60-222 Intermediate Studio: 3D Animation

10 units, Carnegie Mellon University

This course introduces students at the beginner to early intermediate level to practical 3D animation production through both traditional workflows and emerging digital tools. Students gain hands-on experience across the core stages of the 3D animation pipeline—including modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation—to develop the technical and conceptual foundations for digital storytelling in three-dimensional space. Grounded in established 3D animation practices, the course encourages students to experiment with AI-assisted tools and critically examine the role of these emerging technologies, while engaging with contemporary production strategies and workflows.
