MODULE DESCRIPTION

Philosophy and History of Animation

This is an introductory module to the world of animation involving a comparative study of certain visual arts in different time periods and cultures. This includes the chronological progression of animation techniques and the evolving styles of artistic expression in this particular field. The focus is mainly on the history of American film animation from 1900 to the present. Students are introduced to significant artists who have influenced the process and direction of film animation. They will acquire an understanding of the basic terminology and mechanics of animation. This is complemented by the development of an appreciation for the aesthetic dimensions of film art, including animated cartoons as political propaganda, cartoons as social satire and cartoons as cultural mythology. Students will be given the opportunity to conduct research and express criticism in the areas of both film and television animation.

Secondly, it covers the philosophic basis of different genres of visual communication design and movements within visual communication design history, which will develop the student’s understanding of the rationales associated with artwork cre-ation. It will develop an ability to evaluate the appropriateness of different approaches to visual communication design and stimulate the development of a personal philosophy to artwork creation.

Topics covered in this respect include theories of contextualised communication, culturally appropriate visual communica-tion, customer market segmentation, target profiling and mapping media choice with a given target group profile determined by variables such as age, gender, cultural, literacy level, language preferences, as well as media preferences and visual/media literacy.


Statistical Methods

It will develop the student’s thinking about statistics and to create an understanding of its application in real work situations. This introduction to statistics aims to develop skills to recognise that all data contain levels of variation and choices, and the outcome of a situation is determined by the recognition of these choices and how our responses impact on business decisions. The student is furthermore introduced to the basic statistical application of Microsoft EXCEL in the application of statistical concepts.

The syllabus centres on the basic division of statistics namely descriptive and inductive statistics. Descriptive statistics implies the ability to assess the available or gathered data, order the data in a convenient and informative manner, in a graphical or numeric way, extract information from the sample and present the data to enable business decisions. After data has been correctly gathered, arranged and presented, they can be further processed in order to interpret them and make deductions. Techniques to interpret data and make further deductions enable management to formulate decisions are called inductive statistics or statistical inference. Inferential statistics apply methods to draw conclusions or inferences about characteristics of the population, based on the sample data
