Skyup Academy
Animation school
Italy
Address:
Via San Gaetano, 113/a, Montebelluna, Province of Treviso, Italy
A small, specialised operation founded by an artist who came through Weta Digital, Animal Logic and Method Studios. Teaching is delivered by seniors from studios. There is no public Italian academic recognition.
The format is hybrid: on site in Montebelluna and live online classes delivered through Discord, which few European CG schools offer synchronously.
The Master in Computer Graphics 3D runs around 27 weeks for more than 1,000 hours. A Game Environments path also exists, with short masterclasses on Substance Designer, ZBrush, Unreal Engine 5 and Houdini. Officially certified training centre for Autodesk, Unreal Engine and Chaos Group.
The orientation leans clearly toward VFX, CG production and game environments, not narrative character animation.
Very small cohorts, 15 to 18 places announced, with no formal academic prerequisite. A graphics tablet is included.
Teaching is in Italian with an English option, and fees are not published. The roughly €700 to €9,700 range depending on programme comes from a third-party source, not the school.
