Introducing at Daemen College: The International Center for Excellence in Animation.
The Center will house Daemen's Academic Program in Animation, an industry presence with IBC Digital, and maintain international partnerships with Canada, Mexico, and Asia.
Daemen's BFA in Animation will provide students with much more than a technical knowledge of Animation. Students will gain a strong foundation in the Fine Arts to support their investigation of story, action, and visual effects.
The partnership between Daemen and IBC Digital at the ICEA will allow for professional experiences before graduation. This three-dimensional animation company will provide students with a professional model, and give them access to other industry professionals. In addition to IBC Digital, Daemen's industry partners include Toonboom and Bluearc.
In 2010 Daemen signed an agreement with the Toronto Animation School Max the Mutt. Academic programs in China, Singapore and Mexico will also provide the opportunity for international exchange.
