Acquire the best computer and technological skills to achieve the best texturing processes through this online degree" 

A brief tour through the History of Art would show the importance of texturing and its evolution in any artistic production. Bringing light, texture and a sense of superior realism is the achievement that any artist, designer or programmer of animation or video games would like to achieve for their projects. This process has acquired increasingly complex dimensions in the technological field, always in the search for a simpler process but with better and more professional results.  

This Professional master’s degree in 3D Texture Modeling has been designed so that the designer can specialize in the texturing process and in the most complete tools and software  to master this technique, such as Zbrush, Substance Painter or Unreal Engine. The content starts, in fact, focused on the use of 3DS Max, one of the most widely used programs in the design, animation and audiovisual production industry.  

Next, the educational plan goes through the texturing blocks, dedicated to explaining the types of textures and materials that are currently being used. The training delves into the process of preparing the model, from the creation of coordinates to the mapping and rendering of the model at the end, allowing to show the work with different sets of lights and a great image quality. For this purpose, the Marmoset Toolbag tool will be explored.

The student will have a module dedicated to exporting in Unreal Engine,  a development engine that allows to build an animation or simulation. Here, you will learn how to handle yourself with ease within the program, with special emphasis on lightmaps, the light maps that greatly influence the quality of the final work and the creation of frames. 

This Professional master’s degreeis taught entirely online, in order to favor the autonomous and involved learning of the students. Thanks to the monitoring and explanations of an excellent teaching staff, made up of professionals of the highest level, you will have the pedagogical resources and multimedia material always available on the virtual platform.
