CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
valid for whole curriculum period:
In 3D Work workshop we concentrate on the actual everyday work one has to do to achieve anything in this very time-consuming art. Students will work five days on their idea for the 3D Animation- course s spring animation project.
Discussed abstract and concrete subjects: Pre-visualization (storyboarding, animatic, blocking), project planning (goal and schedule), the characteristics of animation in general, keyframing the character, camera work etc.
Only students who will do a spring animation project (in 3D Animation-course) can attend. This is basically of no use for anyone else, because you can get credits from this workshop only by starting to work on your project.
The main purpose of this workshop is to get student's animation projects started.

This workshop is ONLY FOR students in the current/ongoing 3D Animation course. Sign-up in Weboodi one week before the course starts.
The order of priority for admitting students to courses at Aalto ARTS 1.1.2018 onwards (approved by The Committee of Arts, Design and Architecture on 10.10.2017)
The order of priority is as follows:
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their major/programme and who have scheduled it for the current academic year in their personal study plan (HOPS);
- exchange students for whom the course is a part of his/her officially approved learning agreement and scheduled to be taken during the current semester;
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their major/programme and who have not completed it yet;
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her major s or programme s alternative studies and has been scheduled in the student's PSP (HOPS) for the current academic year
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her major s or programme s alternative studies and who have not completed the requisite number of credits for alternative studies yet;
- students for whom the course is compulsory for their minor;
- students, for whom the course is part of his/her minor subject s alternative studies and who have not completed the requisite number of credits for alternative studies yet;
- students who have applied for the course through a student mobility scheme (internal mobility within Aalto University, flexible study right (JOO) studies etc.);
- other students.
Courses that are intended to be multidisciplinary (e.g. UWAS courses) may apply an order of priority based on the learning outcomes of the course, while bearing in mind the university obligation of enabling students to complete their degrees within the normative duration of study set for the degree. The order of priority does not apply to courses organised by the Centre for General Studies or doctoral courses.
This decision on the order of priority does not influence the right of the teacher to define prerequisites for the course.
