Animation Society

Hi there!

We’re a society for animation fans and animators.

What We Do 

Every Thursday, we alternate between film viewings and workshops. 
Films include American blockbusters, Japanese classics and underground gems.
In the workshops, older students and industry professionals teach niche topics, including advanced colour theory, toon-shading techniques, or gaussian splats.
Each event is followed by a trip to Dylan’s

Every Tuesday, we host Dailies. Dailies are feedback session that are common in the VFX and animation industry. Anyone is welcome to submit anything for feedback. Other students are there to talk about your work and give suggestions or appreciation.

We also organise the animation jam where teams compete for cash prizes.

In May, BU will host BFX – one of the largest VFX and Animation conferences in the UK. The Animation Society is involved in organising and running the event.
