We offer Higher Education bachelors & diplomas in Film, 2D Animation, 3D Animation, Mobile Apps Development, Games Design and Games Programming which are designed to mirror the way these industries work. Our teachers are industry practitioners and we place a strong focus on creating opportunities for you to get your work recognised and network with key organisations in the business. We do this through internships, mentorships, master talk presentations, industry events, awards nights and our close affiliation with partners such as the APDG, Unreal Engine, Toon Boom, Wacom, Adobe, the Australian Computer Society and many more..

We have an internship program which is offered as an elective (subject to eligibility criteria) in all Bachelor programs and we regularly host first-class events and Master Talk presentations with some of the biggest names in the business - such as the Oscar-winning sound designers on Hacksaw Ridge to the Animation team behind Peter Rabbit. In our Bachelor programs, in your third year you will work with your peers to produce your final industry-ready showcase piece to be premiered at our .Motion graduation and awards event attended by a panel of industry representatives.
