Are you ready to use animation and comics to gain a strong foundation of the history, theory and production of storytelling? Watch the video! Students gain all of that, and more, through the Minor in Animation and Comics Storytelling in Media, administered by the School of Journalism.

With this minor, you'll learn how to create characters and environments that visually represent issues, events, narrative, instruction and history through comics and animation courses. You will also learn to use critical thinking as you study storytelling content, context, ethics and the cultural, global and historical impacts of these forms for multi-media platforms and audiences.

With this minor and several comics and animation courses under your belt, you'll have the skills necessary to research, create and produce digital, interactive and immersive 2D/3D animation, comics, graphic novels and cartoons.
