    What is a BA in Animation? This program of study can take many forms but typically focuses on working with the medium, form, and content of animated storytelling. Perfect for creative students interested in refining their art into usable skills, coursework can include topics such as composition, perspective, character gesture, stop-motion, and both cutout and hand-drawn design. Additionally, many programs include courses in the history of animation and cinema, as well as animation writing.
