Autodesk Animation Academy
“The Autodesk Animation Academy program is easy to understand, offers measurable objectives for student evaluation, and fulfills my school district’s requirements for increased academic integration. My students are reinforcing their knowledge of core subject areas, while at the same time learning valuable career skills. They are taken through the entire process of creating an animated project – ultimately creating a finished piece that can be taken home or displayed at school.” —Pat Gombarcik, ACI Department Coordinator, Arts & Communications Academy
