Unity3D is a development environment for both 3D and 2D applications. Its versatility and easy handling allow independent developers and artists to distribute their projects on several platforms such as mobile devices, web, consoles and Windows / Mac / Linux applications.

As a participant in the workshop, you will learn how to develop applications exploring all the required bases for a good understanding of Unity 3D. The training will provide a strong base that will allow you to complete projects ranging from interactive artwork to video games.
