OUR STUDENTS LEARN THE SKILLS REQUIRED BY COMPANIES HIRING FOR CREATIVE TECH
POSITIONS. 

ANGELA JEONG

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!

After Graduating from Vertex: 3D Environment Artist at Liquid Development

ÉTIENNE CARDONA

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.

 After Graduating from Vertex: 3D Character Artist at Ubisoft

LEWIS HEWISON

 I recently finished the Game Art Program at Vertex and got a job in the
industry! I now work at Antimatter Games based in the UK. Prior to Vertex I
studied illustration for 3 years and used 3D applications for all of my work - I
was always drawn to concept art and still image but wanted a job in the game
industry though I didn't know how to approach it or what to specialize in.

I started looking online at tutorials but felt very lost. I started searching
around for online courses with mentorship from industry pros to further my
knowledge - I checked out Cliton Crumpler's course, CGMA, Think Tank, etc. I was
heavily drawn to Vertex due to their program's length, price and that it's split
into character and environment. What Ryan has built is great and I couldn't
recommend it more.

After Graduating from Vertex: Junior Environment Artist at Antimatter Games and
now 3D Environment Artist at Behaviour Interactive


STUDENT SUCCESS STORY

FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE TO AAA STUDIO

Lena Piech

"When I enrolled for the Game Art Program I knew nothing about the industry (I
wouldn’t have even considered myself a gamer or anything like that. I literally
knew nothing. The Witcher is possibly the only game I had played from start to
finish).

I got a job as a 3D Environment Artist at one of the Xbox studios sometime after
Term II of the program. I never got to finish Term III because I didn’t need to
since I had already gotten a job. After Term II I left the program and started
my new job!..." - Lena Piech

Prior to Vertex: Customer Service Rep

After Vertex: Environment Artist at Playground Games (Xbox Game Studios)

film/writing industry. Before graduating from the 30-week program, Sean secured
a job as an Asset Implementer at Epic Games!

I had made joining the Game Development Program. 

The way the program is designed is it literally checked all the boxes of the
job." -Sean Love

JUSTIN HEIN

"Vertex provides a community for new and growing artists to become who they want
to be. It's beyond just creating art. Vertex has helped me actualize what I want
to do as a person.

I started their program with only an interest in 3D and to complete a project
that looks accurate to what I imagined, but I thought I'd never be here.

After this project, I am confident that I'll continue creating for the rest of
my life. They've shown me how fun it is to put yourself out there as an artist
and take risks to create something you might not think others will like. I will
forever be grateful for what Vertex has given me."

ELLIOTT WANG

"The first step was committing to a transition from 2D to 3D for more work
opportunities. I looked up a bunch of bootcamps, and Vertex stood out to me with
its affordability and choice of mentors. I went through a short interview
process, and the rest is history.

As an online school, Vertex is flexible for people working part-time or
full-time simultaneously and for people all across the world.

Without guidance from Vertex, I wouldn’t know what I needed to know. I wouldn’t
be confident that what I was doing was ‘right’ or an industry standard."

MADELINE ROSA

"At Vertex School, I received help and support from day one. My mentor, Vlad
Vanzariuc, was very helpful and he made sure I learned the workflow and
techniques I will need in the gaming industry such as Trim sheets, and Modular
Environments kits.

My time at Vertex School has been an extraordinary and amazing learning
experience. When I first started looking for schools, I had no idea where I
would end up until I found Vertex.

I have learned so much and so many things I did not know before and for that I
am forever grateful. Being able to work and learn from industry experts and
having the opportunity to participate in school events is super helpful and
exciting for me."

PAST STUDENT

Andrew Baker

The education I got at Vertex School is what got me my current job with
PIXOMONDO which was always a company I dreamed to work at. I'm now living my
dream.

If I was to give an aspiring artist advice, I would say you need to be prolific,
not afraid to make bad art. You need experience. Your first 3D model will not be
something you put on your ArtStation, show off and everyone loves. Make 100
crappy models if that is what it takes to get your first portfolio-worthy one.
Don't get discouraged. Be prolific.

Prior to Vertex: Environment Artist at Booz Allen Hamilton

After Vertex: Unreal Generalist at PIXOMONDO
