Short internship

3 months

During this 1st internship, students will understand the structure of a studio; who does what, who leads, how the teams are organised and how their members interact. They will also apply what they've learnt in class to the "real" world, and adjust their skills to the needs of the project. On-the-job learning is to be expected along with continuous practice. A monthly evaluation will help them discover their specialisation or area of interest; they will have to feed a blog on a weekly basis and submit a final internship report at the end of the 3 months.

Lab 3

Professional Game Design

Going further into their specialisations, students master their technical skills, building on previous years, and are introduced to the soft skills and production processes required by the industry, as well as upcoming technologies. Through projects that involve teamwork and strategic completion of cross-functional projects, students transform into industry ready game artists and designers.

Advanced 3D + Procedural generation + Pre-production + Production project management + Mediums & technologies + Artificial Intelligence + Storyboarding + Rigging/animation + UI UX + Art direction

Long internship

6 months

An intensive 6 month internship gives students a chance to take on greater responsibilities at their studio roles and carry out specialised work. They will participate in the making of one of more games and integrate into the dynamics of their teams. For the first time, they will play a key role in the game development process. Students will have to document their internship by maintaining a blog and submitting a final internship report.
