Bulletin Description of Course This intermediate-level course explores the creation and control of digital media by custom-created computer code.

Detailed Description This is an intermediate-level course focusing on creative expression through code for real-time and non-realtime applications. Python is a fast, powerful, free and increasingly ubiquitous scripting language. It has become the embedded scripting environment of choice for graphics applications such as Maya, Houdini, Motion Builder, while at the same time works as a stand-alone on virtually every platform from mobile devices to desktops.
