Course Description

Escape Visual Effects covers the Visual FX pipeline used in most major post production facilities around the world in a 6 week course, immersing you in all the key areas.

The course culminates in a project week when you'll have to draw on all of the knowledge you’ve acquired to produce an integrated CG and live-action shot. This final shot will be to the standard and quality required by any high-end Visual Effects facility.

By encompassing the theory of the whole production pipeline, from camera to final delivery, you’ll learn how certain factors influence the post production process.

This course was developed by our very own Training Development Director Lee Danskin. He's been awarded the title of Autodesk Maya Master and has been working in Visual Effects for the last 16 years.
