Alex Moffat
Level 3 Diploma in Computer Game Design
Alex first came to college to study a Level 3 game course four years ago. He recently graduated from our University Centre with a Higher National Diploma in Creative Media Production (Computer Game Design).
As well as learning key skills and getting to grips with different applications to prepare you for a career in the games and applications industry, students get vital work experience opportunities in the industry.
Alex recently spent time working with award winning games studio Bossa UK. As part of the experience, he road tested games and provided vital feedback to help in the final stages of development before the game went to market. He also had the opportunity to do some 3D work for the company, which gave him the chance to learn new techniques to approach a task.
“Going to college is a great opportunity to get contacts within the industry. We have worked with a few games studios on different projects. Spending time at Bossa was really interesting. There are a lot of technical skills you have to develop on top of studying at college. Working in industry allows you to do that. It also gives you the chance to see where you can take what you are studying and build on it to open up lots of different careers.”
