NOT YOUR AVERAGE GAME DESIGN SCHOOL

LEARN FROM WORKING DESIGNERS.
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.
STUDY GAME DESIGN. GET HIRED.
InFocus Film School students maintain an 87% employment rate. Build a strong portfolio, a game design document, and an original game prototype to showcase your skills to employers. Networking events further ensure a leg up into Vancouver’s booming video game industry.
LEARN THE GAME DEV SKILLS TO SUCCEED
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.
