We have access to a number of 3D and Cinema 4D Sculpture Engines. These allow young artists to create characters, objects, environments in three dimensions like they are working with clay and paint them before moving into the animation pipeline. We train on the same solutions used by editors, filmmakers, motion designers, visual effects artists and creators of all types

Our mentors are expert at creating MetaHumans from an existing 3D mesh using the Mesh to MetaHuman workflows in our engines. The Plugins we use provide ways to create custom MetaHumans without using a MetaHuman Preset or MetaHuman Creator.

Design 3D characters with stylised casual sportswear and accessories perfect for RPG, Battle Royale, shooter, FPS type games

Polygonal modelling is a 3D modelling approach that utilises edges, vertices and faces to form models. Our modellers work with mentees to start with simple shapes and add details to build on them to create three-dimensional models, like the baseball hat show above. Polygons are useful for constructing many types of 3D models and are widely used in the development of 3D content for animated effects in film and interactive video games.

Lets face it, many game franchises and action movies need solid firepower. We can work with with our mentees to work on intricate sculpting and hard surface rendering of 3D obejcts such as weapons, or vehicles which can then be brought into games or movie scenes.

Are you a history and WWII enthusiast? Would you like to try making a WWII dive bomber? You could start a project including skeletal and static mesh parts including highly-detailed cockpit components, as well as multiple camouflages, decals, animations, and animation blueprints.

Are you interested in trains, would you like to make some good looking trains for your game? Trains can be made in fairly low-poly for the level of detail they have. We can work with you to create trains that have a lot of cool details to look at, even while zoomed-in, so they can be used in FPS games as a main object.

Because our software works with tens of millions of polygons in real-time, mentees can experience painting directly on the surface of the 3D model without first assigning a texture map or UV’s. This offers significant advantages compared to a standard workflow. The resolution of the texture map does not need to be decided in advance. They have the freedom to visualize, explore and create textures in 3D, and in real time. It is a deeply calming and satisfying activity to work in such intricate artistic detail.

We can help young people create environments from scratch. We also have created Terrain Prefabricated items that young people can use as the foundations of their game environment. These types of enviroments are currently used for leading video games and a large number of movies and shows to improve visuals and reduce production costs.

With the engines we use gaming and movies are becoming one big industry of art! The engines we used are behind environments created for scenes in the new such as the mandalorian from star wars.

Our mentors can work with you on Unreal Editor for Fortnite. This is a new way to design, develop, and publish content into Fortnite that takes advantage of the Unreal Editor’s development workflows and proven PC-based toolset.

Many younger adolescents spend a lot of time on Roblox. Many will build their own avatar from exiting items that are available. Our team can connect and support your child by helping them design their own items and even make them available in the Roblox store. Whilst we work with Roblox as a development studio this only provides training for building in Roblox which can be limiting. We therefore work with other open game development platforms which provides greater opportunity for growth.

Plenty of our kids are in love with Minecraft. Whilst we help our mentees improve their gaming skills and improve their knowledge of how to use in-game command blocks, we can take this one step further by helping kids to develop their own mods for Minecraft which their gaming buddies can experience too!

Embrace our industry leading drawing Tools, capable of supporting both vector and bitmap formats for unlimited creative freedom. Animate your gaming or movie assets using advanced puppets (cutout and rigging) or traditionally with frame by frame animation.

We can help you create characters using vector illustration, then build animation through adding limbs with deformers to create the joint flexibility you require for your creation!

Our drawing tools support creation of animation environment with scene timing, foregrounds/backgrounds providing the ability to then import characters that have been created and then use them within the scene

Through the use of digital sprite assets created by you or through using existing assets, we walk through the fundamentals of creating and publishing your very first 2D game!
