Game Design

Vancouver is in the heart of a multi-billion dollar and growing game design industry. Studios behind some of today’s biggest video game franchises–Halo, Gears Of War, Minecraft, NHL, FIFA, NBA, and more–call Vancouver home.

Now, it’s your time to shape this industry. In the InFocus Game Design Course, you will develop skills in order to code, animate, illustrate, and fully develop video games, launching a career in one of the most influential media industries of today and the future.

Our unique, hands-on curriculum is currently undergoing approval by the BC Ministry Of Advanced Education, Skills, and Training. Applications will open soon. Join the waitlist so you don’t miss out!

No prior experience is needed to succeed in the Game Design Program. In just 8 months of guided mentorship you’ll build the fundamental skills needed, learn the art or game design, master the software, and create a dynamic portfolio including an original video game prototype.

Your mentors in the Game Design Program are all industry professionals currently working in the video game field. They bring experience from major studios including EA and Microsoft, mastery of the latest techniques, and industry connections which allows networking opportunities for students.

Interactive lessons build a foundation of coding, animation skills, storyboarding, and visual art techniques. Take that foundation to create your own game in Unreal Engine, the industry-standard game design software.

Alone or with a team, develop a playable game in the first semester. Learn coding and front-end interfaces to polish your game. Small class sizes provide focused, individualized training and plenty of one-on-one time with active, professional video game creators as your instructors.
