Description

Create the next video game Nemesis by learning how to model 3D creatures” 

##IMAGE##

Modeling a human body in 3D is a job that requires precision and anatomical knowledge, but transferring that knowledge to fictional creatures requires a lot of skill and creativity. Each of these beings has special and complex characteristics, often having to design the skeleton and muscles from scratch.   

Thus, and taking into account the importance of this task, this Postgraduate Diploma has been designed, which will allow the student to create creatures from scratch, starting from different reference models such as the anatomical structure of animals. All the contents will be available in an online program, which greatly facilitates the study work of professionals who are currently working in other activities, but who are eager to start specializing in the sector.  

On the other hand, the didactic material of the program will allow to deepen in the development of a rig in Maya, to animate a 3D model, as well as to take the knowledge of ZBrush to Blender, a computer program dedicated to modeling, lighting, rendering and animating different graphic compositions.  

Chocobos, Pokémon or the mythical Spyro. Learn all the modeling secrets behind the main creatures of the video game world” 

This postgraduate diploma in 3D Creature Modeling contains the most complete and up-to-date program on the market. Its most notable features are:

  • The development of case studies presented by experts in 3D modeling
  • The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
  • Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
  • Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
  • Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
  • Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

It is imperative that you control creature modeling if you want to succeed in the video game industry” 

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this training program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.  

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training programmed to train in real situations.  

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.   

You will make your own models look immensely better thanks to the advanced techniques you will learn in this program”
