3D Modelling and Visual Effects Production
Certificate of Achievement
Program Code: 11671
Campus: North
Length: 2 semesters
Humber's 3D Modelling and Visual Effects Production certificate program focuses on both the conceptual and the technical, as you learn to master visual techniques to bring ideas to life. You will develop skills in modelling, texturing and lighting, as well as in visual effects and compositing. We use 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.
This program is not eligible for Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP). It is eligible for Better Jobs Ontario funding. Further details and how to apply are found at Better Jobs Ontario.
