Visual Effects

The Visual Effects Course trains students to model, animate, render, and assemble computer-generated effects. Through research, observation, and evaluation, students develop techniques for simulating environmental and dynamic forces of nature. In this course, students use art and technology to recreate natural phenomenon and other elements found in nature to generate additional realism to a scene. In addition, a study of dynamic interaction of geometry, secondary motion effects, and rendering techniques assists students in the creation of photorealistic effect elements.
