PRESS RELEASE: September 20, 2021, MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA – CG Spectrum College of Digital Art & Animation is proud to be recognized as an Unreal Authorized Training Center, just two months after becoming the first online Unreal Academic Partner.
The school, which offers several online game development courses, recently launched an innovative realtime 3D technical art and virtual production course to meet demand for Unreal Engine-trained professionals.
"We are pleased to have CG Spectrum join our Unreal Authorized Training Center team. This group is an ideal partner because they bring a wealth of experience across several real-time verticals including game art, programming and a newly released virtual production curriculum. With an international reach, CG Spectrum is well-positioned to serve many of our communities around the world, and we are looking forward to seeing where else this new partnership may lead," said Jeff Peres, Unreal Engine Partnership Director, Epic Games.
CG Spectrum’s goal is to prepare filmmakers, game developers and other creators for a constantly evolving job market. To seize the opportunities in the real-time 3D and virtual production space, the school developed a Realtime 3D Technical Art and Virtual Production Course to help students learn to create film-quality cinematic shots using Unreal.
The specialized curriculum was created in partnership with Epic Games film, television, and virtual production track producer Deepak Chetty, real-time artist William Faucher, as well as animator and department head Simon Warwick.
“We're excited to again partner with Epic Games in ensuring our courses not only meet the highest standards of academic rigor but in also giving our corporate partners confidence that they're learning the latest techniques and production workflows to take back to their teams,” says Jeremy Chinn, CG Spectrum’s Chief Operations Officer.
