MUMD - 345. 3D Animation & Rigging

This advanced studio course bridges 3D modeling with animation, focusing on the creation and implementation of character rigs and animations within game environments. This course provides a comprehensive exploration of the techniques and tools to rig and animate both bipedal and non-bipedal characters, ensuring realistic and expressive movements that enhance gameplay experience. A series of portfolio building projects will help students improve their 3D painting, modeling, and texture skills while learning how to create animations in a digital space. Students will understand the history, theory, and aesthetics of this new medium and its relationship to the evolution of technology in the gaming industry. Basic Design Fee
