“I feel the proposed diploma has made a real attempt to be relevant to our industry. It's important for students to possess the proper balance of technical skill and aesthetic development as they need to have the ability to create as well as produce.”

Why choose DDA @SP?
Your own personal space
Every student will have his/ her own personal space which one can call it 'home' in the three years of study. The M.A.D. (Media-Art-Design) Studios is a new and fully-equipped set of production studios that come with a personal touch.
Chill out at the cosy corner; get messy when you are sculpting; engage in creative discussion with industry clients; there is a dedicated space for each of the activities in the studios.
Thorough and
specialized programme
The course covers the full spectrum of the animation process from conceptualizing to completion, yet allows you to develop your strength in one of the two main tracks: asset creation or character animation.
We will put you through a transforming experience to stretch your capabilities and unleash your potential.
Mentorship with
industry leaders
A core feature of the course is the opportunity to learn from the Masters of the trade, like Blue Sky Studios (creator of Rio and Ice Age), Remedy Entertainment (makers of the game Alan Wake), Lucasfilm, Infinite Frameworks, etc.
We organise workshops and master classes regularly; we also arrange overseas study trips to Japan, Korea, China, United States, etc. to enhance the skills of our students.
You will also be empowered to take up leadership roles in organizing various enrichment forums, seminars and community projects.
