Here's what some of Gnomon's alumni working in the games industry are saying about their experiences:
"Gnomon definitely prepared me for games as well as TV and Film (I've worked in all 3). Video game cinematics are movies between game-play, so it is extremely important to understand the art of film making along with the technical knowledge of 3D animation. Gnomon is a great place to learn both!" - Peter Zoppi, Luxoflux Games
"Gnomon helped me to get to where I am by teaching me a wide range of skills. By learning from industry professionals, I was taught current tools and techniques that knowledge gave me confidence when entering the industry. While I specialize in character modeling and texturing, I understand how other aspects of pipelines work due to the many classes and variety of disciplines I learned while at Gnomon." - Derek Raymond, Red Eye Animation
"Coming from a traditional art background, Gnomon was exactly what I needed to make the cross over and strengthen my 3D skills. Gnomon has, by far, been the wisest investment I have made in myself. I've never regretted making that decision. Gnomon is the one school that focuses on teaching career driven individuals the tools that they need to make that transition to 3D in the least amount of time possible." - Oscar Lopez, Infinity Ward
