One of the first modules they will tackle is PR6001; a Studio Project module worth 60 Credits and which runs for the whole academic year. In PR6001 our animation and vfx students work together in teams to create short films - winning many 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 an Unreal Engine Project, the second is the VFX Project. To see some examples of award-winning project work, check out Kiwi's Dream, BoxBots, Little Gestures, Home Sweet Home and Jerich0.
Studio Project 1: Unreal Engine Project - September 2023
For our animation students, Studio Project 1 - the Unreal Engine Project - starts in September 2023. In the Unreal Engine Project, animation students create professional-quality animation, using the Unreal Engine pipeline, which utilises real-time rendering.
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.
Studio Project 2: VFX project.
The VFX project runs for approximately 12 weeks; the films are usually around 90 seconds long.
PR6001 is taught by our third year animation and VFX tutors, all of who have extensive experience of working in industry:

Malloe and Minuet
Successful Unreal Engine projects include Malloe and Minuet. Both Malloe and Minuet have won multiple festival awards.
In this group project, which starts in January 2024, 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.
