UPGRADE

A conference for high school students interested in the game and film industries

We’ve heard the requests for summer programs for high school students.

This has presented a unique challenge for us since our professors continue to work in the game and film industry during the summer.

So we decided to put together a one-day high school conference!  We’ve tapped our colleagues at various studios to come and speak.

Animation

Love bringing a character to life? 

Check out our animation program. Motion capture, animation fundamentals, rigging, we cover it all.

Programming for Games

Without programmers we wouldn’t have video games. 

If you like to think about systems and rule-sets, this track is for you. Make something that has a function.

Modeling

The track for those who like to make things.  This track doesn’t just focus on geometry. 

We also focus on: Modeling, Sculpting, Baking, Texturing, World Building, Lighting, Rendering and more…

Production Management

Producers are important to development teams. 

They structure the schedule, coordinate with multiple disciplines and act as support to enable artists, coders, and everyone involved in the studio.
