Summary

Our MA Concept Art and Experience Design degree encapsulates the many roles that a Concept Artist / Designer can do in the entertainment industries. We focus on digital design for industries, such as games, animation and film, as well as real thematic environments in the areas of experiential design for branded events, theme parks, interiors and museums using a combination of 2D and 3D approaches.

As well as games and film design, you’ll learn design methodologies and artistic practice from the fields of industrial design, concept art for characters, props and environment design as well as experiential design for thematic real-world scenarios used in events, branded entertainment, theme parks, museums, installations, set design, VR visualisation and VAD (Virtual Art Department).

You'll develop your design skills and build upon core fundamentals of traditional and digital drawing, digital painting, design and digital art practice, allowing for pathways that utilise industry standard approaches. You'll elevate your designs, develop new approaches in 2D and 3D, empowering them to create concept art for their portfolios and projects. For the 2D Artist this course provides the platform to learn how to augment their existing workflows with new technologies in real-time engines and 3D visualisation.

This masters degree covers the fundamentals of drawing, design and 3D modelling as part of the concept art and design pipeline. Individual course modules include: Environment Design, Character and Costume and Thematic Entertainment Design, with a further two modules for students to pursue their own desired industry specialisms, supported by industry briefs and mentoring.
