Quand Revient la Mousson Created by Benjamin Fournet, Benjamin Beal, Mikael Brosset, and Cynthia Guilpin, from the Aries campus.

Camera Obscura Created by Mathieu Buchalski, Thierry Onillon, and Jean-Michel Drechsler, from the Valenciennes campus. This short film has received a number of accolades and awards for its innovative animation.

Al Dente Created by Carlos Leon Ortiz, Mael Francois, Jean-Francois Barthelemy, from the Valenciennes campus. This engaging animated short has garnered attention at various film festivals.

Although young and still learning their trade, many student animators, upon graduation, are proving themselves worthy of recognition in this dynamic, growing industry. Today more so than ever, these budding artists are able to step out of the classroom and into this professional market, thanks to the educational efforts of art centers and colleges with dedicated 3D art and animation programs that, in addition to teaching the basics, provide students real-world experience.

One such school is Supinfocom in Valenciennes, France (with a campus in Aries). Here, students first must learn the fundamentals of art history as well as general information pertaining to the media arts. They also learn how to use industry-standard 3D tools, and the application of cinematic techniques and storytelling.
