Consequently, a central aim of these programs is to prepare students to become filmmakers, film animators or film historians/critics who have a two-fold awareness: the artistic and cultural potential of the medium, and its history and traditions.

Cinema programs are oriented towards art and culture rather than industry and commerce. However, it should be noted that students are educated in the technical aspects of filmmaking as well as in financial and commercial factors. The programs attempt to strike a balance between the practical and the purely creative aspects of cinema, just as they seek to achieve a balance between social and aesthetic concerns.
Curriculum

Major in Film Animation — 60 credits
Minor in Film Animation — 30 credits

Designed to teach the full process of film animation including theory and practice, the program offers a thorough grounding in the art and technique of frame-by-frame filmmaking. Students are encouraged to develop their own creative potential and to select, from an ever widening range of animation methods, the style most suitable for their own personal expression. Students are also encouraged to complete studio art electives in order to develop their abilities in the areas of design, drawing and colouring.
