| Alex Williams at Bucks New University |
For our new animation students starting with us in September, there is a good deal of information to take on board, including who does what at Bucks.
There are a number of people involved in delivering our MA - the first online MA in animation in the world.
Below is a brief guide to help our new cohort of students figure out who's who, who does what, and how to get in touch with the key people whose job it is to help our students get excellent results.
Alexander Williams – Animation Lead I helped to develop the online MA back in 2014, and helped to steer it through the validation process. The MA launched in September 2015, and grew out of a partnership between Bucks New University and my online school Animation Apprentice, founded in 2012.
I oversee the practical day-to-day delivery of and grading of the practical, animation element of the course.
All our students get a login to the main site at Animation Apprentice, and access to hundreds of video tutorials.
