Postgraduate Diploma in Professional Drawing for Video Games
Professional drawing for video games is a type of digital illustration that is used to create characters, environments and objects to be incorporated into games. Professional drawing for video games is important in game creation, as it allows game designers to visualize and design characters and environments in a digital format before creating the actual game. The process of developing professional drawing for video games is similar to that of traditional digital illustration, but with some variations due to the specific nature of games. It generally begins with a traditional sketch or pencil drawing, which is scanned and imported into a digital drawing software program, such as Photoshop, Clip Studio Paint or Procreate.
From here, designers create soften the lines and begin adding color, shadows and textures following the design of the character or scene. It is important to note that when drawing characters for video games, it is necessary to pay attention to details, such as weapon details or clothing, and make sure the character is easily recognizable in the context of the game. Once the drawing is completed, it can be used in game development using 3D modeling software. The drawing is imported into the 3D modeling software where it is converted into a three-dimensional model that can be manipulated and animated for the video game.
The goal of the program is to provide students with advanced knowledge in drawing and design for video games, as well as practical skills in the use of specialized software and tools.
