Top Animation Programs in North Carolina

February 11, 2012

If you’re an aspiring animator, you probably already know that there are hundreds of animation schools across the U.S. Some are free standing, while others are part of a larger art school, technical school, or traditional college. Most of these schools are accredited and many definitely have what it takes to help you start your animation career. The question is, are some animation schools better than others? Bloggers, college ranking agencies, alums, and many students think so, which is why they often create lists of the “best” schools or the “top schools” in the nation.

Did you know that North Carolina is home to nearly half a dozen animation societies and possibly dozens of smaller, lesser-known groups? Animazement, AnimEgo, Carolina Otaku Uprising (COUP), DukAnime, and Nippon Anime Society are just a few popular animation groups in the state. North Carolina also has one of the most hospitable film offices in the country. In order to attract productions of all kinds (including animated productions) to the state, the North Carolina Film Office offers pluses such as a 25% film incentive, no corporate income tax on the production cap, and no application process. This encourages growth (including employment growth) in the industry here.
