Our Level 2 Diploma in Creative Media Production and Technology (Games, Esports and Media) will help you develop a range of creative digital skills. This hybrid year combines Games Development and Content Creation for Esports, and is designed to help you find your passion between these two pathways.
Whether you want to code the next indie hit, produce professional video content, or manage a live Esports tournament, this course gives you the foundation to turn a hobby into a career. You will learn valuable industry skills including game design theory, graphic and digital design, pixel art, video editing, presentation skills and event management.
The combined course covers a diverse range of topics, including Game Development and Pixel Art, where you will learn the fundamentals of how games are made, from initial concepts and “retro” pixel art to playable mechanics. You will also study Video Editing and Graphic Design, mastering the software used by YouTubers and streamers to create high-quality, engaging content.
You will also delve into Presentation and Events, gaining the confidence to speak on camera (shoutcasting) and the organisational skills to run your own live gaming events. You will have access to our state-of-the-art facilities at Huddersfield Centre, including our Esports suite and Macs.
