Virtual Reality & Multi Media Park: La Scuola

The School of the Virtual Reality & Multi Media Park (http://www.edu.vrmmp.it, in Italian) trains professionals for the audiovisual and multimedia production. In a unique context, where the School is near a production centre and a technological centre for research and development (http://www.vrmmp.it), students can apprehend work methodologies and experience advanced techniques. The vertical, annual and biennial, programmes of the School, some in collaboration with the University of Torino, train technical/creative professionals.
Post-graduate Annual Master Programme in Screenwriting and Story Editing (9th edition): trains Screenwriters, Story Editors, Copywriters, Authors for TV Formats,
Documentary Filmmakers. Annual Master Programme in Video Technique, Effects and Compositing (5th edition): trains Video operators, Video Compositors, Video editors, Operators/Supervisors of Visual and Special Effects (VFX). Annual/Biennial Master Programme in Computer Graphics (5th edition): the opportunity of attending an annual or biennial programme stems from an evolving work market that requires both generic figures with a wide knowledge in CG production (modelling, animation, rendering), employed by communication agencies, and specific figures with a very specialized skill (in rigging, lighting, advanced rendering, character animation, dynamics effects), employed by cinema and commercial productions. People can also enrol into the second year after finishing the first year.
Post-graduate Annual Master Programme in Digital Entertainment (5th edition): this is a personalized version of the annual CG programme for the University of Torino, that also includes Game Design and Motion Capture techniques. Moreover, the School proposes short programmes in Sound techniques for cinema and video, with specialized workshops for boom operators, sound editors, sound mixers, sound designer and foley artists, and in Real-Time Computer Graphics for CG content creators for videogames.
The School collaborates with Università di Torino and Politecnico di Torino for second level courses in multimedia and virtual reality.
