Degrees
Bachelor of Fine Arts
2-D animation continues to be an expanding and popular medium. If you select the two-dimensional major you’ll use traditional drawing skills to create perspective and character, with the computer playing a secondary production role. You’ll develop your technical skills through life drawing, composition, and perspective courses -- studying proportion, line of action, structure, and basic anatomy. Then you’ll move on to skills specific to animation – areas such as character design, clean-up, doping, modeling, slugging, and storyboarding.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
The three-dimensional animation major merges the creative process with technology driven skills. You will first gain mastery in life drawing, concept drawing, composition, and character design. Then you'll deal more extensively with modeling, texturing and lighting in a 3-D environment with the use of advanced software like PhotoShop, SoftImage, Alias/Wavefront, Maya, and others. You may then want to push the boundaries of your creativity by exploring the field of game design. Or perhaps you’ll choose to dig deeper into the ideas of compositing and scripting.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
The strength of our program lies in helping you develop as a fine artist. During the first two years you will explore and refine your creative vision and technique within the fields of painting, illustration or sculpture. Even though students ultimately specialize in one area, RMCAD’s entire community is open for you to explore. Observation time in real classrooms is a routine part of many classes. During your senior year you’ll complete a student teaching internship. By teaching and learning alongside a veteran teacher in a Denver area school, techniques from your classes will be put to real-world use.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
We won't just teach you to draw, paint or sculpt. By the time you graduate you will have already become a full participant in the art world. As a Fine Arts major you will work one-on-one with a mentor to create a program of study tailored just for you. No two Fine Arts students take the same path through our program. Each Fine Arts major chooses Painting + Drawing, Sculpture or Photography + Video Art as an area of specialization.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Game art is one of the fastest growing industries today and the demand for qualified designers grows with it. Our Game Art program blends the artistic and technical skills you’ll need to become the kind of creative thinker and problem solver the game art industry is seeking. Our program educates game artists to be original thinkers and problem solvers, able to integrate history, culture and art into a variety of electronic applications. We combine core studio courses (drawing, design and sculpture) with liberal studies courses (math, writing, physics, art history, social and behavioral sciences and humanities) to give you a strong foundation and a cultural and historical view of the world.
Good design makes life better, easier, more fun. As a Graphic Design major you'll study the psychology that makes great design, well, great. We'll also show you how to take this ability and use it to create things that fit: people's minds, bodies and needs. And you will learn how to create things that connect: identity systems, printed materials, product packaging, posters -- experiences. Complex projects are introduced early on so that you can understand what’s needed to finish them both by yourself and as part of a creative team. Deadlines and budgets are developed so you can learn how real projects are managed from start to finish. The design program at many schools focuses primarily on software training. Our Graphic Design Department combines leading technology with a classical grounding in artistic problem solving, typography, communication strategy, and behavioral science. We also provide hands on experience with established design professionals, internships, and international design organizations.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Successful illustrators are masters at drawing and painting. In the first two years of our program you will focus on perfecting your fine arts skills: observational drawing, figure painting, life drawing, still life painting, landscape painting, the study of human anatomy and more. While you’re developing your technical expertise, our instructors will challenge you to learn how to simplify and focus the meaning behind your images. Computer aided drawing has made a significant impact on the illustration industry. As your training progresses you will learn about and use illustration software and techniques. And along the way you’ll discover the computer’s place in the creative process. You will graduate with a world class portfolio of work and a network of personal and professional contacts. Plus the ability to portray virtually any concept as a compelling image.
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Interior designers shape human experience and enhance quality of life by creating environments that are sustainable, meaningful, innovative, and functional. RMCAD's interior design graduates create spaces that are as aesthetically pleasing as they are healthy and resource efficient. The BFA in interior design is a first-professional degree that provides students with the educational qualifications to enter the design profession and gain the necessary experience to successfully complete the NCIDQ examination. Interior design is both an art and a science. At RMCAD, we approach it as an extension of the arts while being grounded in the social and natural sciences of psychology, sociology, anthropology, ecology, and biology. When you graduate from our program, you will be prepared to work as skilled, ethical, environmentally responsible professional designers committed to improving the health, safety and welfare of the public while embracing your own vision and creativity. RMCAD offers a unique program of study through our Green Design Area of Emphasis. The Green Design Area of Emphasis provides an in-depth exploration of the methods, processes and principles of green design and sustainability.
