What animation and vfx covers

  • Animation alongside compositing and effects
  • Digital environments, creatures and simulation
  • Pipeline and team production
  • Showreel preparation

This is a practical field: expect studio work, software use and collaborative projects. Software and equipment are recorded on each profile only where the school publishes them.

Dedicated degree, official pathway or broader degree

  • Dedicated degree (0): The degree itself is in this field.
  • Official pathway (8): An officially named concentration, pathway or major inside the degree.
  • Broader degree with animation (14): A broader degree in which animation is a central, verified component of the official title or curriculum.

A single module is never counted as a pathway or as substantial curriculum. One program can appear under several specializations; it is still one listing.

Admissions and portfolios

Animation and VFX programs commonly ask for a portfolio of creative or technical work; some also ask for a showreel.

Requirements are recorded item by item on each program profile — required, optional, pathway-specific or explicitly not required. If a school does not publish its policy, we say so. Admissions and portfolio guide
