Overview

The Animation and Illustration program at the State University of New York Fredonia states that while students may choose to concentrate in either Animation or Illustration, many students choose to incorporate both disciplines in their senior-level work.

The Fredonia Difference

The Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree requires intensive work in visual arts studios supported by a program of general education. Students complete rigorous, in‐depth courses in a preferred studio area and work to discover their own artistic voice with a high level of technical, conceptual, creative, and aesthetic development.

Experimentation and practice in various studio media foster a broad range of artistic knowledge that can be applied to art making. Fredonia has a competitive application process that requires the submission of an art portfolio. In the recently renovated Rockefeller Arts Center, studios are accessible 24/7 and there are individualized spaces for upper-level students.
