CG Spectrum launches New Live Short Courses
Newly launched Short Courses provide an accessible, 100% remote way to gain skills in Game Design, Animation, and VFX through live mentor-led training.
PRESS RELEASE: September 23, 2025, Global
CG Spectrum, a leading online education provider for the creative industries, has announced the launch of its new Short Course program. A series of affordable, 100% remote live training options designed to bridge the gap between formal qualifications and industry certification.
The new Short Courses give aspiring creatives an accessible entry point into FX, Animation, Digital Art, Modelling, and Game Development, or the opportunity to upskill. Each program runs live alongside industry professionals for six weeks, making it ideal for both complete beginners and intermediate learners.
Unlike many online short courses, these programs are:
- Delivered live and mentor-led, not pre-recorded or static LMS modules.
- Delivered in small, interactive classes for personalised guidance and collaboration
- Structured with demos, hands-on practice, and Q&A to build practical, studio-ready skills
- Taught by current industry professionals and seasoned veterans with real-world experience
- Focused on portfolio-ready outcomes that give new students a true taste of the CG Spectrum experience
CG Spectrum has built its reputation on connecting students with seasoned industry mentors who have worked at top studios worldwide. The Short Courses continue this tradition by offering direct interaction with professionals who can share real-world insights and techniques rarely taught in traditional classrooms.
“When people hear ‘short course,’ they often think of outdated videos or static learning modules. What we are offering is live, mentor-led learning in small groups where students can apply the very latest skills in real time, and learn directly from current industry professionals and seasoned veterans. Our goal is to give students confidence, help them build portfolio skills, and create work they can be proud of. It represents the core of CG Spectrum’s teaching philosophy to Learn. Create. Iterate.,” said Jeremy Chinn, Chief Operating Officer at CG Spectrum.
The Short Courses initiative reflects CG Spectrum’s mission to make creative education more flexible, accessible, and industry-relevant for the next generation of artists, animators, and game developers, while reinforcing its position as a global leader in online creative education.
