Learning outcomes

You will mainly get a basic understanding of the following topic:

  • 3D Modelling
  • Programming in and working with Game Engines (Unity)
  • Game Design
Planned learning activities and teaching methods

There will either be smaller practical tasks or a project (game) in groups. Introductions into Blender and Unity will be done together, not in groups. The course will be structured very spontaneous and adaptive:
Depending on where the interest lies, we can focus more or less on the topics polymodelling, sculpting, rigging, skinning and animation in the 3D field, and gameplay, vr, ar, game design, game industry and game development processes in the game engine field.
