| Award-winning Kiwi's Dream |
Their first module is PR6001, The Studio Project (worth 60 Credits) which runs for the whole academic year. It is a group module in which our animation students work together in teams to create short films - often winning festival awards.
Students collaborate to work together to a defined brief, designed as closely as possible to simulate working on a live client project.
The Studio Project Module is broken up into two projects; the first is the VFX Project. To see some fine examples of award-winning VFX Project work, check out Kiwi's Dream, BoxBots, Little Gestures, Home Sweet Home and Jerich0.
Studio Project 1: VFX project.
The VFX project runs for approximately 10 weeks, and the projects themselves are limited to 90 seconds in length.
Rendering in real time has become a major priority for many of our industry partners, such as Blue Zoo, saving time in post-production and permitting resources to be more efficiently deployed elsewhere in the pipeline.

Teamwork
The third year of animation at Escape Studios focuses on students working together in teams to create original content, industry-quality work, to formal deadlines.
Tutor: Paul Harrison
The third year of animation at Escape Studios is overseen by our newest animation tutor Paul Harrison, a skilled 3D generalist with many years of experience of animation, teaching and training, and is also supported by specialist tutors to provide bespoke training where needed.

In addition, students have access to our large and growing range of tutorials at our Vimeo Channel, allowing them to learn online and at their own convenience.
How to Get Ready
To get ready for September, we recommend that our students think about their ideas and pitches over the summer. Once term starts, there isn't a lot of time to spitball ideas, write scripts, and storyboard your work.
So, we hope our students have used the time available over the summer to polish their pitches - so they can hit the ground running in this week.

Studio Project 1: VFX project.
In this group project, which starts on 20 September, animation students
work alongside VFX students, both 3D and 2D, to create
professional-quality 3D animation, such as the short film Jerich0 below, which has won multiple awards: it was selected for the BFI London Film Festival, and was also short-listed for a student BAFTA.
