Hi There,

From what I know of the course it does feature a lot of Animation, I believe those classes are taught using Adobe Aftereffects or Adobe Flash however the briefs are open allowing you to use anything that produces the right output.

I don't know all that much about the course however so I'm going to ask a friend of mine on the course for more information for you.

I'd say someone who's passionate about traditional graphic design should think twice before choosing this course.
You have to be interested in animation to appreciate it!

She's 3rd year so your modules will be building up to hers but 2 use Adobe software (Flash and/or others), one is up to you but Flash would be suitable, one is pre-dominantly assessed via essays.
