"The program gave me access to advice from mentors who are industry professionals. 

My mentors helped me push my term III project to a level where, although it was the only complete environment project in my portfolio, it was enough to land multiple interviews with AAA companies and also a job. 

To add to that, one of my mentors helped connect me with numerous recruiters and other professionals in his contacts. This included the art director at Maverick Games, who connected with me for an interview after the referral."

"Switching from 2D animation to 3D character art, Vertex School’s 9-month Game Art Program was the best configuration I could’ve hoped for.

During the classes, I was taught the necessary tools to complete a full project, and the one on one sessions with industry mentors allowed me to pinpoint my weaknesses and further deepen my knowledge of both the softwares and techniques used.

Thanks to Vertex School and a recommendation from my mentor, Ashley Sparling, I’ve been hired by Ubisoft as a 3D Character Artist. I was not expecting such an awesome conclusion to the program."

"With the knowledge I gained and portfolio I made at Vertex, I got hired into the game industry! 
Prior to Vertex, I had very little software knowledge. Now I’m comfortable using Maya, Zbrush, Substance Designer, Painter, etc.

I really enjoy the community Vertex provides. People are always exchanging info and providing feedback - there is always someone willing to help you. I guarantee that if you are willing to push yourself, you will be able to get a lot out of the Game Arts Program.

With Vertex I felt that I was supported and part of the school community both during and after graduating. 

I'm super grateful that I joined Vertex!"
