Music, to the delight of all music, light painting, and animation lovers.
