Aaliyah

University of Hertfordshire

Animation, film, games and creative media

Hi, I'm Aaliyah!
I am a final-year Games Art student and want to work hard to hone my skills and improve as a character artist! I am also a producer so if you want to talk about that specialism within Games and VFX then feel free to ask.
You might be feeling a bit worried or uneasy about what there is and what the course entails but I am here to answer all your questions. No matter how big the question or how small :)
Whilst I'm not in the other animation pathways (3D/VFX, 2D animation, Comic & Concept Art) I can always give my knowledge in those areas too. Just pop a message over!
Very excited to talk about the courses with you :D

Kiya

Bournemouth University

BA (Hons) Computer Animation Art and Design

Hello! I'm Kiya, a student ambassador for Bournemouth University, studying Animation. Our course here is strongly focused on 3D animation, which allows us to explore industry-standard tools and techniques. While we don’t have a specific 2D animation unit, life drawing is a key part of the curriculum and really helps to develop an understanding of movement and anatomy—skills that are critical in both 2D and 3D animation.

I’ve always been fascinated by the way animation brings stories to life, whether it’s through films, musicals, or even video games. I’m especially inspired by movies like *Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse* for its incredible use of both 2D and 3D animation, and musicals like "back to the future the musical" which bring so much color and energy to storytelling along side film techniques on stage . Those influences really shape my creative process, and I often find myself blending styles from different mediums in my personal projects.

BU has given me a solid foundation in 3D animation through software like Maya and Unreal Engine, but what really excites me is how the course encourages us to think creatively and find our own artistic voice. It’s not just about the technical skills; it’s about how you tell a story visually and emotionally.

If you have any questions about the Animation course, BU, or why bournemouth is such a good place for animation students, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to share my experience and passion for animation!
