How to apply
To find out more, and apply for the course, follow this link to the official site: MA 3D Animation
You might be a 2D animator wanting to break into 3D, or a graduate who didn’t get the right skills at university – or someone with no experience of animation who wants to make a career change. A MA is especially useful for any practitioner who wants to teach their subject at university level.
We teach all our students from scratch, and our goal is to make you job-ready by the end of the course.
Entry Requirements
We look for an undergraduate honours degree (such as a Batchelor of Arts), ideally (but not necessarily) with a significant component in the field of animation or a related arts or computer discipline.
Scholarships
We also offer a scholarship to one MA student, worth up to £8,000. You can find the details here.
What's this course all about?
We take you through all the essential principles of animation from the very beginning – bouncing a ball – through to sophisticated character and creature animation.
We start with the basics of motion and locomotion, building up to pantomime, character performance, and also tackling animals and creatures.
Job opportunities
London has a strong focus on visual effects work and we want our students to be able to tackle the challenges and opportunities in our local market.
By the end of the course you should have a polished video portfolio in the shape of an online demo reel to help you find work in this growing but competitive industry.
Course Design
The animation program has been refined over many years, constantly being adapted to suit the needs of industry, and following extensive industry consultation. The Masters' degree course combines the existing 12 week courses structure of our animation short course with two extra modules, a studio project module and a self-study module.
Module Structure
Course Leader
The lead tutor is Lee Caller, an award-winning animator with an MA in 3D Animation and a superb sense of comic timing and storytelling. Lee has been teaching our short course animators for many years, and has considerable experience helping students break into the industry.
Lee teaches our MA and Short Course students the first three modules on the course.

The Escape Studios Animation Blog offers a personal view on the art of animation and visual effects.
Hey this post is really awesome. good job keep posting! 3D animations bring digital worlds to life, combining modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation. Characters, objects, and environments are crafted in software like Blender, Maya, or Cinema 4D. Animators create movement through keyframes, rigging bones, and physics simulations, refining timing and motion curves for realism. Lighting and shading enhance visual appeal, while rendering transforms the scene into a sequence of frames. Post-production adds effects and compositing for a polished result. Whether for entertainment, education, or advertising, 3D animations captivate audiences with immersive storytelling and stunning visuals.
