While the research profile should align with the film and media program’s existing focus on the media industries (video game design, 3D animation, film/video production, and manga),it may also expand upon it through interdisciplinary research with other fields, including industrial design. For example, the candidate’s research profile could center on narrative animation production for entertainment, documentary or experimental animation, animation for industry and science communication, or a combination of research interests.
