Unit 2: R096
Animation – Coursework (NEA). This unit is worth a total of 75 marks. It builds on the previous unit to design and create digital animation with sound and makes up 35% of your total mark.
Unit 3: R093

Learners will attend weekly live lessons in year 1, where they will complete unit R094 and cover the majority of the topic learning for unit R096 as a set of recorded and practical lessons. In year 2, learners will attend three full day online workshops where coursework (NEA) will be completed under supervision. After this, a further 21 weekly live lessons will help you study for the final summer exam in June of year 2.
What Can I Do Next?
As the OCR Nationals are formally recognised as GCSE equivalent qualifications by the JCQ, most colleges will accept these as part of your college application.
Students may go on to A Level Media Studies, Apprenticeships in Digital Media, Cambridge Technicals in IT or Digital Media, or UAL Level 3 Games Design.
