Overview
The Game Art curriculum is designed to develop artists well versed in 3-D asset creation for interactive 3-D. With a focus on 3-D content for games, simulation, XR, and even film and television, you will work your way through project-based classes that follow a clear, dynamic curriculum structure using the latest techniques and tools. Our courses will help you gain the skills necessary to move and improve content through the production pipeline. Each specialized class is based on the same workflow processes found at professional game studios and covers such core concepts as animation, modeling, lighting, environment art, and material and texture creation. Supporting these industry-specific foundations are classes focusing on the traditional art foundations of interactive 3-D as well as courses focusing on career exploration, communication skills, and how to prepare for the gaming industry.
