Creative Arts (Games Art) Foundation Degree FD

The Creative Arts (Games Art) Foundation Degree is a practical, creative course designed for students who want to develop the visual and technical skills needed to create assets, environments and worlds for games and interactive media.<br/><br/>At Level 4, you’ll build strong foundations in game art and visual design, learning how to create 3D assets and environments that work within real-time engines and production pipelines. You’ll explore form, texture, scale and style while developing confidence with industry-standard tools used in contemporary games art.<br/><br/>At Level 5, you’ll refine your technical and creative abilities, focusing on advanced 3D modelling, sculpting and worldbuilding. You’ll work on more complex projects, creating detailed environments and game-ready assets while developing an understanding of how visual storytelling and design decisions shape player experience.<br/><br/>The course concludes with a Final Major Project, where you’ll bring together your skills to produce a substantial piece of games design work. Throughout the programme, learning is project-based and closely aligned with industry practice, preparing you for progression into further study or entry-level roles within the games and creative industries<br/><br/>Level 4 Modules:<br/>Foundations of Game Art & Visual Design<br/>Introduction to 3D Game Art<br/>Environment, Set & Prop Creation<br/><br/>Level 5 Modules:<br/>Advanced 3D Modelling: Sculpting<br/>Environment Art & Worldbuilding<br/>Final Major Project<br/><br/>Important Links:<br/><br/>Click HERE for the programme specification.<br/>For a full list of the University Centre’s regulations and policies please click HERE.<br/>Click HERE for The Open University Regulations for Validated Awards.<br/>Click HERE for the University Centre Terms & Conditions.
