The series of workshops begin Monday May 22nd, with each running from Monday-Friday and with the support of the BAI. Industry professionals will tutor throughout, with specialist training in key areas of animation production.

They are designed to enable graduates from animation, games, VFX and other related courses to better attain a job with Boulder Media or another animation studio, and to add to a portfolio of work each week.
