It’s the Italian Videogame Academy (AIV) and it’s one of the first academies in this sector in Italy that collaborates with the great players in the American industry such as Anthony Christov, Artistic Diretor, Pixar or Jim Moore, Concept Artist for the Star Wars cartoon series.
They are the AIV coaches that manage the Game Lab at the Officina – New Jobs Workshop, the project promoted by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale and Google to promote the acquisition of digital skills amongst young men and women and allow them to experiment with the professions of the future.
“Our methodology is based on a 90/10 division: 90% practice and 10% theory,” explains Andrea De Dominicis, AIV Business Manager “My advice? Take your chances!”
The careers page on the AIV website provides a good idea of the jobs that are available to its students.
In the interview, Andrea De Dominicis explains what AIV does and why it useful for young men and women who would like to specialize in this sector to attend the academy.
The next free appointment for young men and women, and their families, to learn more about AIV’s activities is on July 5 at 3 pm at the Academy in via Alessandria 112.
On July 8, there will be an open doors session for all those interested in the Masters Programme in Art Direction, including a special surprise for all those who have attended the Officina – New Jobs Workshop.
