AEC in Video Game 3D Modeling

Blended e-learning

• Distance learning combining self-study at your own pace (asynchronous) and guided sessions with a live tutor (synchronous)

The 3D Video Game Modeling program will teach you the skills needed to design and develop a game’s 3D weapons and props, locations, and characters. You will also be able to create computer-generated images and 3D renderings, along with the appropriate lighting and textures. By the end of this program, you will know how to design an entire video game level.

This program leads to an Attestation of College Studies (AEC).
