Course overview
If you love games and are interested in how they work, this is the degree for you. A hands-on degree with an emphasis on the creative aspects of game production, in this Bachelor of Creative Arts (Game Production) you'll develop an in-depth knowledge of the games industry, the game design pipeline and the history, aesthetics and societal impact of games and gaming. Through the creation of assets for use in the game design pipeline with topics in game art, game narrative and game design, you'll develop the essential skills in game production using industry standard software and game engines. Games can be everything from simple casual mobile games through to amazing virtual reality worlds and as games have become more sophisticated, the art and worldbuilding behind them has also grown more complex. Artists, writers, sound designers and animators are now bringing us vast worlds with engaging storylines and every little piece needs to be created by someone. We want to help you be part of that team. You'll work alongside industry and collaborate with other students on real-world games and VFX projects, developing the highly sought after and transferrable skills that employers want. At the end of this degree, you'll be skilled in critical analysis and reflection of the game creation process, preparing you for a fulfilling career in this growing industry. This course aims to equip students with skills in asset production for interactive media, and more specifically games. Students will develop knowledge of the games industry, exploring the game design pipeline, investigate the societal impact of games and gaming, and working with industry standard software packages. The degree focusses on asset and game production, while students also have the opportunity to undertake programming, coding and visual effects as elective topics. On completion of this degree, students will have advanced knowledge of game engine implementation, game art production, and of the creative and practical processes of game production. Students will work collaboratively across creative arts cohorts, while engaging closely with industry as they develop game concepts and produce game assets in a production environment. The degree prepares graduates for employment in a wide range of careers in the game and digital industries nationally and internationally. Potential occupations may include game artist (2D and 3D), level designer, gameplay designer, writer for games, environment artist, game animator (2D or 3D) and project lead. Potential employers may include game developers, real-time interactive production studios, animation, simulation and digital media companies. On completion of this degree there is an opportunity to apply for a one-year Honours degree. For further information visit http://www.flinders.edu.au/honours.
