About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're lucky to have Mr. Jonas Peterson, an expert in game art and photography, here to discuss his new course, the Certified Specialist Programme in Fine Art Photography for Games. Jonas, can you tell us what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely, I noticed a gap in the industry for comprehensive training that bridges the gap between traditional photography and game art. This course aims to fill that gap. HOST: That's fascinating. Can you share with us some current trends in game development that make this course particularly relevant? GUEST: Certainly! With the advent of photorealistic and ray-traced rendering in games, the demand for artists skilled in both photography and digital art is higher than ever. HOST: Speaking of skills, what are some of the challenges your students might face when learning these advanced techniques in image manipulation and post-processing? GUEST: The main challenge is developing an eye for detail and learning to visualize game assets as both photographic compositions and interactive environments. HOST: I can imagine. And looking towards the future, how do you see the role of fine art photography in game development evolving? GUEST: I believe we'll continue to see more blending of real-world photographic elements with digital art to create immersive, engaging game experiences. HOST: That sounds exciting! Before we wrap up, any advice for those considering enrolling in the Certified Specialist Programme in Fine Art Photography for Games? GUEST: Come prepared to learn and grow, both as an artist and a professional. The course will challenge you, but the end result will be a highly sought-after skillset and a lucrative career. HOST: Thank you so much for joining us today, Jonas. We're looking forward to seeing the impact this course has on the game development industry. GUEST: Thank you for having me. It's an honor to contribute to the growth and development of aspiring game artists and photographers.
