Steve Bodle"This is the second time I've done a 3D animation course but this time was 99% better!

"I have learnt so much over the last two years and feel that the course has pushed me in the right direction for my career.

"Being honest I joined the course thinking we would be playing games in a really relaxed environment, but the pressure soon hit me when the deadlines approached. There was so much more work than I expected. You DO have to have a passion for games and you must be 100% dedicated to the course otherwise you shouldn't even think about joining.

"This course has showed me a wide variety of job opportunities available in the games industry, ranging from modellers, level designers, animators, texture artists, concept artists and many more. The lecturers are all very friendly and come from game industry backgrounds themselves, leaving you feeling comfortable when asking for help. I was surprised at how enthusiastic the lecturers were at pushing you to be the best and they really do want you to succeed. Bedroom

"After my second year, I attended work experience with Lionhead as arranged by Adam Barton (Course Leader) and saw the competition in the real world.

"Everyone's work was top notch and they had NO time for anyone but the best.

"It was an amazing experience, which introduced me to lots of great people who have worked on titles such as Dungeon Keeper, Theme Park World, Black and White and The Movies.

"I'm currently building a more professional portfolio of my work in both quality and presentation and continually learn something new every day. The University provides great facilities and they will tend to your needs in good time. It also provides an excellent working atmosphere.

"Definitely the best course I have attended in my life. The future of the games industry starts here..."
