Program Description: Motion Graphics Assistant TCC (also known as Multi-media artists and animators) combines the specialist skills of pre-production, production and an emphasis on post-production. Motion Graphics are graphics that use video and/or animation technology to create the illusion of motion or a transforming appearance. Students develop valuable industry standard techniques and become adept with using various software applications to integrate 2D and 3D design elements with live footage, audio and visual effects artistry.
Job/Career Description: Multimedia artists and animators create special effects, animation, or other visual images on film, on video, or with computers or other electronic media. They work primarily in the motion picture and video industries, advertising, and computer systems design services. They draw by hand and use computers to create the series of pictures that form the animated images or special effects seen in movies, television programs, and computer games. Some draw storyboards for television commercials, movies, and animated features.
