ANIMATE YOUR FUTURE
RMCAD – WHERE YOUR CREATIVITY COMES TO LIFE
The field of animation merges the arts of acting, design, illustration, sculpture, and filmmaking with today’s technology. To be successful, animators must understand how to use technical tools and professional production techniques to create strong narratives.
That’s why RMCAD’s curriculum is focused on creating compelling content to tell stories. Whether you’re using hand-drawn, computer, stop-motion, or experimental animation, you’ll be focused on storytelling through your craft. Whether you choose to pursue 2D or 3D animation, you’ll graduate with a portfolio reel that will set you apart by showcasing your unique artistic voice, a strong visual style, and the ability to communicate through animation.

What’s really nice about the RMCAD community is that it is a community. We’re all good friends and we keep in contact. A lot of the people that I was here with are working in the industry, so that says how important those relationships are.
