One of the mandates of our program
is to create the next generation of independent
visual effects film artists.
There are upwards of 60 Visual-Effects companies
in the Greater-Vancouver region alone right now,
so there is a great number of possibilities for students coming into our program.
This year we're making in-roads into virtual reality, augmented reality,
and we have a full-fledged motion capture studio.
I think cross-collaboration is a huge advantage of our program.
You're not just learning visual effects,
you're learning all different aspects of film production.
We work closely with the Costuming department,
with the Acting for Stage and Screen Department
with the Motion Picture Arts students,
giving the students full access to explore all that digital media has to offer.
