MAAC announces a wonderful addition to its bouquet of career courses - Advanced Diploma in 3D Animation and Visual Effects. A course founded upon intensive research and feedback from the animation and visual effects industry, AD3D is the most advanced animation and visual effects course ever.
The course contents are as follows:
MODULE I - Pre Production
(2 months)
Introduction
From Story to Screenplay
Sketching and Illustration
Concept Art Design
Storyboarding for Production
Project
MODULE II - Computer Graphics Basics
(1 month)
Intro to Computer Graphics

MODULE III - Computer Animation 101 (5 months)- This module aims at introducing students to computer animation and its nuances. Students will learn modeling, shading, lighting and animation including character animation and effects animation using Autodesk Maya Unlimited. This module also includes a session on Realviz MMTrack for Maya, an automated matchmoving engine for Autodesk Maya which enables artists to extract camera animation and data from a live action video.
Computer Animation Basics and Workflows
Learning from Traditional Animation
Autodesk Maya - Modeling, Shading, Lighting, Animation, Dynamics [Including Cloth, Fluids and Fur]
Realviz MMTrack for Maya [Matchmoving]

MODULE IV - Digital Sculpting & Painting (1 month)
This module aims at introducing Pixologic ZBrush, a digital sculpting application being used by all major studios worldwide. Off late, digital sculpting using ZBrush has become a preferred production technique for constructing highly detailed characters and environments. ZBrush works with geometry from Autodesk Maya, 3ds max etc. for sculpting and detailing in addition to providing built-in tools for creating remarkable and highly detailed objects and characters.
MODULE VI - Non Linear Editing [NLE]
(1 month)
Editing Basics with Adobe Premiere
Non Linear Editing with Apple Final Cut Pro
MODULE VII - Visual Effects & Compositing (3 months) - One of the most important processes involved in realizing a 3D animated shot or a live action based visual effects shot is Compositing which involves layering multiple elements together to form a single composition or shot.
In this module, we introduce students to the art of compositing using Adobe AfterEffects. Once the students are comfortable with compositing basics, they’re taken through a comprehensive module in node based compositing for film and television using Eyeon Fusion, one of the most widely acclaimed high end and node based compositing application by Eyeon Software, Canada. This application has seen its use in major Hollywood productions such as The Matrix Revolutions, The Aviator, Sky Captain & The World of Tomorrow, Swordfish, X-Men and many more. Some of the features which set Fusion apart is its unique ability to work with 2D and 3D elements (geometry) and its industrial strength color correction tools and particle suite.
Following Eyeon Fusion, students will be oriented on Apple Shake based on the Apple Mac Pro workstations. Apple Shake has been a weapon of choice for many international productions owing to its strong node based architecture and a flexible workflow among other things.
