Launch into Virtual Reality Design (Melbourne)

virtual reality but are unsure where to start? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

Our Virtual Reality Design Bootcamp will allow you to understand the fundamentals of what VR is, what it can do, the commercial application and the new limits for creativity and technology.

We’ve condensed key learning outcomes into an intensive 1-day bootcamp – equipping you with an integrated understanding of VR and its varied applications. Our courses are hands-on and high-energy with engaging and immersive challenges, equipment demonstrations and user experience best practice.

With your well-rounded, industry-relevant skill-set, you’ll be ready to start exploring the dynamic world of Virtual Reality Design!

We start off with an intro into Virtual Reality Design, free play on the machines so you can see what is out there and the differences between them, applications and examples of VR in the real world and industry, we take a look at a case study and the design of that, the tools and techniques used to create virtual worlds (Unity), and the limitations of VR design.
