Video games have become one of the leading forms of artistic expression in the 21st century. Game development requires a combination of talents, hard work and passion. The Game – Art three-year advanced diploma is a rigorous program of study that focuses on the principles and techniques of video game art creation required to break into the industry.

Students will develop both 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional artistic abilities by learning concept art, sprite and pixel art, modelling, texturing, animation and level design. Taught by faculty with industry experience and mentored by local game industry leaders, students will develop games for commercial, educational and other purposes.

Students will have the unique opportunity to develop commercial quality games in a simulated video game studio environment, at times working with industry partners and game programmers. In the second year, students choose whether to specialize in game modelling or game animation.

What You’ll Learn

  • Analyze the differences in game genres in order to develop games that meet the needs of specific markets.
  • Analyze the history of video games to compare various approaches to game development.
  • Support the development of games by identifying and relating concepts from a range of industry roles – programming, design and art.
  • Contribute as an individual and a member of a game development team to the effective completion of a game development project.
  • Develop strategies for ongoing personal and professional development to enhance work performance in the games industry.
  • Perform all work in compliance with relevant statutes, regulations, legislation, industry standards and codes of ethics.

I enrolled in the Analytics for Business Decision Making course at George Brown College in 2021, hoping to gain the skills necessary to thrive in the rapidly growing field of data analytics. While the course provided a foundational understanding of data analysis and business decision-making, I found the content to be somewhat lacking in depth and relevance to the current job market.

The course covered basic concepts in data analytics, including data processing, statistical analysis, and data visualization. It also introduced tools like Excel and SQL, which are essential for any data analyst. However, the curriculum felt outdated and did not delve deeply into more advanced and industry-relevant tools and techniques such as Python, R, or machine learning algorithms, which are highly sought after by employers today.

While there were some hands-on projects, they were often simplistic and did not simulate real-world business problems effectively. The lack of exposure to complex, real-life datasets and scenarios meant that the practical skills gained were not useful at all.
