A fun learning experience to keep students passionate about creative media and develop their skills
the world’s leading educator in creative media industries will host four creative media camps during Ramadan to introduce students to the basic tools and techniques of Robotics, Programming, Photography and Animation.
The Robotics Camp will cover the basic structure of an autonomous robot and help students understand how different types of actuators, sensors and controllers come together to make the robot work. The Programming Camp will focus on games development, including the basics of programming using Scratch and Unity3D for quick prototyping and execution of games for PCs. The Photography Camp will give students and an overview of the complete process of capturing a still image from idea to composition, to outdoor and studio photography. The Animation Camp will cover practical modeling, lighting, shading, animation, and rendering.
