3D Animation
The Animation program at Guthrie pioneered the use of 3D Software in Texas high schools and continues to set the standard for cinema-quality animation education. Students can take up to three years of 3D Animation and develop an extensive portfolio for college entrance, internships, or immediate employment.
3D Animation students become proficient in 3D modeling, product design, visualization, and 3D printing. Using industry standard programs including 3Ds Max, Maya, Unreal Engine, and Adobe After Effects, and more, our students can bring their creativity and imagination to life. Guthrie animation students also learn animation fundamentals, simulation basics, interactive media design (UI/UX), and technical drawing.
