Modelling Foundations
Topology, edge flow and clean geometry — the difference between a sculpture and a production asset.

Character Modelling
Sculpt someone worth animating.
Before a character can move, someone has to build them. This program covers digital sculpting, stylised character creation, and the unglamorous, indispensable craft of production topology — meshes a rigger thanks you for.

Digital Sculpting
Form, anatomy and gesture in ZBrush and Blender, from speed sculpts to refined characters.

Retopology & UVs
Animation-ready meshes with deformation-friendly loops, unwrapped for texturing without tears.
Texturing & Look Development
Substance 3D Painter and shader fundamentals — surfaces, materials and the final look of an asset.

How the year runs
Twelve months, one craft.
Whichever program you choose, the shape of the year is the same — because it is the shape apprenticeship has always had.
01Months 1–3
Foundations
Fundamentals, daily. Whatever your program, the first term builds the craft basics everything else stands on — with no prior experience assumed.
02Months 4–9
Specialisation
Deep in your discipline. Weekly briefs, weekly reviews, rising difficulty — the same feedback loop the studio's own work goes through.
03Months 10–12
The Studio Floor
Live briefs from real productions. You finish with a portfolio of work made to shipping standard — not classroom exercises.
