ANIMATED ARTS

Animated Arts invites you to reimagine ways to create framebased work by combining fine art creative practices and digital technology.

Our production-based program is designed to build skills in both animation principles and ideation, allowing students to develop a strong personal voice and style to drive projects and collaborative productions. Student work includes character-driven narrative, poetic experimental, non-fiction documentary, gaming, gallery installation, and interactive projection. Facilities support 2D drawn, 3D digital, stop-motion animation and fabrication, AR/ VR, and animation for gaming. Visiting artists, creative thinkers, and innovative technicians from Portland’s lively animation scene enrich the learning experience and create bridges to post PNCA career opportunities.
