Attend Online Courses at Gnomon School of Visual Effects

DESGINERS. For over fifteen years, the Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood, California has trained many of the world’s best digital artists currently working on blockbuster movies and games.

Starting January 7, 2013, they will launch an expansive new online training curriculum with more than 50 individual courses. The courses will be held in a 100% live interactive format and taught entirely by leading industry professionals via live screen-sharing technology and webcams.  Registration for these courses is now open.

Courses will cover a vast range of subjects within visual effects and game production, such as concept design, modeling, character animation, dynamic effects, compositing and matte painting.  The curriculum utilizes software including Maya, 3D Studio Max, Houdini, ZBrush, Mari, Nuke, Photoshop, Unreal and many more.

You will be able to develop personalized paths on any subject from beginner to advanced levels. To support the live lecture component of the courses, Gnomon has developed a brand new back-end that includes private forums, homework, handouts, grading, attendance records, and everything that students experience when taking courses at Gnomon’s Hollywood campus.

Over the past year, a team of us at Gnomon have been working hard to develop an amazing online experience,” says Alex Alvarez, founder and director of Gnomon. “We are proud of what we have put together, and I personally can’t wait to take a bunch of these classes myself! After almost 20 years in the industry, I remain humbled by how much more there is to learn.  Through this new resource I hope others will share my enthusiasm for what Gnomon has created.”

At its Hollywood campus, Gnomon offers full-time two and three-year programs on entertainment design and digital production, as well 100 individual extension courses. Called “The MIT of Visual Effects” by Fast Company magazine, Gnomon strives to offer students unprecedented exposure to visual effects and game production, and maintains an institutional placement rate of 97%.
