Georgia is a hub for animation in the film and entertainment industry, which is why the animation program at Augusta University has grown exponentially. It started off small but now has more than 100 students. Now, Augusta University is opening its doors to high school students to show them what the animation program is like. Students are going to step into another world with the Augusta University animation summer camp. “They’re going to get the pose the character, make it move, model the character and then they’re going to set up lights and go through this process called rendering to make it look really cool at the end of it,” said Animation Director A.B. Osborne. “They want to nerd out, and they want to figure out how to do that for a living. Then, they hear the word starving artists, but animation is a big multibillion-dollar industry. So, once they start to figure that out, they often find that this program is a great fit for them.” The program focuses on many preparing students for careers in many fields, not just film and entertainment.
