BA Gráficos para Jogos

Part of Screen Yorkshire’s Connected Campus group, our three-year Graphics for Games program has been carefully designed to fulfill the needs of the contemporary gaming industry.

With a particular emphasis on the creative side of game design, you’ll be taught the core theories that underpin the discipline and use these to guide your practical work and, in turn, gain the vocational experience needed to start a career in this fast-growing industry.

Our industry-experienced team of academics (including Carlton Reeve and Peter Chapman) and visiting industry experts (such as Michael Ogden, Iki Ikram, and Ben Smith) will equip you with the knowledge you need to emerge as a confident, creative, and experienced graduate ready to embark on a stimulating career path.

You’ll gain a robust understanding of topics including:

• Game-level design and creation
• Digital and physical concept art
• 3d computer animation
• Observational drawing
• Digital motion capture
• Image production and manipulation

In your final year, you will undertake an individual studio project, where you can collaborate with students from other disciplines and showcase the skills you’ve developed throughout the course.

You’ll have regular access to state-of-the-art facilities like the six-camera Motion Capture Suite and technical equipment that you can use to put theory into practice and enhance your skill set. You can borrow equipment for your projects too.

The department has close links with several prominent organizations. This includes the resident Working Academy placement agency and Game Republic (the Yorkshire Games Industry Association), of which we are members. With access to such partners, you’ll be able to gain the insight and experience needed to successfully enter this competitive industry.
