Postgraduate certificate 2D Character Design and Animation

Facial expressions in video game characters are a powerful way of communicating emotions and moods. This allows players to connect emotionally with the protagonists, understanding both their feelings and motivations. It should be noted that these aspects make the characters more credible and human. This is especially important in games that seek to represent authentic worlds or characters. They also help to promote empathy among players, who therefore care more about the experiences of the characters in the video game. In view of this, TECH is implementing an advanced qualification that will deal in detail with the representation of facial features and expressions. In addition, it is based on a 100% online format for greater convenience.
