About this course
This course is for people particularly interested in design, drawing and animation. The goals are to approach 2D and 3D design in a creative way, creating short animation films, video and sound, so it’s essential to have experience and a healthy curiosity in these areas. You’ll be presented with a number of professional opportunities when you’ve finished the course: graphic design specialist, videographer, video creator, video editor and graphic animator specialised in every aspect of the art.
In this course you’ll learn everything you want to know about graphic design, specialising in motion graphics and video production, opening the door to a wide and creative spectrum of work opportunities. When you’ve finished this course, you’ll have all the resources you need to animate your own graphics, tell stories in motion, add sound to your animations and convert them into an audiovisual format for mobile devices, screens, web, showcases, video projections or VR environments. What’s more, you’ll also learn the most effective storytelling techniques, and discover the digital tools used in recording, editing and post-production. You’ll turn the know-how you’ve acquired into hands-on experience, developing projects for real brands and clients. Last but not least, IED has its own photography and video studio, a sound lab, and state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment you can use to let your talent unfold without limits, and you can use the XR Lab to discover and experiment with the latest immersive experiences such as VR and AR.
