Presentation

CREATE PHYSICALLY BASED RENDERING WITH CUTTING-EDGE TECHNIQUES

The approach of video games as designed by this course at LISAA implies that the students learn about techniques that will allow them to create Physically Based Rendering (PBR) used in AAA video games productions.

Students further their skills in directing, development of realist shaders, software use (Substance, Maya...) and Unreal engine, combining 2-D and 3-D techniques for complex projects and optimising a production schedule. This approach leads to an in-depth knowledge of the entire pipeline for 3-D video game production.

A PROFESSIONAL ORIENTED TEACHING

Students work in projects, led by teachers who are active professionals. Jurys are also made up of professionals from parisians studios, who come looking for new talents in this programme. Master classes and conferences take place regularly in the school. The programme includes a 6-months internship from March from September.

A 2-YEAR MASTER'S PROGRAMME

The Video Game course takes place over two years following a bachelor-level qualification in Video Games from LISAA. It is also open to students from other digital animation schools. The course takes place in French except some classes taught in English.
