Business & Technology: Video Game Design and Development

Hours to Complete:
This online course offered through Gatlin Education requires 500 hours to complete.

General information:
The most important, but least emphasized as a career in the video game industry, is game play, or what makes the game compelling and entertaining. This program prepares you to move from being a video game programmer, a game artist, or animator to being the influential leader of the game designing processes. This program is the most up-to-date, tightly focused method of driving your career in video gaming to the next level. You will be exposed to the entire game development process, from brainstorming the ideas, to establishing the focus, to writing the storytelling, to documenting the design. Further, you will learn more advanced 3D graphics programming techniques, including mesh optimizations and hierarchical animation techniques, the use of level of detail (LOD) algorithms to improve application performance by reducing polygon counts in distant objects, skeletal animation systems for realistic character animation, and more.

Cost: $2,705 Fee is due in full before beginning this course.
