Ho Chi Minh City – 16 June 2022, SPARX* – a Virtuos Studio and APPROTRAIN (Applied Professional Training Corporation) sign an agreement about co-delivering a new training course aimed at teaching game asset creation pipeline and Unreal integration, as part of a new series of a short-term intensive professional program called “Pro-Class”.
Pro-Class is designed to cover the full art creation pipeline, from brief and concept to the final in-game asset. The course features a combination of practical art fundamentals, as well as technical workflows taught by seasoned seniors, leaders, and directors from Sparx*.

The first batches of the Pro-Class Program will be held by Arena Multimedia and MAAC Academy – subsidiaries of APPROTRAIN – in July 2022.
