With this Internship program you will achieve top quality videogame designs, following the guidelines of experienced specialists in the sector" 

The technological revolution has boosted the Gaming sector to such an extent that the professionals who design and create video games are in high demand. However, continuous program updates and the appearance of new design software oblige specialists to continually update their technical knowledge and perfect their creative skills.  

Faced with this reality, TECH has created this Video Game Design in Video Game Design , where the professional will enter a design company that stands out in the sector. This will allow you to obtain the most relevant and up-to-date information in this field and to deploy your full potential, together with experts in this sector.  

In this way, during 3 intensive weeks, you will learn about the most recent developments in terms of the software used for the creation of characters and scenes, as well as the main ins and outs involved in the design of high-quality titles. An excellent opportunity offered by this educational institution to all those specialists who wish to progress in a sector that in the last years has obtained wide development and business growth.  

A program where you will learn from the best to master the technique and software used for 3D modeling in video games" 

Students who take this Internship program in Video Game Design will spend 3 weeks in a leading company in the industry, where they will be guided by professionals specialized in design and with extensive experience in the sector. All this will provide the student with a learning experience very close to the reality of this area, where a renewed and up-to-date knowledge of design and all the techniques used by great designers in this field is increasingly required.

An opportunity for students who will be present in the company from Monday to Friday, in consecutive days of 8 hours a day, where they will be able to develop and exploit all their creative talent and demonstrate their skills in Video Game Design . An in-person stay, in which a TECH teacher will be helping you to achieve the objectives and obtain a quality education according to the requirements requested by the rest of the companies in the industry.

In this internship proposal, of a completely practical nature, the activities are aimed at the development and improvement of the skills necessary for the provision of Video Game Design services in which a high qualification is required, and which are oriented to the specific qualification for the exercise of the activity, in any company that is dedicated to the creation and development of video games. 

Throughout this program, students will develop a series of minimum hours in which they will be able to carry out activities directly related to Video Game Design . In this way, students will be able to work with 3D motion graphics, make use of the most common 3D graphic structures in digital media, use some of the most commonly used 3D modeling tools in the industry, or develop in a practical environment with the main video game engines.

A period that will be highly productive for the professionals who seek to fulfill their aspirations in the sector having made a stay in which they will be in direct contact with 
the tools they need to create their own projects or make the leap in the sector.  

The student will actively participate by performing activities and procedures related to each area of competence (learning to learn and learning to do), with the support and guidance of the teachers and other classmates to facilitate teamwork and multidisciplinary integration as transversal skills for the practice of Video Game Design (learning to be and learning to relate to others).

The procedures described below will be the basis of the practical part of the training and their implementation will be subject to the center’s own availability and workload, the proposed activities being the following: 

 Graphic and artistic expression  

• Texture and image compositing for proper graphical representation and motion programming
• Make use of the most common 3D graphic structures in digital media
• Enrich your personal Portfolio with new creations in real professional environments
• Animate certain elements in 2D environments, following the fundamental principles of animation.
• Work with the most common animation tools in video games in 2D designs
• Highlight the final work with proper posing and compositional analysis

 Art and 3D Design

• Create quality UV mapping with the right materials and retopology techniques
• Create inorganic and organic models of characters with different complexities
• Handle the main tools to create 3D artwork
• Perform a suitable export according to the engine on which you are going to work later on
• Work with Graphics in 3D movements in After Effects
• Create animations with alternative techniques such as loops, layer sequencing or free transformation
• Correctly export the work done to speed up and streamline the subsequent video game design processes
• Work with some of the most common 3D modeling tools
• Working with 3D texturing tools 
• Render texture mapping and UV mapping with optimization methodology
• Use scenes, Render Layers and Passes in the rendering job

Character design and animation 

• Design and animate 2D or 3D characters based on the most advanced modeling, lighting and color schemes
• Produce a character model going through all its stages, from conceptualization to texturing
• Prepare the model for subsequent smoother animation
• Simulate fluids, smoke or other non-rigid bodies efficiently and in real time
• Simulate clothing and hair appropriately based on the style of the character you are working on
• Refine motion captures to speed up animation and simulation work

Character Rigging 

• Perform proper rigging of the spine, arms, legs, and head
• Create poses that highlight the virtues of the characters you are working on
• Create a complete facial Rigging using Shape Keys
• Use the most accurate techniques to be able to perform quality character Rigging and in the shortest time
