Animation at the Kansas City Art Institute

In KCAI’s animation program, students receive instruction in classical, experimental and computer animation, but one solution is never prioritized over another. The curriculum includes a suite of classes that emphasize different aspects of the creative process: animation principles, concept modeling, production methods, history, theory and technique.

Animation students benefit from interaction with visiting artists and industry professionals who present lectures and demonstrations and engage with students in interactive, hands-on critiques and workshops.
