Collaborative Projects


Students in Commercial Arts/Advertising Design and 3D Computer Animation at Hunterdon County Polytech completed collaborative projects over the last 8 weeks with surrounding high schools. Students teamed up with academic classes at Hunterdon Central, North, Voorhees, and Del Val to create projects showing the connection between academics and the arts. Polytech students used the research, input, and concepts of academic students to create art projects and then presented them back to the students for review. Student Krystina Galvez created a 2D animation of South American birds for her CP Biology class.
