The major local animation studios such as WildBrain and Mondo Media hire both 2D and 3D animators. They create work for the web, for games, and for commercials. Work in L.A. for TV and web series are 2D. Game companies all over use mostly 3D animators. You can choose a 2D track or a 3D track. Students at C.E.A. learn traditional animation principles while becoming familiar with the current animation software.
Software makes things move.
Animation training makes the movement correct. The spine of the animation program is a set of core courses in production that students should begin as soon as possible when entering the program. The resulting projects are composited in Premiere and After Effects. We are creating a curriculum for 3D web animation, which will probably be Pulse 3D, to start. The program takes approximately 1 busy year.
