3. Game Writing: Storytelling through Video Game Design
The course will help you to design and write your own games - learn how to generate and develop your ideas, how to structure a story-rich game, and how creating a narrative and storyworld will enhance all games, even those that are not story based! Learn to create a compelling storyworld for your video game by developing ideas, characters and a memorable narrative. You'll be given knowledge and tasks to cement and practice what you've learned. Create Immersive StoryworldsUnderstand how writing for games differs from writing for other media. Learn which aspects of a game contribute to a memorable narrative. Discover how story is conveyed through games. Practice developing an idea from start to end. Storytelling: Arguably the Most Important Aspect of Game Design. Games that are "story-rich" have a deep story to uncover as you play the game, and have an extra dimension compared to other forms of media in that the player themselves is a part of that story. The storyworld makes up so much of a game and it is communicated in many different ways. It's everything from the artwork and the audio design to the dialogue between characters and the player themselves. As a game designer or a game writer, you are responsible for shaping this world and conveying it to the player. Content Overview This course aims to help you develop your skills as a designer of games. We'll talk about what makes games a unique form of media, how to tell good stories, how to generate ideas, and how story can be conveyed through games (spoiler: there are LOTS of different ways!). These are the core sections of the course, and we'll be adding bonus sections soon. Story structure will be the first bonus (coming soon!) and each new section will provide new ways to improve your game design techniques. Each of the course videos is made using the Unity game engine, and we communicate information within this game setting. As well as video lectures, this course contains 'Reflection' moments where we ask you to pause and think about what your answers to specific questions would be, "Missions" where we ask you to do some writing (and then show you our own example), and worksheets to guide your ideas. We also encourage you to share your ideas and give feedback to others. Once you complete this course, you'll be able to design story-rich games using various different methods to convey your ideas...

I have not removed the B2M lectures, they are still there if you wish to learn it as well as SA. I have also included many tweaks and updates in various parts of this ever growing course, which now sits at 44 hours of invaluable content. Enjoy.***************************************************************Creating environment art for video games can be a technical endeavor, but at its core, it's an art form. Simply pulling assets from an online store, and dropping them into an off the shelf game engine isn't enough in today's competitive industry. You need fundamental art skills, and if you want to stand out from the crowd. you need to create your own art and present your skills. With 30 years of game development experience in an art and design capacity, I will show you, from an artist's perspective, how to create your own game ready 3D scene from scratch, as if you were working in an industry studio. You will start literally from a blank page, go through art fundamentals and the whole asset creation process, and use that knowledge to construct a visually stunning 3D game environment presented in Unity. You will create every asset yourself. You will not be using library assets. Creating art is at the heart of this course, but creating visuals is not just about the art, it's also about the ideas and the design that spawn the art. You will start at the beginning, at the design phase, and learn how to extract art related information from a game design document and create a map for your scene. Create an art brief for your own project. Create a Map / Level design. To create stunning concept art, you need a firm understanding of art fundamentals. The Horizon Line1, 2 and 3 point perspectiveLight, shadow and valueColorI will then take you through the process of creating concept art, and show you techniques you can use to create quick speed paintings based on the fundamentals you have learned. Create Concept art from scratchYou will break down the visual brief and the concept art into assets and create a plan to build them yourself to a professional standard. With that behind you, you will move into the biggest part of the course, building your scene. Learn to use 3DS Max and Substance Painter. If you're a beginner, I will teach you how to use 3DS Max, an industry standard modelling package. If you're intermediate and you know how to use it, you can skip this part. But once you've mastered the basics, you'll begin creating a white box environment based on the design and the concept in previous lectures. Create white box environments using basic modelling techniques. Finally we'll move into more advanced modelling and UV mapping techniques, and build ALL the components for our scene, using our white box as a guide. We'll create PBR textures in Substance Painter; export everything from 3DS Max, and drop it into Unity where we'll build the scene using the assets you have created. Create detailed, final assetsUV MapCreate textures in Substance PainterBuild and light the scene in UnityThis course is perfect for anybody seriously wishing to pursue a career as an environment artist in the games industry and would like to experience the process and pipeline from scratch. It's suitable for beginners to Intermediate levels. The more advanced artists may find that you're going over old ground in some areas, but it can still be a worthy refresher course. Over time, the course will get regular updates and keep on trend with industry techniques and standards. New content will also be added in the future. This IS NOT an animation course and it IS NOT a character modelling course. Both of those are very specific disciplines within the game industry, and here, we are primarily focusing on highly detailed, quality, environment creation...

19. Orchestral Music Composition & Music Theory for Video Games
Learn the composition, NOT the unnecessary technicalities! This course does not contain FMOD, WWise, or any other middleware. Game composers do not need to know how to use these softwares. The sound designers or developers of the game will integrate your music for you. The only reason a composer would ever need to know how to use these softwares (and why you see so many articles telling you to LEARN FMOD) is because you need to understand the logic and principles behind how game audio actually works. You just need to understand how music is implemented into a game, not actually implement it yourself. Developers just want to make sure you know how, and what they mean when they ask you to compose 'adaptive music for trigger zones', or 'music tags for each loop'. This course will give you all of that knowledge, without the need to learn any additional softwares! Familiarity with audio middleware is a useful skill. At the very least, it affords us valuable insight into the process by which our music is incorporated into game projects. In my experience, most development teams prefer to handle their own audio implementation. - Winifred Phillips (God of War, Assassin's Creed, Little Big Planet, et al.)What will you gain from completing the coursePsychological music theory secrets to manipulate players into feeling specific emotionsThe game composer's job, mindset, and approach to composing for gamesHow the orchestra works, and how to set up a virtual orchestra in your DAWCompositional guidelines for writing melodies, basslines, harmonies, chords, and rhythmsHow to score for emotion, setting, and mood/atmosphereGame-specific compositions like stingers, main titles, pause menus, multiplayer menus, character music, etc. How to ensure your music is immersive and doesn't become distracting at any pointHow adaptive music works, and which audio-integration techniques game developers may ask you to compose forHow to compose for various genres of video game, including Linear, Non-Linear, and InteractiveEssential techniques to mix and master orchestral music, and get your music sounding balanced, wide, and professionalExporting the files, and what audio format game developers are looking forAdditional Content: Various downloadable PDFs and links to additional reading/studyProjects throughout so that I can see your progress, and offer feedback on your workAdditional lecture hidden into the course wrap-upAn ENTIRE section dedicated to in-depth mixing techniques, taken from my EDM course to give you all the tools you need to achieve a modern, wide, and full sound - it's almost as if you're getting two courses for the price of one! I share everything I know with youEverything I teach you in this course has taken me years to learn. You're gaining 10+ years of game music composition knowledge in one complete course. The game industry is growing astronomically each year. It's going to need some talented composers to provide music for every new game! What's in it for me?Honestly, the gratification of seeing students succeed and learn. I am very passionate about teaching, and I truly believe that we should all be helping each other grow as composers and music producers. Musicians are extremely tight-lipped, and secretive about their techniques. I simply don't understand this. Which is why I am sharing this course with you to teach you the secrets behind why some game scores are so emotionally powerful, and why others just fall flat. Requirements: You will need to have a DAW (FL Studio, Ableton, GarageBand) and an ability to use the software to practice the techniques I teach you. You will also need to have a very basic understanding of music theory. Throughout the course, I am talking about notes, chords, minor, and major. I have tried to simplify everything as best as I can, but you will need this basic theory to be able to understand the concepts! So if you're ready to learn professional game music composition, music theory secrets, mixing, and mastering, buy the course and take your skills to the next level. There is a 30-day money back guarantee, so if you dislike the course (or me), you can receive a full refund. There really is nothing to lose!...
