Description

Videogame Art is making everything you see in a video game. From making entire cities with incredible views, magical vehicles full of detail or even super powerful weapons to destroy your enemies. It is a highly creative discipline that combines artistic elements with technical knowledge that is used in video games but much of the knowledge that we see is applicable to other industries such as cinema, commercials, board games, etc., and can be seen in projects such as Fortnite, Last of Us, the Witcher, etc.

In our training we will teach you everything you need to enter the Professional Industry. What makes our training special is that we apply a unique methodology that we call "Production Environment Training", which implies that you will learn the same techniques that Studios and Producers use in their projects quickly and directly. You will learn both hard skills and soft skills, which will allow you to train as a comprehensive professional, both in the technical and artistic area as well as in ethical and human values.
