Presentation
Postgraduate in Motion Graphics: mastering the creation of moving images
Nothing captures the audience’s attention better than a moving image. That is why it is impossible to understand design today without the audiovisual dimension. Film credits, commercials, music videos, apps, websites, video games and social media are full of motion graphics.
But designing in motion is not the same as working with static images. In addition to knowing how to use specialized tools and software, it requires an understanding of narrative and audiovisual language in order to know how each technical decision responds to a specific creative intention.
The Postgraduate in Motion Graphics is designed to help you develop a comprehensive vision of motion design, from narrative structure to advanced post-production, including editing, animation, sound design and art direction. Throughout the program, you will learn to create animated pieces from a technical, narrative and creative perspective.
The aim of the Postgraduate in Motion Graphics is to enable you to become a professional capable of creating animated projects that convey memorable messages to the audience.
