Skills for Future Art Ecosystems: Chris MacInnes



NB: This workshop is most relevant to people who are working with 3D already or want to get into game engines.

Are you a creative practitioner interested in exploring game engines, but have never used one before? In this workshop Chris MacInnes introduces you to Unity—a free game engine for Mac, Windows and Linux––by taking you through beginner-level, development workflows. Using provided assets, you will focus on creating dynamic behaviours i.e. making things spin, bounce, patrol paths and react to a viewer or player. These simple yet flexible techniques can eventually be chained together to create complex interactions and dynamic environments.

Christopher Macinnes is an artist based in London. Taking computing and networks as a starting point he works with software, hardware and organisms.

Please note that this workshop took place on Saturday 28th August 2021 and that this video is recording of the workshop.
