Lifeway College is a boutique tertiary educator providing high quality, industry aligned training in Media, Christian Ministry and English. Lifeway College takes a holistic approach to education in line with our motto, For Success For Life.

Lifeway College’s Diploma in Advanced 3D Animation is the highest available level of specialist 3D Animation training in New Zealand. Located at New Zealand's largest 3D Animation worksite, students enjoy many benefits such as guest lecturers from the top of the industry.

The Diploma in Advanced 3D Animation is a comprehensive education for the production of computer graphics. Due to the broad scope of 3D, the first year provides foundational knowledge of drawing by hand, animation principles, story writing and character design which progresses to digital matte painting, compositing, editing and effects in moving footage. Students then learn all the aspects of 3D using Autodesk Maya and complete their final projects.

Year 2 continues teaching in-depth character development using pencil, paper and clay. Pixologic Zbrush is then used for digital sculpting of the characters. Students develop knowledge of an extensive toolset, Autodesk Maya Unlimited, including areas such as rigging, MEL, dynamics, rendering and lighting. Finally students characters are integrated into short movies which become student showreels.
