About the course
Students get an introduction to skills necessary in producing assets and characters for a game environment. These skills include 3D modelling, texturing and lighting. Students will also optimise their assets for importing into the gaming engine and apply basic game rules to a first person game prototype. Skills learnt during this course give the students a sneak peak at the skills needed within the animation and gaming developing industries.
