SPECIALISE IN TECH ART FROM THE FIRST YEAR

Students choose a specialisation from the first year of the Bachelor's degree. The Tech Art specialisation focuses on creative direction and the design of 3-D environments. The objective is to master all elements required to design a 3-D environment, from the original idea to 3-D modelling, right up to integration onto the market's game engines (Unity 3D or Unreal Engine 4). The student is the creative director of the game. Graduates will be able to apply for roles as 3-D Environment Artists (creation of 3-D scenery, texturing and integration), FX Artists (creation and mastery of visual effects in a game), 2-D Concept Artists (creation of 2-D environments) or Tech Artists (mastering of the entire production pipeline).
