About

The 3D Modelling and Visual Effects Production programme from Humber Polytechnic focuses on both the conceptual and the technical, as you learn to master visual techniques to bring ideas to life. 

Visit programme website for more information

Overview

You will develop skills in modelling, texturing and lighting, as well as in visual effects, compositing and digital cinematography. We employ a teaching process and course structure that requires content created in one course to be used to complete assignments in other courses. This “pipeline” process mirrors that of industry, allowing students to make a seamless transition into a real production environment.

The 3D Modelling and Visual Effects Production programme from Humber Polytechnic is designed by artists for experienced traditional artists and/or anyone who is artistically and technically inclined and who want to either develop or transition their skillsets for employment in the 3D and visual effects industries. The faculty take their years of industry experience into the classroom, straight from the studio. Their collective experience and passion in the gaming, television and film industries is the driving force that ensures the programme meets the current and future needs of the industry.

Key facts

  • The 3D film industry has become a global multibillion-dollar business using the talents of modelers and visual effects specialists. This dynamic programme will prepare you to work for large or small production houses in the film, broadcast design, visual effects and gaming sectors. Besides the obvious need in the entertainment industry, the need for 3D content creators in other industries is growing every day. The fundamental skills learned in this course can be applied to any field that would require a 3D artist.
  • Humber 3D grads have found jobs at Ubisoft, M.A.R.S, Jam Filled, LucasArts, Soho VFX, Sinking Ship Entertainment, KeyFrame Digital, Mr. X, Frantic Films, and Snowball Studios, among others.

General requirements

Admission selection is based on the following three requirements:

  • Portfolio: To be eligible for admission, applicants must demonstrate their artistic/design interest, strong computer literacy, and solid knowledge of the Windows graphical interface by submitting a portfolio that includes 6-8 pieces of original creative work. This could include graphic designs, films, illustrations, sketches, and/or anything in the spectrum of 3D work. Demonstrating knowledge of either digital design software or a 3D computer animation program would be an asset. 

For two pieces of work, applicants are required to include a description, in 150 words, outlining the process, software used and the reasons behind creative choices. 

  • Canadian citizens or permanent residents with international education are required to provide a credential evaluation.
