In our Environments 2 course students undergo a thorough exploration of the art and science behind creating immersive digital environments. Over the semester, they delved into the production process, gaining hands-on experience from initial blockout to final implementation. The course is organized around three major assignments: Archviz, Ruins, and a final exam.

We are also thrilled to announce Lara D’Adda, one of our students, featured in an article on 80Level. Showcasing a detailed walkthrough of Lara's Stylized Mountain Village project. Moreover, Lara is also featured in a second 80Level article, focusing on modeling assets for a dystopian 3D environment powered by Unreal Engine 5.

80Level stands as a widely respected online platform and community dedicated to computer graphics and game development. It serves as a hub for professionals, enthusiasts, and students engaged in diverse aspects of the 3D industry, game design, visual effects, animation, and virtual reality.
