4.00 Credits
In this course, the principles of animation are explored in greater depth as they apply to 3D. Students learn about the production cycle of animation while planning models for future animation. Kinematics, rigging, and facial animation processes are explored as students demonstrate walk cycles, express emotions, and synchronize sound to animations. Students also create short animations and integrate basic sound and video compositing software. This course includes reading, writing, and lab assignments. Prerequisites: DDN 220 and DDN 330.

This course is an introduction to Web programming, Web server technologies, HTTP/HTTPS servers, Web security, PHP and ASP.net, and Unix/Linux open-source-based applications.
-
4.00 Credits
This course explores the use of interactive Web tools, rich Internet applications, and interactive Web games. The integration of music, sound, video, and animation is considered in design. Students use object-oriented scripting language and standard Web tools to create dynamic Web sites.
-
4.00 Credits
This course focuses on advanced Web programming. Students work in a production environment resolving code issues, providing "work-arounds," and improving Web design. Prerequisite: DDN 430.
-
