Games Art

If you have ever played a video game and been drawn in by the immersiveness of the environment art or marvelled at the imagination of the characters or creatures, the BA (Hons) Games Art course may be for you. Teaching you on industry-standard hardware and software, this course will advance your creative and artistic skills with opportunities to work collaboratively with game designers, animators and VFX artists to create Blueprint games. Working alone, in teams or in industry focused workshops, you’ll develop the digital toolset, creative invention, and contextual knowledge to bring your visual imagination to life. You’ll graduate with an industry-ready reel demonstrating your invention and artistic prowess.

Graduates will be prepared for a broad range of careers in games art. This could include roles such as character artist, 3D modeller, environment artist, concept artist, storyboard artist and 3D LookDev artist.
