INNOVATING THE FUTURE OF 3D ANIMATION EDUCATION

Studens' Animation Projects

Professors James Martin and Max Thomas at the Creative Media Industries Institute in Atlanta, Georgia, use Reallusion iClone software to introduce first-time animation to students through practical, real-world production scenarios. The structured approach ensures that students not only learn the technical skills for today's environment, but also understand the workflow and collaborative nature of the industry.

ENTERING THE NEW HOLLYWOOD

Atlanta, Georgia is the new Hollywood of the south with a conglomerate of studios and soundstages housing many of the top productions in film and television. From Trilith Studios to Tyler Perry Studios and many more, there is an epicenter of production in Atlanta and throughout Georgia due to tax incentives driving many to call Georgia home for their productions. Recently movies and television from Disney's Marvel Studios, Netflix and Warner Bros, among others have wrapped production in Georgia. Productions locally provide students and staff with engagement opportunities in real world productions.
