The EXPERTS platform continues to expand its range of continuing education courses, offering four new courses this fall focused on programming and design.
From TouchDesigner to spatial computing, augmented reality, and systematic video game design, participants will benefit from the teachings of four experts to enrich their skills, in collaboration with the NAD-UQAC School and the University of Quebec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT).
Launched by SYNTHÈSE in 2020, the EXPERTS online course platform already offers nearly 60 courses in the fields of 2D-3D creation, management, design, and programming. Tailored to meet the evolving needs of the industry, these courses are designed for professionals and recent graduates working in video games, visual effects, animation, and digital experiences in Quebec.
4 new courses to discover
1. Python in TouchDesigner
Presented by Vincent Brault, with the NAD-UQAC School
This training course offers you an in-depth immersion into the world of TouchDesigner. Recognized as a powerful and intuitive platform, TouchDesigner is the playground for artists seeking to create generative, interactive, and performative visuals through visual node-based programming.
Beyond the fundamentals, Vincent Brault, who works as a trainer at the SAT, will guide you through the integration of Python into the TouchDesigner environment. Mastering this programming language allows you to develop and design complex and more powerful interactive applications, such as the implementation of preconfiguration systems.
2. Build your data warehouse and process your video game analytics data (part 1)
Presented by Louis-Marius Gendreau, with UQAT
Optimize your game, increase playability and player retention, master your advertising cost performance, and much more, thanks to a data warehouse built quickly and at low cost!
Learn how to build a data warehouse capable of processing your video game analytics with Louis-Marius Gendreau, founder of App Marketing Data. At the heart of this first theoretical component, this training will help you understand the key concepts for planning and structuring your warehouse, as well as explore the best tools and features for building and evolving it through demos and concrete applications. Stay tuned, the second practical component is coming soon!
3. Spatial computing and augmented reality (design and programming)
Presented by Bob-Antoine Ménélas with the NAD-UQAC School
In this new course, Bob-Antoine Ménélas invites you to explore the design and development of augmented reality applications that leverage spatial computing.
