Hands on tools, every month
The ongoing learning programme: monthly masterclasses at the Imisi 3D lab in Lagos, and community meetups running continuously since 2017.
Masterclasses
Tool-specific. Practical. In person.
Masterclasses run monthly at the Imisi 3D lab in Lagos — always in person, on Tuesdays from 10am to 4pm. Each session goes deep on a single tool or workflow with a single facilitator, from Lens Studio to Unreal Engine to the latest AI-assisted XR design tools.
