Years 4 and 5 3D Animation & Immersion Program

Program
3D Animation & Immersion (Years 4 and 5)

Whether for TV series, cinema, video games or immersive experiences, today’s productions demand a level of specialization from future professionals that will enable them to meet increasingly high quality requirements. The last two years of the 3D Animation & Immersion training program enable students to perfect and deepen their knowledge. These years are punctuated by numerous professional experiences, as well as by the creation of a Demo Tape and Final Project enabling them to experiment with the most technical and innovative technologies. By mastering the entire production pipeline, students’ project management and management skills will be key to their integration into the professional world.

Teachings

The highlights of the
3D Animation & Immersion Program

During their 5th year of the program in 3D Animation & Immersion, students work on the production of an end-of-study project (animated film or video game). Beyond putting their learning into practice, carrying out this project allows them to work on the entire production pipeline and understand project management within studios. Students are supported throughout their 5th year thanks to personalized mentoring.
