3D Animation Summer Camps For Kids

Learn How to Make 3D Animation Content at NYFA

NYFA’s 3D animation camp for kids introduces the next generation of visual artists to the craft of character animation. In these hands-on programs, students aged 10-13 are fully engaged in the world of animation while learning the skills to bring their own stories to life. Using Disney’s 12 principles of animation as a starting point, our students use 3D Maya, the industry-standard software for today’s modeling and animation, to apply these principles to their work. NYFA currently offers in-person, on-campus summer camps and weekend camps. We also offer online programs on a seasonal basis.
