Elite Animation Academy

Elite Animation Academy is a private vocational art and animation school in Orlando founded by former Disney animators and industry professionals. The academy provides hands on training in drawing, character design, 2D and 3D animation, digital painting, storyboarding, video editing, and related digital arts. With both in studio and online options, Elite serves students of varying ages and skill levels who are serious about developing real world creative skills.

What sets Elite apart is its focus on professional mentorship and personalized instruction.

DAFA supports students who are preparing for advanced study, competitive portfolios, or future careers in the creative industries.

Through year round classes, specialized programs, and popular summer camps, Elite Animation Academy cultivates creativity, technical excellence, and confidence in every student. The academy is committed to helping emerging artists build strong portfolios, discover their unique artistic voice, and take meaningful steps toward careers in animation, illustration, and visual storytelling.
