TRAINING SPOTLIGHT This month: Escape Studios
London-based Escape Studios is an academy that specialises in training students in computer graphics who are looking to break into games, film, TV and commercials. Having also just opened an LA
studio, pupils can study through a full- time intensive course that lasts over 12-to-18 weeks, such as Visual Effects Production, which teaches students elements in VFX including polygon modelling, texture mapping, and advanced lighting and texturing. Each of these classes consist of no
more than 12 students taught by industry veterans. “As well as professional tutors who
have over ten years experience, we have training assistants who help out in the classrooms, and an interactive, community driven online learning system that students get access to during and after their course,” says Escape Studios training sales director Paul Wilkes. “It enables them to interact with their classmates, the Escape Studios communities at large and their tutors, but crucially also revisit and revise the lessons that they have learned in class.”
Epic Students are also able study part-
time for 20-to-30 weeks, following the same curriculum as their full-time counterparts. These courses, Wilkes says, are aimed at professionals looking to secure better jobs or seeking to re-train.
Our courses are constantly being
updated to ensure what we are teaching is relevant to the
industry. Paul Wilkes, Escape Studios
As well as this, Escape runs online
mentored courses delivered through its online learning service, and takes pupils just under a year to complete. Wilkes says this is designed for “perfect artists” who want to train whilst still in work and to those who can’t reach the academy in London.
