Computer Graphics and Animation staff provide the campus community multimedia visualization for education and presentations. We offer full-service animation and effects for concepts that often cannot be videotaped, such as three-dimensional buildings, scientific and engineering visualizations, architectural renderings, and forensic comparison studies. We also create multimedia components such as digital video, audio and learning objects.
