Media That Matters
The Practicum gives our students access to a hands-on experience with a non-profit organization working to make a difference. Based on the premise that media matters, the Practicum is designed to empower students to complete a real-world project, while developing a network and a portfolio that will serve them professionally.
CDIA's 3D Animation Practicum offers students the chance to work with a non-profit organization to create a project that will be used in the world. Under the direction of a faculty advisor, students work in small teams to complete all aspects of production. This opportunity allows the student to leave CDIA with a finished project on their reel, and experience the dynamics of a real-world production.
The Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University is committed to creating an environment where students use digital media to enrich the community. 3D Animation students have the opportunity to partner with organizations in Greater Boston and beyond.
