Game Art Escape Studios

Overview

Games skills can also be applied to other industries, including VFX, virtual production, architecture, real-time immersive media (theme parks and entertainment) or even the medical and engineering professions. The career perspectives are endless.

This  Game Art course at  Escape Studios  packs in all the content from our popular 21-week course with hands-on tuitions. It then takes you to the next level, with two major projects that will allow you to put everything you’ve learned into practice to create a killer portfolio. A collaborative group project will get you working with other students like a real studio, and an individual final project will be your chance to further specialise, improve your skills and finesse your portfolio, under the guidance of industry professionals and tutors.

You’ll create lifelong connections and start building your network. Our studio connections, industry-trained tutors, Talent Development Team support and Aftercare programme will set you in the right direction for a successful career in video games.
