https://www.creativevillage.ne.jp/category/crv_event/154620/ *Deadline: November 21, 2024 (Thursday) 13:00 Game effects have become more realistic these days. Effects designers are required to create beautiful, sophisticated effects that recreate natural phenomena and physical movement to provide players with a sense of immersion. I’m sure there are many game development companies who want to train in-house designers with technical skills to increase their
competitiveness in the market, and designers who want to further improve their skills. Therefore, C&R will hold a talk session to think about training effects designers. The speakers will be Takahiro Akiyama (representative of Flypot LLC), who is an instructor at the Creative Academy run by C&R, and Kazuhito Takezawa (belongs to C&R’s VFXSTUDIO). Based on my experience in the training field, I will explain through a talk session how to train young designers, the skills they should learn, and points to pay attention to when hiring them. If you are having trouble training effects designers or are wondering what you should do to improve your skills, please join us. *A survey will be accepted at the time of application. Please let us know in advance if you have any problems or points to note when hiring. [1] How to provide feedback and quality supervision to young designers We will talk about how to effectively give feedback to young people and how to supervise them to improve quality. [2] What young designers should study now We’ll give you specifics on what young designers need to learn about current industry trends and required skill sets. [3] What should we focus on when hiring excellent designers? We will exchange opinions based on opinions from the field regarding key points for identifying designers with potential and trends common to designers who are growing. ▼Useful tools for 3D model creation Download free tools https://coyotec.booth.pm/ *You can download it for free from the details page of each tool. ▼C&R’s VFX team blog/X URL: https://vfx.crdg.jp/tech/ X: @CR_vfxstudio( https://x.com/CR_vfxstudio ) ▼VFX studio develops to improve the status of effects designers and expand recognition Official manga for effects designers “Flame, Smoke, Flying Kouka”
