Course summary
The aim of this course is to develop your understanding of coders’ and game developers’ needs, while addressing the visual needs of game development. As a games artist, you can work in one of the largest and agile creative industries in the world. You have the opportunity to develop games art skills such as storytelling, narrative, sociology, spatial design, architecture to anatomy, and character/environment design. We teach you about industry practices in a simulated games studio environment, so you can gain a solid grounding in visualisation techniques, character, environment and concept design. This exciting course is developed in conjunction with games industry employers like Radiant Worlds and shows you the skillset you need to be a successful games artist.
Key Course BenefitsThis course offers you opportunities to work with animators and illustrators to develop your core skills in drawing, perspective and concept development. You will also be taught the trends and technical developments within the games industry. Our flexible approach enables you to individually develop your creative practice and portfolio towards a wide range of potential career paths. You have the opportunity to learn about virtual and augmented reality using HTC Vive/Oculus Rift and game engines such as Unreal Engine and Unity. There is the opportunity to take a placement (sandwich) or study abroad year (subject to additional costs).For further information please check the course page on the Coventry University website.
