Calling all aspiring animators! Have you ever dreamed of bringing your own characters to life?
This summer, Augusta University's Animation Camp is your chance to turn your ideas into action! Spend a week learning the secrets of animation from fun and experienced instructors. Creative high school students that enjoy video games, movies and creating their own stories will have the opportunity to plan out a simple story, create a set with props, animate a character, and create a finished video that will premiere on the final day of the camp.
AS OF JUNE 27, 2024
The Summer Camps are fully booked for this Summer 2024, but we'll have more offerings in the Summer of 2025. If you have a student interested in learning more about our Animation program at Augusta University, they can also take a Friday Animation tour. Tours can be booked using the Book Tour button below.

This is intended for beginners - imaginative students who don't know where to start. Most creative high school students are doodling designs on paper or their iPad, but have never tried animating a character. This is intended to be a fun and safe environment for students to try out the 3D programs without worrying about making mistakes. It's all about learning and trying out new tools in the creative process!
Animation can be a very long process, but this camp is streamlined to keep things simple and fun! We'll have experienced animators in the room at all times to help and answer any questions.
