Interested in Game Design? Have a passion for wanting to create and foster fun interactive experiences, be it for entertainment, education or advertising?
Friends of Design wants YOU to get involved. Join us in building a strong, local game design community through your input. Give us your input, endorse us or even give us your creative staff to train.
Friends of Design Design – Academy of Digital Arts is a buzzing Digital Design School in the centre of Cape Town offering full time, part time and corporate courses to creatives who wish to get an education in the industry, amp up their skills or simply follow their creative passion.
Recently, we have added Game Production to our extensive list of courses, the very first of its kind in South Africa. Offered on a Full Time or Part Time basis, and developed by experienced trainers and industry professionals, the courses facilitate a wide range of skills so that students can graduate with confidence that they are marketable and employable, be it as a Concept Artist, 3D animator, Level Designer or Game Designer among others.
The Game Industry is an industry that has surpassed the movie and music industry in terms of generating revenue. Game Production is gaining recognition as a serious industry worldwide and more and more companies are hopping on the bandwagon, learning to deliver content to consumers that is entertaining, educational, interactive and fun. In addition, it is not as expensive or as complicated as you may think, Game Production is like any other technology – with a bit of education and some practice, your imagination is the only limit.
We can say so much more about this course, but, in essence, we rerally want to work with you. We need mentors, industry speakers and extra lecturers, enthusiasts and potential employers. With your input, we are confident we can bring Game Design Technology to South Africa in a big way, cultivating game designers for you to employ ultimately, with relevant and up to date skills.
If this sounds like something you would like to get involved, we want to hear from you!
