There are several definitions of Mentorship. For us, it is a unique experience, built for you, based on your needs and that allows you to be in close contact with experienced professionals and with some of the greatest artists on the international scene. It not only focuses on the profession but can provide you with a complete view of the industry, to learn technical skills, soft skills, tips, inspirations, and advice for your projects and the development of your professional career. In addition, the Mentorship course provides a stimulating and supportive learning environment, where you can experiment, improve your skills, strengthen your confidence in yourself, and discover your potential.

The course is accessible to all levels of experience, from the new student or beginner, up to the expert and professional in the field.

Our Mentorship is structured to be customized according to your needs. The lessons will be structured with interactive and live sessions, once a week, in a weekend formula, and will include theoretical and practical lessons, use of software, study material, weekly assignments, review of projects, and specific Q&A sessions. You can take the course from anywhere and review it whenever you want!

Yes, we ask for participation as “live” sessions and it is not possible to use “on demand”. All lessons will be recorded so they can be reviewed if needed. But for this type of program are not allowed absences precisely to ensure the achievement of the objectives set. If you are unable to attend the lesson on the appointed day, a new date will be fixed, agreeing with your Mentor.

At the end of the Mentorship, you will receive a certificate of participation and you can update your project/reel portfolio.

Software:
The notions provided are applicable regardless of the software used; those adopted by our Mentors are the reference standards for the VFX/Animation and Game industry. This, however, does not prevent the student from being able to successfully follow the course using complementary software already known to him.

Hardware:
You will need a dedicated graphics card and a computer that meets the minimum requirements for reference software that will be adopted during the journey.
