Description

In this exciting week-long 3D Printing & Game Design Camp, students will learn to create 3D models from both artistic and engineering perspectives while designing complete, shareable games. Students will learn what to consider in constructing models to produce the best-quality prints, observing a 3D Printer during each lesson to understand proper printing standards and processes.

This camp also introduces important game design concepts, teaching students about game mechanics, player experience, art, story, and scope. Through discussions, activities, and hands-on computer work, students will use their creativity and problem-solving skills to create fun, complete games from beginning to end.

Campers will start with hands-on activities that bridge physical creation and digital design, learning vital concepts in tangible ways. With our experienced instructors, students will develop their 3D modeling and game design skills in a fun, creative environment that encourages innovation and self-expression. By the end of camp, students will take home at least 2 printed models they designed, their own accounts to continue creating at home, and shareable games to play with friends and family.

Bring a snack, lunch and drink.
