Game Art - courses, degrees and events

Why should I get into Games?

The games industry is one of the most creative, diverse and exciting industries for a digital artist to work in today. As a Games Artist you could be creating stunning worlds, including VR and AR experiences, and characters or props, in styles ranging from the realistic to cartoony or anywhere in-between. You’ll get a great understanding of the games production pipeline and the cross over with 3D and animation workflows. As an Unreal Engine Authorized Training Center, we also run Unreal Engine training courses to help you up your game in this popular software.
