With the right education, an Animator learns to combine visual effects with live action to breathe life into 2D and 3D objects by modeling bone, skin and features, and then adding animated lifelike motions. At Westwood College, you can get that education. Because animation is a blend of art and technology, those working in the field will not only require creativity and good visualization skills, but also specialized training in industry-relevant design software and digital media equipment.
