Framestore team for ‘Gravity’)
“It was Pixar’s short film ‘The Adventures Of Andre and Wally B’
that really inspired me to want to be a 3D Artist. SAE did a good
job of getting in reps from successful VFX companies, showing
off their company reel and talking about what they do. This got
me really pumped since I literally had no idea successful VFX
studios even existed in Australia.”

ALEX HALSTEAD brisbane, animatioN
“Studying at SAE was a great launching pad into the world of 3D Animation. It gave me the necessary tools and information I needed to help get me ready for the industry.”

BACHELOR OF ANIMATION
UNDERTAKE THE BACHELOR OF ANIMATION AND BUILD
YOUR EXPERTISE IN ALL FACETS OF ANIMATION.
Students will develop fundamental skills and knowledge in this
exciting industry in areas such as 3D modelling, character animation,
rigging, textures, project management, teamwork, lighting, rendering
and compositing. Developing an understanding of these areas
provides students with a solid foundation and context for further
study before exploring in detail the specialist areas.
During your time at SAE, you will learn on industry-standard
software such as Maya, Autodesk 3D MAX and the Adobe
Creative Suite.
Each degree program is broken up into discrete stages
designed to promote different skills:
STAGE i – FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
You will undertake a number of foundational units that will give
you the essential technical skills and knowledge, relevant to your
discipline, to collaborate with other creative media students and
professionals in later stages of the program.
• Storytelling for contemporary media
• Principles of design
• Fundamentals of drawing
• Foundations of 3D graphics
• Principles of animation
• Project management and professional etiquette
• Critical and creative thinking
• Contemporary industry overview.
Stage II – Interdisciplinary Projects,
Media and Cultural Studies
In Stage II, you will participate in simulated project groups,
working towards large-scale deliverables each trimester.
We will get you to apply your Stage I skills in a deeper context and
help you work within the contemporary creative media workforce.
You will also learn how your work contributes to and interacts
with broader culture and media practice. This knowledge will
enable you to work with a variety of other disciplines and artists to
expand your potential on the global stage.
You will complete a number of real-world projects with students
not only in your own discipline, but in all other SAE disciplines.

As part of your learning in Stage II, you will be given the opportunity
to work as project specialists within the following areas. The types
of projects and project roles you choose to undertake will determine
what area of specialisation you fall within.
Stage II has studio modules with projects based on
the following areas:
In 3D Modelling, you will examine modelling techniques, terminology
and methods. You will develop and implement 3D production
pipelines to create such things as environments, vehicles, creatures
and characters. You will also research industry best practices and
keep up-to-date with current trends in CGI production.
This specialisation will further explore texturing and shading,
lighting and rendering.
3D MODELLING1
CHARACTER ANIMATION2
In the Character Animation specialisation, you will focus on the
principles of character animation such as posing, motion studies,
body mechanics, facial animation and much more.
You will also learn to develop effective and user-friendly animation
rigs that serve as a means to control and animate a character,
similar to the controls of a puppet.
VISUAL EFFECTS3
In the Visual Effects specialisation, you will explore the
areas of modelling, texturing, lighting, rendering and
compositing with an emphasis on incorporating assets
into a range of digital media. You will investigate topics
such as match moving, particle systems, dynamic
simulations and colour grading.
By the end of the course, you will be able to composite a
range of disparate elements into a cohesive final product.
16
Stage III – Interdisciplinary Projects and WORK PLACEMENTS
Stage III is the final part of your studies. Here you will undertake an interdisciplinary
project of your choice – the final and most ambitious portfolio project of the course.
In this stage, you will also undertake an elective unit and gain valuable workplace
experience with our innovative industry internship program.
By the time you graduate, you will be proficient in Maya, Autodesk 3D MAX and the
Adobe Creative Suite and will have built a portfolio to demonstrate your skills in your
chosen specialisation, including the ability to produce collaborative creative films,
interactive media titles and more. You will have real-world skills, having worked in a
simulated environment, making the transition from study to workplace seamless.
