This Games Design course is all about the art and design work related to video games, creating storyboard concepts and turning them into playable prototypes. Students will gain the skills to become a professional technical artist, as well as entrepreneurial skills to enable them to compete in this growing industry.
Industry-standard 3D and games engine software will help students develop essential skills including drawing, modelling, texturing and using the games engine. Students will also have access to University of Cumbria's motion capture software and VR headsets to allow them to develop professional-standard work in readiness for entering the games industry. The dedicated arts campus will allow students to mix with other creatives, allowing them to work on joint projects and develop their own network of creative practitioners.
