Movement & Narrative is part of CR4002, the Creative Foundations Craft Module, a foundation course in creativity and creative thinking. The module is compulsory for all our first year students, whether they are studying games, animation or VFX.

Some software, such as Photoshop and Premiere, is taught in this module; but students are mainly encouraged to explore creative ideas and creative ways of thinking. 

Common First Year
In their first year of studies, all our undergraduate students study a common art and design curriculum, enabling them to understand the whole animation, games and VFX pipeline before committing to a single specialism in their second year.
