By knowing the proportions of the human body, you will be able to create realistic video game characters"  

Knowing how to model human characters in 3D is essential for programmers dedicated to the world of video games. This requires knowing what movements and poses a person performs in a given situation (swinging a sword, running, jumping, etc.) and how light and shadow affect each case. In addition, another component is added: the representativeness of the character.

Creating an individual from scratch is not the same as recreating him or her from a specific actor.

This is why large companies have become so selective when it comes to finding the right programmer. You must be able to demonstrate all of the above, as well as possess the necessary skills to work with different software, such as Maya or Mari.

Consequently, this postgraduate diploma has been developed to meet the needs of students who wish to specialize in human figure modeling. Differentiating itself from the rest, by allowing a direct qualification (without final work) and an online modality, breaking geographical barriers, accessing the contents from anywhere in the world and at any time of the day or night.
In short, a qualification that will help students to improve their presence in the profession. It will also allow them to begin a new career path, focusing their efforts on becoming independent.
