Animation Production Arts University Bournemouth (AUB)

The AUB MA Animation Production philosophy sees observation, drawing and an understanding of the traditional principles of animation as fundamental, but these are critically contextualised in relation to technology, history, theory and professional/studio practice.

The overriding objective is to enable all Animation students to see themselves as part of a 'community of practice' (that includes research and critique, and the building of a 'production culture'), existing not as atomised students 'doing their own thing', but as part of a meaningful whole.

If you are a graduate of Arts University Bournemouth, or hold a 2.1 from another university, you may be eligible for a discount towards MA study at AUB.
